I have removed a few posts.  I found them extremely funny, but they were expressing political views.  You have been asked not to do this.  Please

[Paul9221]

Sorry about that!

[Giles]

No probs…

[Graeme]

I'm sorry too…

... Even if it was funny!

PSA : when planning your vacation, and the community says “bike friendly” - they don’t mean taking your beach cruisers onto the highway… speed limit is literally 55 once they turn left into the road... SMH

How's the quarantine going, @neph93 ?

Thanks for asking! This was me on Monday waiting in the car for my test:

Gotta say that I’m impressed with the way my local authority are tackling this. Very effective, very organised. There was an outbreak in both the high schools in my town connected to a Halloween party and a game of Bandy. It meant 300 people had to quarantine and be tested. It took the local authority two days to test everyone. Without having to do anything I was phoned up by the trace team, asked some questions and had the rules of quarantine explained, then given a date and time for my test. The test took two minutes and I was admitted at exactly the time I was told to meet. The result was available 20 hours later. It was negative too, so I’m happy. Back at work tomorrow [emoji1417]

I think the sad fact is that unless you live in an authoritarian regime, Covid will be a thing, until we either get herd immunity or develop a vaccine.  Humans are just not very sensible animals….

Jupp… to be fair, the game of bandy was within the rules of what was allowed at that point. They tightened those rules nationally a day or two later.

As for the party it was in a grey area. Allowed as far as numbers are concerned (although again, not anymore), but as you say, humans are humans, so expecting a gang of 16-18 years olds to socially distance while at a party is like Canute expecting the tide to turn back at his royal decree.

Of course, they won't.  How can you conveniently exchange body fluids when socially distancing?

[neph93]

Well they are back to texting nudes for now… [emoji1]

Bandy definition taken from Oxford: adjective
adjective: bandy; comparative adjective: bandier; superlative adjective: bandiest
(of a person's legs) curved so as to be wide apart at the knees.
or Bandy sport similar to a pick up game of Hockey?

no cases here in australia, even better in perth. 7 months without any community transmission. no such thing as masks or social distancing.. 

[Giles]

It's a disease that affects humans mostly…
