MLA (Meat & Livestock Australia) have decided to move away from a targeted "Australia Day" campaign and make it a summer wide campaign. Apparently there will be a new add out in a day or two, but it will be a broader message? Sounds like PC BS to me ?

It's fair to say though that supply of lambs to market is a real problem also, they largely either died of starvation in the paddocks or got burnt in the fires  :'( I know a sheep farmer in NSW who's flock of 4000 is now down to around 900, and most of his ewe's walked off and left their lambs cause they simply couldn't feed them.

I won’t sugar coat it as speaking from experience, it’s gonna be tough BUT things will get better. There’ll be shock, sadness and anger BUT it will get better. While it’ll be tough to do at times and depending on circumstance, try to keep things as civil as possible as it will make things easier. As mentioned and without a doubt, the biggest thing that will get you through as painless as possible..... stay chatty. To friends, to family, to random strangers, just do it!

Hi,
    Get as much help as you can. Stay social, don't hibernate and stew on it.
Sift through the wreckage and rescue what you can; together if at all possible. Yes, the team is broken now, but it worked for years, and some were fun. You are not enemies, you shared a lot. Some of that will still be there, see if you can find it, even as you go your separate ways.
Cheers

Shit mate, couldn't image what's going through your head atm.
I hope you've got a mate that is within ear shot, or reach out to one of the mant groups that help us guys when Shit hits the fan.
Also some good advice from the guys above.
Take care of yourself and I hope it is not too long a road for you.

A "summer wide campaign" starting at the beginning of February ???

Ummm, didn't summer officially start back on 1/12 ???

I'd agree that it's been PC-canned & they're trying to come up with a replacement of some sort :'(

Been there, got the T shirt. It can be sh!t for the first couple of years but it does get better. In fact I didn't realise it at first but it has been a good release for me, I didn't realise how much a narcissist she was. So not all bad news for me. She didn't like camping and my new partner does so win win.
Talk to your mates if you need to. Or talk to us here. Myswag was one of the things that got me through it all.

Is this coronavirus that bad or is it just another weird arse scheme to drive people into panic buying? Look at the stats and way, way, way more people die of the common flu virus each year. In the tens of thousands around the world. Like the flu, it appears it's mainly the old and weak that are dying.

Yep. I agree. But I suppose it's all relative. $200k to some might be like $200 to others. And like you said, most of it was probably supplied by his sponsors.

FFS, what purpose do mosquitoes serve in Nature? Other than to pi55 me off.
Really, walk outside, the _____ers are on to ya.
Open the criuser door, a dozen slip inside, the whole trip there is mozzies buzzing around.
Yesterday, I needed to change a pulley on the Zero turn, 3 bloody pedestal fan flats out, not to keep my cool, even tho it was warm, no just to keep the mozzies away.
Everyone it saying what A PITA they are.

Ahhh, except yesterday at Toommy's Rock Lookout, scorched country after the fires that ripped through the Clarence valley.
Not even a bird to be heard.
