      agreed, stupid classification of UAE.

      The second graph was clearly drawn by an Israeli. They aren't usually too fond of the UAE.

      Didn't they sign a treaty recently? I remember Trump being there

      Yes. They agreed to talk to each other.

      I suspect that when they "talk" we will end up where we were.

      Anyway in positive news, kids back to school today, numbers the lowest the have been since September & vaccine roll out continues ...

      Tough old slog in the UK continues, on what should have been a landmark day for the country, all everybody is talking about is those two now in California.

      @Hooroo thought I remembered you mentioning on here you mentioned something to your bro in front of her that upset her! Prolly making it up.

      Maybe when I was over there visiting last year. It's very likely 🙂

      Barely though. I haven't ordered anything online from a butcher because the choices are so limited under current conditions. Every cafe and restaurant here is closed. I'm fucking gagging for a takeaway coffee and a vindaloo. You don't think 4 days of business will be important to them?

      We got our usual meat order last week, free delivery too, which was great given Dominoes dont even deliver out as far as we are, the booze shop wont either.

      I am sure it will be, but I just think this wil be thier (the Govt) 'happy medium'

      Embarassingly comprehensive rebuttal. Journalist and editor should resign.

      Has anyone been using Syncplay or similar apps to watch movies or listen to music with friends?

      I've been using https://www.airtime.pro/ to stream music to friends.

      Any app or service suggestions? Would love to be able to stream music to friends easily from my desktop.

      Do you peasants drive yourself or something?

      Funnily enough, we haven't been for the first 2 months of 2020 - and have hated it! Bali roads, licenses, insurance etc, all leads to expats renting a car + driver. And it's kinda fun for a week, and kinda crap after that!

      Can't put a price on independence.

      @Baron-Silas-Greenback I think that's the point.

      The China numbers are totally fucked but hardly anyone's can be trusted. Everyone has different testing regimes, the US had hardly done any testing (proportionately) before they had community transmission - some cases are still only testing hospitalised patients.

      That's what Bloomfield said today - the fact the we are now testing much more but the number of cases is stable is good news and suggests that while it is out in the community not to a massive extent.

      @Stargazer said in Public Holidays:

      When I discussed ANZAC Day with a mate of mine (via Skype) a few days ago, his youngest girl heard it and suggested that everyone should put a poppy on the bear they have in front of their window (she still counts them every day on their daily walk around the block). It was very cute to hear an 8-year-old actively think about it, this way.

      that story just broke me.

      Stories of some staff moving to headbands with buttons sewn on, as the over-ear masks are starting to chafe.

      One of the oldies homes here in Sydney is going through 800 sets of PPE a day.
