Pickles.

That was civil.

My son goes to Epping Boys HS, the one that was closed on Friday due to a student with COVID-19. He was away at school camp from the Wed morning and did not arrive back until mid afternoon Fri. We were advised by the school that even so he needed to self isolate until further notice, which we received around 7PM Saturday saying that the school would be open Monday and ~70 students & staff had been classified as having 'close contact' to the original student and they would need to do the full 14 days.

We live ~700M from EBHS and the same distance from the Baptist Care centre, basically in the centre of the 'hot zone' that is Macquarie Park. We have toilet paper, food and Netflix and are intending to "Keep calm and carry on", if we end up having to do the full 14 days at some stage or one of us tests positive then we will deal with it, no point worrying about something that may [or in our case probably will] happen.

Can anyone tell me where the hotspots are in victoria please?

Apparently if one person sneezes, a hundred others crap themselves, hence the need for so much toilet paper!

Well if it carries on like this I am going to have to order 'Soft 3-ply "Copy" Paper' from our office supply people.

Well the city area apparently has a few cases and i heard just today that there is a potential case here in Morwell.
Expect more around the city with all the events running as normal.

My two oldest grandchildren are going to Japan in a week and a half. I probably would not go, but they are looking forward to it and perhaps more to the point, paid for it months ago - and they are legally adults. They will be back a week before Easter. The TAFE they are going to has told them they are self quarantining for two weeks when they get back, and the younger kids schools told their father today that they don't want them back for two weeks after the girls get back, in other words, for the rest of the term.

So their father is bringing the two younger ones up here the day before they arrive back. So I will have them for three weeks instead of the planned two.

Steve you know full well what would happen.

Sheilas & Blokes getting very ****ed & embarrassing themselves & our country.

Sheilas dropping their pants at the first ****ed opportunity.

Much vomiting all over the shop.


Actually, it sounds like a good day out.
