Anyhow whatever it is heres wishing all those in the Northern Arctic Regions like the UK that they wake up to a bright sunny day on the right side of the bed and make the most of their longest day, and start making preparations for their short coldest one. Cheers JS

Re: Covid Vacs
WE have had four plus the Flu shot, got an arm like a dart board now.
But the way things are it is better to be safe than sorry.
If the figures are true, and one must allow for journalistic license then almost one third of the population here in Oz have had the Virus.
Figures of some 7.500 cases out of a population of some 26.6 million, give or take a few illegals along the way.
Most regulations have now been lifted but masks must still be worn in doctors surgery, hospitals, public transport including taxi, nursing homes and a few other minor places.
We continue to wear them in big shopping centers, have no wish to get sick

Re: Covid Vacs
They have been availble her in Vic for over two months now.
All you need to do is contact the local pharmacy four months after the third.
We had ours as we will be going overseas today.

Re: Covid Vacs
Theres a case of Champagne waiting for you at the first port of call , you will find it in the nearest first bar closest to the gangway. Believe most bars accept credit cards so dont forget yours. Bon Voyage JS
