You'd think they'd set up testing stations in Gawler, Munno, the Beff, Salisbury and Parafield.

Get on the front foot to where the cluster is, I know of people that waited 5-6 hours yesterday then got turned away as they ran out of testing kits, how many of these will go back and do it all again?

Riding my pushie down Prospect Road backs your statement up, it's bloody scary, pretty much ride covering the brake which is a shame as it's a lovely little descent all the way down from Fitzroy Terrace.

Old fella that used to work here lived there in an absolute mansion, he used to ride his buckle wheeled push bike to work every day, do every skerrick of overtime available, eat only fruit that he grew or bread that his wife baked, bludge half durries off other employees without ever buying any himself and brought a few properties in Glenelg. He worked here for 30+ years and was filthy rich.

He retired and then died suddenly within a few months, he was an icon here.

One thing I've noticed is those that have stacks of money have it because they avoid spending it.

Get tested alright but Covid might be the least of your worries of what you might catch there [emoji6]

48 - 72 hours is standard for the test. Depending on where the test was done and how quickly it gets to the labs etc. For example my lad had one done previously and it was back within around 24hrs. This is mainly due to the less tests going through but also he got the test done at the WCH, which has the labs on site.

With this many tests that will get out to 48hours I would say, but I know the government are putting more resources to the labs and the contact tracing as that's where they see the critical points at the moment.

Maybe tests will keep coming back around that 30hr mark. Who knows.
