1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you about my day yesterday. There

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,719
Speaker 2: are a number of workplaces that are asking people to

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 2: be tested for COVID, and at Channel ten they've asked

5
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 2: the hosts of the living Room to go and be

6
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 2: tested because we're out filming in the community, we're meeting

7
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 2: different people, all of that stuff. So I went along

8
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 2: yesterday to the drive through one at Bondai, Yeah.

9
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: Because we were going to go together because there's one

10
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: here in North Rye.

11
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 2: But you needed a doctor's prescription what's it called referral

12
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 2: and I we're both feeling well, and I said, well,

13
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 2: I'm not going to waste resources and time getting a

14
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 2: referral and going to have the test.

15
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 3: Yeah.

16
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 2: So anyway, I thought i'd go to the Bondai driving

17
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 2: because I've been.

18
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 1: Asked to have this.

19
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: So it's a long long queue that day, yes, And

20
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 2: I got there about probably ten thirty or so, and

21
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 2: I waited for an hour.

22
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: And a half. You rang me at about towards the

23
00:00:58,920 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: end of yeah.

24
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 2: Saying I was just feeling in some time in my car.

25
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 2: I phoned everyone that I've ever met.

26
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: I told you the right at the end.

27
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 2: You got me at the end when I thought, if

28
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 2: I don't go to the toilet soon, what's going to happen?

29
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: I got the toilet chat. You know what. I how

30
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: long is this going to be? I need to wei.

31
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 1: I'm going to wei in my car.

32
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 2: Well, you know what. Then I went home and said

33
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 2: that same story, and Lim said to me, how many

34
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 2: of your stories end with I almost wet myself? Almost

35
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 2: every story I ever tell ends with I almost wet myself.

36
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 2: I'm of a certain age where it happens.

37
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I think you've been always like that, and

38
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 4: for as long as I've known you in your thirties,

39
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 4: you're always almost going to wet yourself.

40
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 2: No, that's not true.

41
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: It's true.

42
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 2: It's the post baby.

43
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: This is even before you had baby.

44
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 2: So anyway, you can't get it. Even though there was

45
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 2: a public toilet, not far. I can't get out of

46
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 2: the car because we're all inching further forward. So finally,

47
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 2: after an hour and a half, a very nice woman

48
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: called Millie came up and said, here's what's going to happen.

49
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 2: And I gave them my details and she said, now

50
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 2: once I've done the swab, you have to isolate until

51
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,919
Speaker 2: the results come back. It could be up to seventy

52
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 2: two hours. And even my mats knows it. That's three days.

53
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: And I've got filming commitments and I've got probably I

54
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 2: could have arranged to the radio from home, but I

55
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 2: need to get the equipment set up. I said, well,

56
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 2: I have no symptoms. I wasn't aware i'd have to isolate.

57
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 2: I can see why if you have symptoms, you would sure,

58
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 2: And she said no, everyone that has the test has

59
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: to isolate until the results come back.

60
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: Sos a little crazy.

61
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know what, And I bet a lot

62
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 2: of people to do the test. Well, I bet a

63
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: lot of people would go, you know what, I'm not

64
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 2: going to but I kind of thought, no, I can't.

65
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 2: I better go and check this out. So after all that,

66
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: I didn't do the test an hour and a half,

67
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: almost ruining my car seats again. Again, I didn't do

68
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 2: the test. But what's interesting and until I've got more

69
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 2: time and I can, you know, isolate and all of that.

70
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: But we are. I could see why that Q was

71
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 2: so long. I could see and apparently that wasn't as

72
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: the longest It's been long. People have waited a lot

73
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: longer than that. But we are at that critical stage.

74
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 2: We had the premiere on yesterday and she said in

75
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 2: Victoria they've had to have a lockdown because it got

76
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 2: away from them. That was the phrase she used. In

77
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 2: New South Wales, it hasn't got away from us yet.

78
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 2: It's like we're putting out the spot fires. But she

79
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 2: said she was particularly worried about this weekend. Here's what

80
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: she said yesterday.

81
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 3: There's eight million of usach of us has the power

82
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 3: to do the right thing, and I'll worry again about

83
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 3: what people might do on Thursday or Friday, Saturday night

84
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 3: this weekend. I'm just saying, be extra careful. We know

85
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 3: at this critical point. Please, if you can have a

86
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 3: quiet weekend, that would be absolutely our preference. Have a

87
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 3: quiet weekend, do things around your home or around your

88
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 3: direct family or direct contact, and try not to do

89
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 3: anything out of you know, which might be regarded as

90
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 3: risky Behavie.

91
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: Interesting is I've already changed plans for the weekend, but

92
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: we're going to go to a restaurant on Friday. I said, look, no,

93
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: I don't think we should.

94
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 4: We're supposed to be going up to tweed Heads for

95
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 4: my father in law's eighty fifth birthday. It's been planned

96
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 4: for some time and we always knew it was going

97
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 4: to be tough at best because they're right on tweet heads.

98
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 4: To fly into the Gold Coast, that's easy beginning from

99
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 4: the Gold Coast to their house, which.

100
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: Is four minutes from the air, but the border is open. Yeah,

101
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: I know, but it's a nightmare.

102
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 4: So then we're discussing flying to Ballina, then driving eighty

103
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 4: five k's to run in maze.

104
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: And then I said to tell them, you know, look

105
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: at this.

106
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 4: We've got an eighty five year old guy, it's having

107
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 4: a birthday, We've got a your niece has just had

108
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 4: a baby. Why are we bringing a whole clan of

109
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 4: people up? And then this is where you've got to

110
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 4: just you know, it's it's better to not see them

111
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 4: than see them, if you know what I mean.

112
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: Well, it's funny, isn't it, because this is how we

113
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 2: used to be. Then we thought that we were back

114
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 2: to almost normal, But as the Premier has said, these

115
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 2: little spotfires, if we do the right thing now will

116
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 2: be okay.

117
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 1: Just hang at home, make some curriage sausages. Everyone loves those.

118
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: I just don't have people around.

119
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: Well, why would you I'm not going to your house

120
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 2: if you want to make me carried sausages.

121
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 3: Jones, The and Amanda in the morning
