Day four Saturday

Our traditional trip to Rusty's Market was as expected with about half the stalls shut and only a few shoppers about. I now know where all the face masks have gone. Every Asian shopkeeper had one on. There’s none to be had for love nor money anywhere in town. Just saying.

I used Franksy’s recipe today and made focaccia to have with ham and Camembert. I did not have a wine with it. I could have, as Saturday and Sunday do not follow the strict no alcohol before 5.00 pm rule.

I got this from a mate in Mission Beach – Greta Thunberg invited the Chinese to give up using chopsticks to save trees! The Chinese have called on her and her friends to go back to school, where they will learn that chopsticks are made from bamboo, Bamboo is grass!
The Chinese invited Greta and her friends not to wipe their butt with toilet paper, because it's made from trees! She wouldn't get it.

Just back from a bike ride into town. I am taking my reconnaissance duties very seriously and I have to tell you that I saw young people playing basketball and tennis, Islander families having picnics and some international backpackers tongue kissing on the grass. So all social distancing ticketyboo here in Cairns. Very quiet on the roads though and all the hotels eerily quiet and dark. 

Right, gin and tonic served.
