Wish You Were Here on Manchester Street

Saturday 23 May 2020

An illuminated 'Wish You Were Here' sign on Manchester Street, near the corner with St Asaph Street next to Elephants, a mural by Owen Dipple. Taken during the first weekend of New Zealand being at Covid-19 Level 2, the first weekend during which bars were open.

I sent this picture to my family in the UK, wishing they could be here in New Zealand and not on the other side of the world during the pandemic.
