Mornington Peninsula issue...

PASSING THOUGHT: While geographically it seems unfair to include the Mornington Peninsula in Melbourne lockdown, there's more to the story. The MP's an escape, a scenic magnet to exhausted Melburnians. Holiday houses+motels=mere c.1 hr away=temptation+high risk. Keep MP metro...

It's a beautiful, warm sunny day in Melbourne...BUT, bearing out my argument, from my back verandah, I can hear MP traffic whirring on the freeway...Not all can possibly be travelling within the 5km limit...(No, no photo)...Travellers are desperate...So am I...I'm staying home...

a little bit of Australia in Canada...

Amazing where you may find a little bit of Australia...
Brantford in southern Ontario, Canada has a cluster of streets named after Australian cities...
And it took a homesick Australian to publicise his surprise discovery... https://t.co/zm7Nlr1qes pic.twitter.com/A0YdxkdTKO
