As a Sydney sider I can tell you things are really serious here, stay at home is the message, one person in the household allowed to go shopping for essentials, police on horseback patrolling the streets (true) and $1K on the spot fines for not wearing masks, where and when is it all going to end?

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens for what I told her I paid for them. pd

We received our SA Border permits this morning (finally).

Of course this simply moves the cursor to the next problem. The removalist has gone bust so now we are scrambling to find a new one with just over a week until we have to leave this place...

I certainly would not want to be living in any large regional or capital city in these times.
We also saw on TV news last night the police patrols taking place, the two shown on horseback no face masks either.

PD. You and I are old enough and been around enough to know what this is all about. Its all about control, how many past governments have tried and failed their various ways to obtain more control over the general population. Its here now, handed on a plate. What is happening is the thin end of the wedge for sure. Sad

life is a bed of gidgee coals and a camp oven

The new figures are in for NSW. 50 new cases in last 24 hours. Not getting any better and according to the “experts” likely to get worse before it improves.

A lot of you are aware that most of my extended family as well as many friends live in the UK. Talk to many of them regularly and they used to tell me of the dozens, hundreds and even thousands of people dying all around them over there in the middle of their pandemic. It sure is much better now.

They didn’t have border controls and effective lockdowns and many of them were astounded as to why not..

We are very fortunate over here. When this thing hit they made some hard decisions that worked and we haven’t seen the devastation seen overseas.

But back on to borders I think it will take just one case to come to Qld from NSW with the virus and we will have a hard border here.

Fingers crossed for Silverton. 🤞🏻

Fingers crossed for Silverton. 🤞🏻 Just over nine weeks away but going on current conditions it could very well be a non event.

Maybe bounce it over the border to Oodla Wirra or Olary?

See where VICTORIA is tell residents in NSW to come home as the border could be shut with a big lock.

They are not reporting that on Qld news yet but not surprised. Our CHO has been saying it for a week now.
