I heard they were closing the Cape, with police on the highway. Does that mean Cooktown is closed now too Bunyip?

Went to Office Works & Kmart after I got the hire car this morning. People mostly social distancing. Snoogies in the Main Street Arcade was open for takeaway, and probably will be tomorrow. (Good healthy food.) Noticed people at tables on the footpath in Grafton Street.

IGA at Manoora had signs saying prices had gone up on fresh produce, due to difficulties getting it,that farmers can't keep up.

The chemist next door has made their own hand sanitiser, just waiting on bottles. Ready tomorrow 25th.

Interesting to be out and about. Very quiet. Easy parking. A long queue at Centrelink, up to Grafton, and halfway to Shields. And it was raining.

So hard to believe this terrible thing is happening. And this weird weather makes everything feel stranger. Kind of spooky monsoonal blustery winds, but dry.

... Oops, started this this morning. It rained on & off this morning. And a couple showers this afternoon.

Ambient, reckon that's distant enough. Please keep posting here. 😊
