We don't have any furniture in South Australia?
Priorities seem ****** up.


Likewise, I was delivered a car from interstate two weekends ago. I was shocked that the driver was allowed over the border. When he got to SA he was told he needed a Covid test despite his reassurances from the Vic Gov before leaving, advising he wouldn't need one. Given it was 5.30am when he arrived at the border, he dropped the car off then returned to get the test when the testing station opened at 9am. I had expected a delay in getting the car for up to 12 months. Seems odd to me too.

The driver said he'd been to Qld, NSW and SA in the past 12 months but I didn't quiz him on the timelines and how that equated with the lockdowns.

Looking at the lineups in Sydney they really do need a reclassification on exactly what is essential services.

At least Victoria will lock down properly if they feel they need to. While Gladys continues to deem rug, fashion, jewellery and kids stationery retail stores essential and people have a reason to go out, NSW haven't got a chance of getting back to normal.

'Stay home, unless you want to go window shopping at your local Westfield or go for coffee with friends at Bondi. Actually, don't stress, I'll just pin in it on the immigrants in Fairfield.' :lol:

I would have had to had I cared to know right now - I may look it up later...

I remember that Comic Court won in 1950 because I scored a ride on him in 1952 when I was 8 years old and the Tremellen family had him at their property in Bowden for stud duties.

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is lockdown number 5.

One, Two, Three, Four, Five
Everybody in the car, so come on, let's drive
To the liquor store around the corner
Coz we need some gin and juice
And rolls for the toilet

I just had my first experience at seeing Oysters Kirkpatrick speak in a presser, I can't believe there was a comparison with Miss Helena.

I can understand why we are strengthening the boarder, but why are we once again banning dancing, reducing capacity limits, etc?

Once it gets here increase the local restrictions.
Until it gets here, stick to stopping it getting here.
