You certainly can. As can the carloads of people, who obviously are intimately acquainted (or soon will be), in the house down the road.

As an older Australian, I find the thought of dobbing odious. In my opinion I think the police should be hunting these suggestion breakers out by themselves. They seem to have enough time to flout the restrictions themselves, so they obviously need the work.

You can't get a shot at your local chemist in Perth unless you're over 65 yrs of age, so my mother reckoned

I just struck me that this is the perfect time for WA to secede. No whinging from buyers that their items take a week to get from the East if they were a foreign country. Our balance of trade would go positive because they only grow iron ore, plus the saving to the federal budget not having to give them more GST than they deserve because of their profligacy with mining royalties.

i'm not normally a 'dobber' either, but in this instance you cant expect a small town police force to be everywhere

i'm just amazed they havent made going on holiday a definate nono

maybe the other restrictions will cover my holiday makers, the no more than 10 gathering?
