Just heard on the radio WA will be closed to all unnecessary travel from all states and territories as of 11:59 pm Sunday night
Unless it’s essential services you will be told to go back
Only true blue (yellow) sandgropers will be allowed to return home
People in WA can’t travel between regions unless it’s essential as of yesterday
I wonder which state is next???
Are we expecting total lockdown next week???
Interesting times.....
I wouldn't have thought so.Quote:

It's going to be hard to put a lot of this stuff back in the box when this is all over.
Well that's all good then.Quote:

Not when we all have to pay for it.Quote:

We and several of our friends did all this without any assistance. A few weeks off (not for the Dads) when kids come. Paid for child care or modified hours as the kids got older...
Why the **** should businesses or the public purse pick up this? What ****s me more - subsidised daycare for Unemployed single mums!

That option is of course under consideration, & ya'd have to be a ****** to mention one's perilous situation if that were not a consideration. And it most definitely is.Quote:

if someone were to offer me anywhere near what it's worth, it would've been sold yesterday, but they are virtually impossible to sell at the moment,..which is totally understandable (No way I'd buy such a thing in the current climate), no matter how good a car they are,....and they are VERY good.. Don't believe me re saleability?....Check out the stock of any HSV Dealer & see how many HSVs they cannot sell?
I suspect there may be a few forum members who may have to sell a few "hard earned" assets to just to survive.
I ain't complaining, well I am I suppose, but that's just the way it is.

I was just playing. When I was made redundant a few things went.
Fortunately I managed to go freelance - make a heap of coin quickly and buy the items back.
What’s hurting? Investment returns? I know my old boy is down quite a bit at the moment on his Super and shares.
The market will bounce after a big reset....
