Im gonna say 1st July. Start of the new financial year.
I tend to agree with the way the AFL are talking they want to start again early July you would think if that happens we can going fishing as well.

Looking at the graphs and the modelling it might be as early as June.

Also just had a meeting with my (former) employer. The gov is desperate to get schools operating again, but expecting to be out for the entire of term 2. Term 3 would be a soft reset for everyone and is probably our best bet. If they send everyone back to school they'll have to lift some of the other things as well.

Anyone expecting before then is probably wishful thinking.

Got back a couple of weeks ago when the gov advice was to come home. Will write an end of season report eventually. People still posting either made up numbers or racist garbage but i'ts no worse than any other platform. Wishful thinking longing for a world less hateful.

I took the boat to a glasser for a quote on some works today. Took the tank out prior so if I did get pulled up I could claim I wasn’t going fishing lol. Was half expecting to get reported.

Probably. Just add it to the withdraw pile they've already got to review. Which is slowly getting bigger and bigger
