Lads did I miss the memo where restrictions have been lifted? Cos it seems quite a few people in Ballina got one ...heaps of traffic, plenty of pedestrians and an alarming lack of social distancing (and lest it need to be clarified, I was out delivering dinners)

We& #39;ve done really well so far, can we not just stick with it for one more week and see where we are then? Less of the "it& #39;ll be grand" and more of the "just in case" ... please?

Also: Quit whinging to Simon Harris about being bored and demanding to know next steps. For now, if we want to save lives, we just do the one simple thing we& #39;ve been asked. Stay. Home. It& #39;s absolutely not fun, it& #39;s hard economically too, but the alternative is dead relatives.

And FINALLY, cos this has been bugging me all day, if you& #39;re downing tools cos the govt got some things wrong, or if Mary next door has abandoned social distancing and is having a great time for herself and you& #39;re not, and you& #39;re thinking, & #39;f**k it& #39;, stop and look at yourself. >

YOU are still an adult with a civic responsibility, not a child hankering over what others have & you don& #39;t, or complaining about what& #39;s "fair".Ferries, fruitpickers or Mary up the road partying does not absolve YOU of YOUR moral obligation, nor your capacity for decision-making.

Glad to get today& #39;s rant off my chest

Rate of traffic increase however strongly suggests not all.
