Rare MMDown Under Posted April 13, 2020 Author #651 Share Posted April 13, 2020 (edited) For fellow Queenslanders breakfast of scrambled eggs and parsley Toowoomba Free Range Eggs jumbo 1500 birds per hectare outdoor stocking density. Hens pecking on green grass gets me every time. Not perfect, but better than Coles! $6.50 Glorious sunny day at the Coast. Found a new small beach on the Broadwater. We let the dogs go for a brief fly along one end of the deserted beach. They are now dead to the world!

I heard that a fair percentage of those caught in Victoria were youngish males. Leigh This idiot was originally in isolation at his girlfriends house, (they came in on the Vasco de Gama) they fell out, so the police moved him into a hotel with other Eastern Staters, (WA travellers were isolated on Rotto). He then skipped off three times, all on hotel video cam. Police hauled him back, off he went again. So he got arrested at his girlfriends house, thrown into jail for 12 days and the rest is history. Now that has got to be DUMB. Meanwhile, everyone else who was isolated with him were out and about on Apr 7th. No brainer, He'll find out what compulsory isolation is like now. He's got 30 days of it. 😷🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Kruzer Posted April 16, 2020 #659 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Into our last week of Level 4 in N Z . Jacinda will decide next Monday if we can drop back to Level 3. If so it will take place next Thursday to allow those who can open to get prepared . Level 3 not that much different except takeaways can open if they are drive through and weddings / funerals can have groups of 10 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aus Traveller Posted April 16, 2020 #663 Share Posted April 16, 2020 The Australian shut-down hasn't been as tight as the NZ one, and there seems to be some difference within Australia. I have the impression that the lock-down situation in NSW and Victoria is a bit tougher than Queensland. I also have the impression that some Police have issued infringements notices that seem to be a bit 'over the top'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are only over the top if you were fined doing the wrong thing when you had a legitimate reason for being out, even then people did not social distance.

Some of our fines have just been handed out straight off, apparently to try to scare people more that they are serious after the serious lack of enforcement up front.

In WA over Easter there were 3 fines, each $1,000.00. Whilst we have strict ISO regulations, it seems common sense seems to be the go. They used drones over the beaches, and did say ground level photo's give a totally different outlook to the drone pics, which they did when shown side by side. We read some "odd" fines being issued over east. Edited April 16, 2020 by dizzy1948 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the people who got fined after putting their outing photos on facebook. Too bad the outing was last July. Senior police here in Vic have issued advice that there has been a little too little discretion and too much heavy handedness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know that. You could put off a wedding, but you couldn't put off a funeral for those who have strong religious beliefs. A friend has lost two family members this week - no funerals for either, but a wake later when all the family can attend. I must admit I have enjoyed having access to take aways, although we never bought take aways prior to virus lockdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

possum52 Posted April 18, 2020 #674 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Yesterday was our younger granddaughter's second birthday. We had a video call with her while she opened her present from us. She was so excited. Later in the day after they had dinner we were all involved in a Skype call to sing happy birthday - all the grandparents and our daughter and son in law and grandsons. It was a happy time but sad as well. Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
