Right, this is almost definitely speaking too soon and has one major slip point I absolutely see coming, but here goes.
As many of you know, I’m in Canberra. Current red zone rules mean I can’t travel to Melbourne.
However, the ACT isn’t locked out of everywhere. As of the time of writing, I can travel to Tasmania, Queensland, the NT and New Zealand.
I’m not missing a potential Dees grand final. Not for a virus.
So, I’m putting it out there.
IF:
1) the ACT is still a red zone as of early September, and;
2) there is a safe landing spot outside of Victoria where I can sit for 2 weeks, and;
3) we win a QUALIFYING final,
I will be travelling to a non-Victorian place from the Thursday of semi final weekend in order to run 2 weeks in a green zone.
But LP, isn’t there a preliminary final in there?
Yep. I don’t have a choice if I’m going to make the grand final. I can’t wait for us to win a prelim. So this could all go very ******* pear shaped.
Aren’t you being ridiculously preemptive?
Probably but I’ll be dammed if I’m missing this. Plus realistically this is right weeks’ time and I can’t guarantee the outbreak will be under control.
What if there’s a COVID outbreak in (insert place here)?
This is the next biggest risk after a prelim loss. My plan is to go as low risk as possible. So in order, that’s Tasmania, then New Zealand.
So let’s see, hey. Hopefully the restrictions lift and this can die a quiet death saving me 2 weeks accomodation, but I am not getting my hopes up.
