From the pages of The Guardian today.
"New South Wales police have fined two men for breaching coronavirus restrictions after they were startled by a deer while sunbaking naked on a beach south of Sydney and ran into the bush, becoming lost and needing to be rescued.
Police sent a helicopter to search for the pair, who were fined $1,000 for breaching public health orders amid a coronavirus outbreak that has seen residents in greater Sydney locked down and banned from travelling outside their local area.
It is unclear how the deer startled the men, and what made them dash into the bush to escape it."
What made me laugh is the picture following this article:
I love the Auslan signers. They always brighten my day. They give you something interesting to watch during the pressers each day. (Poor Darwin had to rely on an Auslan translator from the ABC - they don't have a government signer)
But you have to ask:
- Why were they sunbathing nude in the middle of winter?
- Why was there a deer near them?
- If they were naked, how did they raise the alarm?
- Just why would you be doing that in the middle of a pandemic?
Regardless, it makes a change from the normal gloom and doom of the daily news.
