I'm confused!

My brother in Houston, Texas, sent me a text this morning - with a picture of his vaccination certificate. He has just had his second shot.

Road rage and toilet paper fights in Vic/Melbourne. Most people must have no fridge at home poor sods. A five day lock down ( with shops open) has caused the feeble minded to binge shop again [biggrin] Some of us poor sods would love to be able to stay home for five days off[bawl].

The near punch ups in the car park and a lot of rather descriptive very loud discussions while I was shutting down tonight seemed to be over car parking spaces or right of way. Glad I'm home with a beer.

Cheers all[thumbsupbig]
I got mine

A word of caution here, be careful what you wish for in retirement.[bighmmm][biggrin]

The restaurant we booked offered to deliver to us .... given that they'd already have the stock in the fridge for a big weekend (Chinese New Year and Valentines Day) it seems fair.

Reported in the news this morning that the asthmatic who had the nebuliser declared it on entering quarantine and twice asked if it was OK to use it and was even offered extra Ventolin if required. No wonder Andrews expressed a reluctance to "come down heavily on a bloke in intensive care" yesterday.

Expect the Govt to now say the person is lying......not the first time.

And now because of this, new overseas arrivals have the pleasure of full bag searches as if they are smuggling in contraband.

So the Age snuck into intensive care and interviewed him ....

FYI, the asthma nebulisers I've seen have fitted face masks and shouldn't be spraying aerosols all over the place, since you don't release them until you've completed the dose and at that point you turn them off. And, as he said, the more common thing is to use a spacer that wouldn't create the same issue (a spacer is a large bottle like thing that you puff the Ventolin into and suck out of until the dose is done).

He might be more than 5k away from Costco. And buying for other people as well.

NB, it is a current photo - see the dates on the board?
