Don't worry Moops, I'm sure they'll get moors.
Is that the same as a negative test, or have they just not found it?
Very nice!

Dumb and dumber #1
"Really concerningly overnight we saw a person come directly from Greater Sydney, she turned up at our checkpoint here at the Gold Coast Highway, had lied to us about where she had been, so our diligent police turned her around," he said.
"She then attended the M1 checkpoint and attempted to gain entry there, because she made another attempt to come in and we knew where she had come from, she was given an infringement notice for $4000."
And #2:
"The 17 people placed in hotel quarantine from NSW over the past few days all arrived in Melbourne by air without a permit, according to the Victorian Health Department. So we have people who came out of the northern beaches on Saturday and Sunday"
"We have some of those 17 who are in hotel quarantine because they arrived at an airport despite being asked not to leave the northern beaches"
That'll be a fun Christmas and New Year in hotel quarantine which they'd be funding.

This is probably more Xmas related than pandemic, but - unsalted butter? Had to get some obscure brand as it's all gone. And no icing sugar! Looks like everyone is making cakes this year
Exactly the same thing happened when we locked down up here in March.
With my wife recently diagnosed as a diabetic we decided to just get home delivery.
Mince .....nope sold out
Toilet Paper.....nope sold out
Self Raising Flour ....nope sold out
Castor Suger .....nope sold out
Butter.....nope sold out
Yeast .....nope sold out
Took us weeks to get even the basics , items like rice , pasta we impossible for a while although there was plenty of veggies all the way.
The panic buying is ridiculous.
It was interesting to me to watch all that happening in Oz, I was in PNG, and there wasn’t, from memory, many shortages; face masks and hand sanitizer were the notable exceptions. I had a few conversations with my family on the Central Coast and they remarked about the toilet paper shortage, whilst the local supermarket in Port Moresby that I frequent had pallets of toilet paper in the isles in anticipation of a run on toilet paper(sorry, bad pun), panic buying, never happened really.
Well done. Someone by Boris a comb for Christmas.

COVID, actually: How bumbling Boris cruelled Britain's Christmas
The British people have extra reason to feel cheated this Christmas, having been whispered pandemic fantasies by a Prime Minister who believes optimism is a substitute for hard truths.

I was talking to an old bloke I know around that time and made some comment about all these idiots panic buying....yeah, he said, pretty stupid "I'll be alright though, I've got three full fridges and a freezer at home, just bought another freezer to be safe, they were selling out quick"....the bloke lives by himself, wife's dead and he eats like a sparrow. Don't know how he was off for toilet paper but I'm pretty sure he'd have had that covered.
Tis weird that 'over here' this second wave is a lot more widespread than the first, but the apathy seems a lot higher. So much so that there's been no panic buying of the usuals.
I'm not sure how Ontario is going to react now that their premier has just announced a total lockdown from dec 26th (coincidence) onwards.
Dirty east coasters.
C'mon vaccine!

I suppose people are becoming inured to it all now.
Yet some people don't believe in inurance!

That's fine, but what happens when you really need it?
