So, on Saturday, there was an unmasked protest in Sydney and Melbourne (and one in Brisbane, but the virus isn't quite as loose out there as it is in Sydney).
Let's just say that the odds of 0 in (reportedly) 7000 people not having COVID are infinitismally small.
( the COVID situation in Sydney )
And we've just received the word that tomorrow another 4 weeks of lockdown will be announced.
Frankly, I still think that one week of hard lockdown at the start would have saved us all this piffle-paffle now. Also, without an economic plan, the disaffected and desperate are going to continue their protests on lockdown, thereby further locking us down (at least until they all get sick and are hospitalised).
We're gonna be here a while.

Work has been utter shite. I'm not getting anything done, I should just take a week off or something. I can't concentrate, I can't think. It's not anything particular, I'm just struggling.
--
Writing has been similarly shite, although at least today I worked out the next scene for this thing. It's all piecemeal, though, and I have a thousand questions.

Otherwise, I've been watching a lot of Olympics. Hockey, mostly, via the free streaming services provided by one of our broadcast channels. All the AUS games, and here and there other ones.
I haven't really watched the swimming finals - I always miss them, exciting as they tend to be. Although I did just watch an Australian tie in his heat after trailing for most of it. That was freaking impressive.
