Yeah how does that work Mark? A 5k radius surely your still out of reach from anywhere...

“So many grey areas, such little time for rules to be written on hundreds if not thousands of possible scenarios for being out and about within 5km too. I think we all just need to be practical and do what we can, where we can, if truly and unselfishly needed for a few more weeks.”

Outer Nillumbik, Yarra Ranges, Mitchell Shire residents I personally know are all seemingly abiding to the best of their distance necessities and unquestioned locally mate!

Surely given allowances for family necessities if not retailing within 5km of home. Yep we're under siege but not fully a nazi state just yet.

Hence why a case by case basis mate!
Rissoles are taking the piss and our Aussie boys in blue are all over it, with the help of Sheriff number plate technology now mobile I believe?

Yep they're mostly doing a good job. Not without some issues though. Shot a 60yo the other night for being off their meds. Goes both ways.

Spending a few days working in the West Macdonnell Ranges in NT made me happy this week.
Getting paid to go 4WDing to scope an upcoming job and enjoying mid to high 20's temp.
Only downside is it is a dry camp.

Tony you are an absolute legend mate. Could only dream of doing what you're doing right now.

Sure you don't need an offsider post Covid? I'm not a bad camp cook if that helps!

Near half way along Old Main Jindi Rd "as now called" (Westerly side). Stopped running around mid 60's(pailings and framing timber runs), steel flat top roof/wooden frame_typ small bush mill setup with many exposed drive belts _Not there now(was a young bloke at school). So much has changed, use to walk thru standing timber/bush all the way to Beattie Rd (near Glen Cromie). Mid 80's was the last time for me around those parts.

This is the kind of territory we have out the mine in NW QLD except half the tree density. Nice area to be moochin' around in for sure.
