Great news for you guys down under. What did you have to do to break the quarantine. You must have a very big hall to fit 20 players :-). Do players need to wear masks?

Hey Bob.....we have luckily been able to get this thing under control here in Australia - it helps being an island! Yesterday, for instance, in our two biggest states, we only had 3 locally acquired cases out of a population of 14.5 million. There are some restrictions and people are pretty good at hand-sanitising and social distancing but here is New South Wales, things are generally back to normal. No masks required at comps and only 2 square metres per person is required to work out how large the hall has to be..

Good to know some folks have returned to normalcy. Yes, Tony....we are very lucky. Yesterday Australia recorded its first day in almost 5 months without a single case of community transmission.

I think I'm emigrating... P. As long as you keep sending 8 fully painted match pairs of armies back each year we are happy for you.
