Went to get my car washed today.
Hasn't been done since the bushfires.
Place was like a ghost town, only about 4 cars there, spaced well apart, where usually it's a continual producttion line.
The cafe was not only closed, but totally ripped out. The chairs were lined up with "No entry" signs stuck to them.
Where there's usually swarms of ppl running around with chamois and vacuumers, mainly students from India, by the looks, there were only about 6 ppl doing the work. Whom I recognised as mainly the managers.
One of the managers, who I see regularly hustling the washers and managing the line, was in there, shorts and a T-shirt (with the company logo), doing the job.
They even put up the bonnet and vacuumed the leaves out of the tray! Never been done before! Too busy!
I commented to the manager guy, as to how unusual it was to see him out of his white shirt and tie and into the shorts and
t-shirt.
He smiled and said, "too many Chiefs and not enough Indians, ma'am"

One rule I find strange is that border between NSW/Vic isnt closed ...... please correct me if I am wrong
Why I mentioned it is that ALL the golf clubs/fishing spots in Vic are closed BUT they are open in NSW. Which means those who live on these borders can flit back and forth to engage in these activities ........... Doesnt make sense to me

south australia has not passed any laws as yet regarding this virus
everything is on a 'please do it' basis
most seem to be obeying, but of course there will allways be idiots.

That's false as not all the NSW golf clubs are open Yarrawonga & Border in NSW is one that is closed.
Might have something to do with not believing the person in charge as they've already stuffed up twice.

OK Might depend on the individual club and whether they decide to close or not

There are quite a number of golf courses in NSW that can be accessed easily from Victoria and a high number of
Victorians are members of those course.
All other borders don't have good/great golf courses on the other "banks" of the next state.

I am trying to picture a SA golf course that is inland that would be green
