I’m starting with Tiny Teddy Tassie tonight. Don’t know why I haven’t thought of that name before but it’s exactly what you are. The tiny delicious addition to this country - and although you don’t have a new case - YOU’RE IN LOCKDOWN TOWN - and this is significant.
Sheesh ok- we know the NSW man who escaped HQ in Hobart? Right well:
He spent about 18 hours on a tour de tassie - notched up 39 close contacts and the political people are not taking chances - a three day SNAP lockdown for southern Tassie and Hobart began at 6pm!
Also - one of the close contacts of Hobart Houdini breached quarantine last night and had to be caught - he’s been fined.
Alright. Moving on to everyoneeeee else!

Besties you’re staying in lockdown town for another week. The health people found 34 cases there overnight.
Of today’s cases only 12% were vaccinated.
The breakdown:

OK NSW: Fully vaccinated people from NSW won’t need to do 14 days quarantine when they arrive in Vic from Wednesday. They will be able to stay anywhere in the state but will still have a travel bubble in place around their accomodation.

Sis - you were wild today.
November 1 - 💥 - borders open and we start getting those stranded Aussies home.
And you know the hotel quarantine bin? It’s been put IN THE BIN.
Fully vaccinated Aussies will not have to HQ on arrival.
You haven’t had the jab? Ok well - you’ll still be allowed back but you’ll have to quarantine and there will be a cap of 200 spots per week.

Friday night drinks in the no new cases club. What a time!
More on them ⬇️
QUEENIES
I didn’t know if you should go above or below the club. Two cases but: one was a member of flight crew who tested positive after they left HQ - the other is a truckie picked up at the border.
The health people aren’t fussed about either and say they don’t pose a risk.
You know how everyone was SHOOK by the international border decision made by NSW? Your health people are too. They’re going to recalibrate their noggins on borders - and may come back with changes.
Jane’s weather:
After Melbourne’s steady rain overnight it’s lots of 🌬 🌦 on Saturday,16- all easing late arvo.
Hobart 15 & Canberra 16 have lots of🌦,easing later.
Spencer Cottee, a dairy farmer from Lismore NSW, developed Passiona cordial which, when carbonated, became the foundation product of the Cottee’s range. Passiona was first manufactured in 1924 and was originally a way to avoid wasting passionfruit grown on his farm.
I left SA out of the no new cases club - my mistake. You’re absolutely in the club!!
