Well, not literally.
The bus suffered some more mechanical issues this morning, as the Armistice Tour convoy set off for it’s Northland tour. As a result, we are sorry to inform you that we will be postponing our Northland tour. We are truly sorry to those of you who were hoping to checkout our Mobile Daktory, but we will be making it up to you at a later date.
We will be visiting the Auckland electorates regardless of Mary Jane’s status, as we will be showing up with our support vehicles, Stashin Wagon and the Bongo Van, if she is not working on the day.
