Yep, ISOLATION is the worldwide name of the game now. This from yours -

The government is in discussions with airlines about continuing some international flights for the purpose
of bringing Australians back from overseas, and for continuing the movement of goods and freight.

is good to see as i've seen two interviews in two days of Australians being stuck overseas failing in all their efforts to get home. One young couple stuck in Bolivia with all borders around them closed. And one other young lady, dang, forget where she is, with the same problem.

It was extra good yesterday, and today, to see so many extra workers in Banana Joe's ..

Run off their feet, and still without toilet paper. It was weird finding
the new little shop in another part the Marrickville business area with some.

I didn't hang around today for the one pub i go to up there (20 min. walk away) to open, but yesterday most all of the old guys who bet in the little section for that were there as usual.

Also, ooi, the number of people in the pub looked about the same as any other normal everyday
Thursday. We are very fortunate in these times which are so extra hard for so many millions.

Good luck in finding your sports. The females are easily as good to watch as
most men's games. They should have been given more tv time long before now.
