Me mates lived there for 30 odd years, never seen it like it.
Fair piont about those that work in Brisbane and live on the Gody, but isn't all part of Brisvagas ;)

Your mate obviously doesn’t usually travel on Friday afternoons then.
I say he is dreaming if he thinks that today’s traffic is the worst in 30 years.

Cool, you just saved me some money.  I have failed in my bid to not weaken and have cracked the top. If you like Port, this is very smooth and I think about $25 a bottle but I buy it by the half or full dozen.

Well that's a bugger.   

My old man, 90 yrs old, who lives within the Great Brisbane area, therefore in lockdown, took a bit of a tumble and hurt his back.   Ambos are taking him to Hospital for x-rays, hopefully just a broken rib and nothing else too serious.   But as Ambo was checking him over hesoemthing like, "if you don't get that Cellulitis under control you will be in trouble."   Cellulitis is a common and sometimes painful bacterial skin infection which if left untreated could become life threatening.   

With me being in NSW and him in Lockdown, there is sweet FA I can do to be with him.   At least going to Hospital they should do something for his Cellulitis.   

Cheers

Good news, no fracture.  Soft tissue damage.   Still has to chase up his Dr about the cellulitis.   Now he just has to make his way back home.   Stubborn old bastard that he is, he can make things difficult for anyone trying to help.

Good that he's been cleared of any break/fracture but you will need to be very pro active getting on top that other thing.

Just seen some report that gorillas in some zoo have tested positive to the corona virus. Has it jumped from human to apes now? What will happen if it jumps from apes to humans?

Whackjobs inhabit the full spectrum of the socio political spectrum. Unfortunately they seem to be the ones that get the most exposure.

I was wondering if the symptoms could include searching through my dogs fur looking for fleas or ticks and eating them or a sudden craving to eat bananas.
