Coronavirus: Prepper sitting pretty during lockdown

From Morning Report, 8:46 am on 17 April 2020

While most of us have been queuing, sometimes for hours, to get into the supermarket during the lockdown, one Wellington man hasn't had to go once.

Richard Hovey says he has about six months worth of food stashed at his house, and even still has fresh produce in the fridge.

He didn't panic buy ahead of the level four restrictions like the rest of us, but was prepared to have to weather a severe storm, or a big earthquake.

He spoke to Corin Dann about how his lockdown is going.
