money and power...

And don't forget that the life of the average politician (I'm not counting a very rare few in that claim e.g. Penny Wong+Dan Andrews) boils down to money and power...

In so many ways, this image suits my mood today...
Perhaps, it has suited my weekend 'dream' for some time now... https://t.co/2lSXI3rkkw

Just 55 cases less than yesterday...A tiny success... 

covid-19 case at my school...

PASSING THOUGHT: Unexpected school email. Covid case 10+11th October at school. I don't return till 26th. Shaping a crazy idea. On return, I get my 27 students to sit on the opposite side of their desks to face the open doorway. I teach from the doorway. Silly idea sounds safe?? pic.twitter.com/Um2846MrWv

Vic cases in today's reports are down 186 on yesterday...

Here's hoping that signifies we have reached the peak and it's all downhill now.. 

From the LGA page linked below, 

it is clear that cases on the Mornington Peninsula are rising 

+ Casey LGA is still high...

Wow guys...Your attention to data detail from every possible perspective is simply incredible. Wonderful to see the individual LGA pages...Much easier to get an impression of our own region compared with the rest of Victoria...Great job!
