i was finally able to get a single can of tomatoes yesterday after four consecutive days of empty shelves. here it's still impossible to buy pasta, rice, TP, or hand sanitiser.
Congratulations on the imminent arrival of your progeny. As my favourite Vulcan used to say ”Live long and prosper.”I’m stuck with normal shopping hours. So far I wouldnt say we have been lucky but we certainly aren’t stuck without anything. We are just living with supplies how we normally would.
About the only thing we have bought extra is baby wipes with an expectant baby next month. That and hand sanitiser are the only products they feel a genuine shortage will occur as the usage of these has increased a great deal. The rest whilst demand and purchasing has increased you physically cant use all that toiler paper (someone did the maths and for what people are buying they need to go for number twos 182 times a day).
On positive news I also got my qantas status extended. I went from platinum one a few years ago, haven’t flown by paying for a while and every year my status has dropped to platinum then last year to gold. I was to drop to silver again but managed to keep gold with no flights in 20 months.
I read where one of the major gin distillers have moved into the production of hand sanitiser. So that should improve supply.

What's the oldest pair of shoes anyone has they still wear?
Mine are Allen Edmonds Strand boots in dark brown. First shoes I purchased after joining StyleForum. Shoe trees + shoe cream + rotation has kept them in good nik for 8 years now.
You best rest, COVID-19 is after you!These are very early Johnston and Murphy spades. Feeling their years now ...maybe late 1930s/early 40s.
You’ll have to put a raiding party together and hit Northside IGA stores which are well stocked. Coles Woolworths not so much. Dog food that’s what I need, but can I find any dog mince? No.south side of canberra. i moved here a few years ago for work.
If people cooperate. In France, the lack of cooperation is leading the government to propose a 6 month jail term for repeat offenders of the confinement order (instead of 135 EUR fines if you don't have your Ausweis)... the whole thing is dredging up some old memories.Essentially, it proposes three options:
- A, which is what Australia is doing now. This involves moderate measures, including people to work from home where possible, engage in social distancing, but keep schools open and not force any shutdowns. It is estimated that this situation will last 12-18 months.
- B, trace and track every single diagnosed infection and make those people self-isolate. Of course, A and B can be undertaken at the same time, if a country or area has the resources. The author considers that most of Australia is now beyond this, as we have too many infections.
- C, shut everything down for a period of time. This is, of course, essentially what China did in Wuhan and what appears to be happening in northern Italy. Shut everything non-essential - businesses, schools, factories and so on - for a period of perhaps 8 weeks. Keep some supermarkets open and, of course, keep hospitals open but, apart from that, shut everything down. This will starve the virus of opportunities to spread and should dramatically lower numbers.
Frankly, I think that C is the best option.
