	Description:		At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. Moving On from Covid: 7/10 "Far from perfect, but we will take it. There's a sense that the light is not just at the end of the tunnel, it's actually quite close now." The Stuff New Zealand Isn't Good at: 3/10 "Bit of a wakeup call this week. We had the infrastructure report, the mental health report, and the Auckland report. Not one of them said anything like, "tell you what New Zealand you are nailing it." It is a nation a bit adrift and without the zeal and determination to change a lot." The Literacy Education Report: 2/10 "Even worse than the other reports, we are failing our kids and our kids are failing." Consumer Confidence: 2/10 "We are in the doldrums." Rotorua and Emergency Housing: 2/10 "At last, the mayor speaks out for her city. But then, did she? The letter to the government only came out because of the Official Information Act. What happened to loud and vocal leadership and standing up for your patch?" Air New Zealand: 8/10 "New York, here we come. Staff are being rehired, tickets are being sold, and real journeys are being planned." Ash Barty: 8/10 "The ability to chart your own course and march to your own drum at such a young age is something to be marvelled at." Finland: 7/10 "Happiest place on Earth, again. Is it the freezing temperatures and fresh salmon, do you think?" Highlanders v Blues: 8/10 "Because there will be a crowd. There will be real people from real world having fun, not dying, not freaking out, not told to stay at home, and just being normal. Aaah, the simple pleasures."
