Honestly even though pay is good for working in the mines, I wouldn't do it for that reason, I couldn't handle the hours well.
But what I would want to do though when I get a bit more money, is get a gold detector and take up gold prospecting.

A few weeks ago probably, or maybe I was telling someone else, but 14 day isolation is still a requirement.

I think a metal detector is all you need mate but speaking of prospects... Do u have any female prospects?
It is probably harder to find a decent woman these days than finding gold... LoL
That is true, and maybe I should start of with a metal detector and they are cheaper, but they will just about pick up any metal.
I wouldn't know, I am yet to find the right woman and am yet to find gold. Lolz
Thanks for posting those. I found them intriguing. It looks like good news (for a change) to me.
As the numbers of new cases come down, contact tracing become easier. Faster results for tests is also important since you can find out who has it sooner and take precautions with only the people they've been around. Faster and more accurate tests could also mean restrictions on allowing people into the country might ease up soon.
What is a concern though is the anti lockdown protests, and they are planning a big one in Melbourne CBD, if outbreaks happen from this, it could undo a lot of the good work and extend current restrictions longer.

Best place to go prospecting is church...
Find a gal who hasn't slept with too many guys cos the more people someone has slept with the harder it is for them to pair bond...
Out in the country there i would imagine fewer women but more conservative nice ones...
I wonder if the organizer charged with incitement was released on bail or kept in prison? I'd keep him in prison. Lots of times, protests dwindle away when people get bored without the agitators egging them on. And if a few protesters get Covid, that should discourage more protests.
I'm guessing too that someone is using social media to spread rumors (like Covid isn't even real) and to get people overexcited -- the government may be able to find those sites and get them closed. If I wanted to create my own conspiracy theory, I might think China was behind some of the misinformation and incitement to unrest. I'm not saying China is behind it, but it wouldn't surprise me if they did something like that.

How have u been? Nice bird. There are a few bird lovers on here and why not, there amazing creatures...
There is just so much politics and stuff happening down here it would be too much for you to tune into and not worth it...
The major issue in the state of Victoria is this unique political situation. The state leader has all the powers to pass bills unchecked.
Parliament has been closed for the last 6 months and he wants to extend his dictatorial powers for another 12 months.
Only here in Victoria

I've been fine. Sounds like you are in the thick of it! I believe that it's important to stand up for freedom. At least, that's how I was raised.
My new avatar is a drawing of my parakeet. I have an artist in my family! I love birds! They truly are an amazing part of God's creation. I think He outdid Himself when He created birds in all their splendor.
Looks like you have a dictator at the helm. Why does Parliament need to be suspended?? They can have virtual meetings. I mean, this is the age of technology. Someone should tell them about Zoom!

Ahh u have a pet budgie. Me too... The smallest parrots and probably the most popular species for a pet...
They all have different characters as well. Go on youtube and you will find budgies doing anything and everything
Is yours tame? Cos they love humans once they get over the initial skepticism I prefer to give it time out of the cage as well. Fly little bird fly... Its cruel not to let a bird fly. I had a cockatiel exactly like the one in my avatar... She was so smart i potty trained her... Hehehe
Their both Aussie birds but reside around the desert, not where i live. But we have so many beautiful birds down here that i plan to take up bird watching one day. As im getting older now, u know. Less snowboarding and more relaxing hobbies... LoL...
How about we both take a picture of our budgies and put up in our avatar??? Deal???

My budgie is not tame. She showed up on my porch 2 years ago around my birthday, so I consider her a birthday present from God.
We have no idea where she came from and tried to find her owner, but no one claimed her, so we kept her. I'm SO glad we did! She is such a joy to listen to. When I talk to her, she cocks her little head as if she listening intently, lol.
Her name is Birdie, and she will peck your hand off if you try to pick her up. My daughter has to wear a leather glove when she reaches into the cage. I wonder if someone let her go out in the wild because of this.
My avatar is a drawing that my daughter made of Birdie. It looks just like her. I would love to see a pic of your dear budgie!

This forum allows us to talk about this...
Fake news
Fake news
But for me, you are the one who is pushing fake news on this forum much like a bully does when they want to control the narrative.
This has, IMHO, forced mental health issues off of the forum as a secondary, unimportant issue, that should not be discussed because you seem to only what to discuss the fake news that you publish on this forum and bash as often as possible the premier of your state.
If you want to have mental health issues in Australia discussed on this forum then start a focused thread on that topic without the BS you disk out and perhaps other Aussies will join in and discus this with you. We all are impacted by mental health, either personally, or through the impact of mental health with other people either close of distant from us.
I see you are the one that is insecure and in fear and have slammed another fellow Christian. Why don't you apologize to @Cristo Rei and set things right? He is a sincere person. Please stop bashing folks that present topics YOU do not like......it is a Christian gesture to heal and move on you know..try it you may feel much better...
Blessings,
APAK
You may be right there APAK, that I have called out a fake news person whose agenda has been to encourage people to not follow sound advice, who has sheeted the blame for the second wave of the virus directly at the premier of Victoria without accepting responsibility for his part in encouraging people to revolt against the leadership of the state, which was elected democratically by the people of the state. I do live in the state of Queensland and we have similar leadership problems where the premier of our state is doing everything in her power to be re-elected in a few months time.
Now your data suggests that you are a citizen of the US and you dare to offer input into a country you know very little about except the sensationalised news that has not made it to the rejected news on the floor during the editing process as to what is news and what is not news in the editor's suite.
Now I know that what I read and hear and see about what is happening in the US is but a thumbnail picture of the reality of the situation, but I refrain from commenting or offering suggestions as to how your situation can be improved in the US. I find it disgusting that people can take pot shots at other nations without knowing all of the facts. You are one of those people who like to speak into situation in other nations and your own nation from the wealth of your ignorance that you hold concerning what is actually happening.
Your quoted post above is nothing more than "fake news" concerning me and how insecure I am and how I am in fear of my situation.
I retired 21 years ago and I was able to do so with the knowledge that I would be okay and be able to support myself in everything that I chose to do during my "retirement." As to Cristo's relationship with the Lord is concerned, all that I have to go on is primarily what he filled in on his application to become a member of this forum. I agree that some of his early posts may suggest his Christian understanding, but the majority of his posts IMHO do not support his application claim of being a Christian. They were contrary to God's instruction to live peacefully within the nations and to pray for the welfare of that particular nation/state.
If you want to have a conversation with me, then please present rational facts on and concerning the topic in question.
Until then Goodbye
@Jay Ross..another short sighted and pompous, thinks he knows it all....I bet I'm right...prove I'm wrong if you can...I welcome your feedback
First, if you had to gamble on what is my nationality you would be clearly wrong. I may have a single, double or even triple nationality.
Second, I may know Kiwi and OZ politics at least as much as you do.
Third, you seem to believe what your government and bureaucrats tell you without question...I could be wrong..You would most probably be a CNN media viewer over here...a liberal and possibly a left leaning globalist - those that I loathe with a passion.
What you think is sound advice to you may well be very unsafe and very politically-motivated..if true, folks as you drag others down towards socialism.
@Cristo Rei is head and shoulders above you in many respects and the news he presents is worthy to discuss....I would listen to him before a fake news parrot as yourself, any day.....care to prove me wrong?
And please don't you dare tell me what I know and do not know. You may be very surprised what I know. As for your beliefs in the Lord I cannot judge and neither can you dare judge @Cristo Rei, So again I call you pompous and very-shorted sighted..prove me wrong else that is the view I shall maintain of you.
