    A good enough reason to lock down Brisbane. With no complaints.

    “It was an awful Christmas and terrible for the staff,” Hutchison said. “It is just unstoppable. We are sitting ducks.”
    Across England, Covid outbreaks in care homes are rising again, after months of far lower infection rates than in the spring as a result of control measures.

    All I could afford today @ WW is a couple of packets of Pre-Xmas Mince Pie Chuckouts. $ .75c PP. "O Poor me, O poor me, what have I doneth to be so ****ing Poor?". Shakespeare, William.



    Edit. Just looked at the WW slip & found they were only .75 cents PP.

    Especially as I avoid the holes.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    But, but, but, you are supposed to eat the holes. Aren't you?

    Manufacturers must be making a Motza. I wonder what they do with the Holey bit, make mini Patties out of them I suspect.



    Sorry, I forgot you are a truckie so I now understand about you missing the holes to save on Tyre repairs & Service.

    Besides, was she positive it was his leg or was she just looking for an excuse to (wait for it) break it off? Cheap plonk can do that to a girl you know. I'd like to think of a humorous reply,

    Steady on bob, don't push it, there are some amongst us that do not even like to smile.

    Melbourne had a mutated virus ..... and beat it

    Turns out one of the virus variants circulating in Vic was a precursor to the UK variant and was more infectious than the original one (but possibly less so than the UK variant):

    "A mutant strain of the coronavirus which scientists believe was a precursor to the highly infectious British variant escaped hotel quarantine in Victoria in June during the state's second wave but the public was not told about it at the time.

    Professor Damian Purcell, head of the molecular virology laboratory at the Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity in Melbourne, said the new strain infected at least 37 people in Victoria before being brought under control by Victoria's lockdown

    The information had not been released until now, he said, because “we did not want to spook people that we had a real problem with mutants here”.

    “We expect to see them. They are going to keep coming,” Professor Purcell said."

    The good news is that isolation, masks and hygiene were effective against it.

    I'd like to think of a humorous reply, but I've just read a news report that Trump supporters who invaded the Capitol building defecated in the building, and spread their excrement all over the place. Perhaps the UK should lend Biden a company of Gurkhas to stand alongside a company of US Marines as a " ceremonial " guard, a little bit of Kukri music should be just the thing. Bastards.

    Well done, Melbourne. They've shown the way. I've noticed up here people are very serious about doing the right thing, at least in our neck of the woods. I'm confident we can beat this.

    Back to the virus. [ unfortunately]

    Queensland announced a woman infected with the highly-contagious strain of coronavirus flew into the state on a Jetstar flight from Melbourne.
    The state has recorded zero new coronavirus cases on the first day of lockdown in Brisbane.


    One new case of community transmission has been recorded in New South Wales as the state clamps down on the potential spread of a mutated virus from international arrivals.
    NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said the overnight case had been linked to the Berala cluster as she thanked the 25,500 people who have been tested in the last 24 hours.
