Went to bed expecting a draw. Congrats to the Kiwis, awesome to see them get their first ICC win. Hope to see more tests and longer series for them.

Its quite possible they are just waiting for school term to finish so they don't have to worry about school closures/remote learning - and hope they can end lockdown
There would have been a heap of mid year exams and assessments this week that a snap lockdown would have stuffed with
Locking down just workplaces is easier than managing work+schools
Also gives a chance to see if social distancing alone can get on top of things. But seeing as it looks like we've got the more contagious variant around at the moment, I'm guessing we'll lock down at some point

Wouldn't be the worst to be stuck up in the tropics for an extra week or so

Because I generally send one pm a year and instantly forget how they work (and have a tendency to let stuff fall out of my brain) what gives? Is there another step I’m missing?
It sits in your outbox till the other person reads it

NW Jr has a student free day Friday and today was parent teacher interviews. We got an email and messages yesterday saying interviews will be done via phone now and school wasn't compulsory but teachers would be onsite to mind kids.
I have a wedding this weekend and a funeral next week, both outside of Greater Sydney, but the question is will I be able to get out.

My kids were meant to have an end of term disco tomorrow that has been postponed.
Little Miss Cow was looking forward to it, as last year's one got cancelled altogether, so if they don't reschedule she'll have missed out twice
Had school camp last week, so luckily they got that in with no restrictions

Jumping Marlin wrote:FANTASY FANATICS GAME OF SHEEP
Here we have it. Game of Sheep.
HOW TO PLAY
Answer the following 20 questions with the answer you think will be the most common answer from the forum. The idea is to figure out who knows the forum members the most. You don't enter what you think the answer is, but what you think the forum will think the answer is. Using an example:
For example, lets say the question is "What year will Kevin Walters get sacked"
If 20 people answer and 5 say 2021, 15 say 2022.
> The 5 people who answered 2021 will get 5 points.
> The 15 people who answered 2022 will get 15 points
Highest points at end is champ. King or Queen of the Sheep.
So even if you think he'll get sacked in 2021 - the best answer is to say 2021 because that's what most people answered.
HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR ANSWER
Simple - PM me your answers.
It will help if you put your FF name and answers only, one per line and spelt correctly. [Ie no numbers etc]. Eg
Jumping Marlin
Luke Brooks
10250
etc
THE QUESTIONS

4: Which fanatic do you most want to have a beer with?
5: What two teams will get knocked out in the Grand Final qualifiers?
6: Who is the Fantasy Fanatics villain of 2021?
7: Who is your favourite player to watch IRL?
8: Who is the FF quiet achiever - the fanatic who gives advice that you most take notice to. [You cannot answer MS, MTB, Milch].

14: Which player has the biggest gap between their skills at IRL player and their fantasy output? [Looking for name of a gun IRL player that does not translate to fantasy].

16: Which Fanatic would you most likely be OK introducing your mum to?

In other contract news both Dane Gagai and Kurt Capewell are poised to join the club ahead of next season with the former telling Dobbo he’s ‘very confident’ he will end up at Red Hill.
