Fingers crossed guys, keep an eye on the news in case you need to do something like have a passport to come.

Just a heads up NSW Gov changed the regional travel to 80% vaccinated, they also say this is hoped to be achieved before the end of October 2021.

time will tell . the take up rate is slowing ,while there is little interested in AZ there is a shortage of Pfizer and Moderna.
I have one each way, A shot of AZ and One of Pfizer. so should I would be double half vaccinated.

I would have been more inclined to say "confused".

The Covid rate in Vic is rising and today is more than twice that of NSW.
Vic always wants to be the leader - go for it guys.
In the meantime I'm packing my toggs ready for Port.
Can't wait. I can already feel that sun, the sand, the water, the margaritas, and good company.

Late comers always welcome. 1st big weekend for what seems like an eternity.

Will start planning the weekend in detail soon. Do you think you’ll need something to travel from Sydney?

bfit · « **Reply #13 on:** October 07, 2021, 09:28:08 PM »

A reliable vehicle ,

Thats easy Bfit - either get a good mechanic or buy a Mustang.

I probably should not say that, since with some irony I'll most likely end up coming in the later, even if I have to crawl, I'll be there.

Don't worry Uncle Doug you can park near ME

jagsy · « **Reply #16 on:** October 08, 2021, 08:04:01 PM »

I can send big red as a recovery vehicle if required.

If Ian was to come along, and with others in shopping trollies, this run will look more like a Mustang Club run.

Oh ! BFIT you are coming to this Port (This) weekend - aren't you ?.

I don’t know . Vettech.
A new premier has made the decision or been persuaded to open up NSW. Against the advice that has been quoted by the previous premier and also the prime minister of australia.
The advice has been that we open up when the vaccination of THE ELIGIBLE population gets to 80% , now that is not the case, is it. There are areas of NSW that are at the 40%-50% rate at this stage.
What is the reason to open up when that 80% has not been achieved?
Is this an economic decision, or is the premier putting his faith in an overwhelmed hospital system.

There is ambiguity in the statements put forward by the government the last few days. Hopefully they will clarify things this coming week,

Covid is not predictable! The next four weeks will give a good indication of the veracity of the decision handed down by the NSW government, In open up the state, starting tomorrow.

Yes we as Sydney are open and can travel to Gosford, Shell Harbour, Wollongong and anywhere in Metro Sydney so long as we are double vaccinated. Regional NSW is still closed to us until we hit the 80% NSW Double shot

We still need regional travel permits for work to go beyond that.
