I've written the draft of the census results. One thing that is clear from the census results is that I need a proof reader. Any volunteers to proof read the draft?

We had good weather for once, so I went for a reasonably long (43km or so) bike ride and then climbed [a very small mountain] (https://www.doc.govt.nz/parks-and-recreation/places-to-go/auckland/places/mount-william-area/tracks/mount-william-walkway/) that we've been meaning to check out for a while.

Nice! I also went for a bike ride, with one of my kids (7yo). About 10km, so they did really well!

Yes, the weather was awesome!

Hang on, the Bombay hills aren't a euphemism, that's a real suburb? Holy shit...

Yeah New Zealand has a few references to British India. The Coromandel Peninsula is named after the Coromandel Coast in East India.

Huh, choice!

Fun!

I can if it's not until next week.

Thanks for the offer but you're too slow. Results post is up: https://lemmy.nz/post/12001861

You can still proof read it, though 😆

Ah I didn't see it. Thanks for the link, interesting.

On a casual read through: "satellite" is misspelt, "fibre" is randomly capitalized in the section on fibre quality, typo "team" for "term" in the ethnicity section, and in the employment status section "less" should be "fewer". 😊

Thanks! I have updated them all.
