Be Yourself. Be Happy.

Of the grand order of folio leviathans, the Sperm Whale and the Right Whale are by far the most noteworthy. They are the only whales regularly hunted by man. To the Nantucketer, they present the two extremes of all the known varieties of the whale. As the external difference between them is mainly observable in their heads; and as a head of each is this moment hanging from the Pequod's side.

Stay Positive. Always.

September 27, 2021

Posted by Trevor Connell

Providing the public health risk of Covid-19 remains relatively stable over the next two weeks, ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr said lockdown would end as planned on October 15th with the jurisdiction then transitioning to medium-level public health restrictions.

From 15th October

The first stage sees venues able to reopen with max guests limited to 25 pax indoors or 50 pax outdoors

The following activities can operate with capacity of 25 people or density of 1 per 4 sqm, whichever is less for: • Weddings • Places of worship • To broadcast a performance

Licensed venues, cafes and restaurants for seated service. Max 25 people across venue or 1 per 4 sqm indoors. Businesses can have max 50 people or 1 per 4 sqm if outdoors only. Not both.

• Funerals increased to 50 attendees

From 29th October

The second stage sees indoor limits raised to 100 pax and outdoor to 150 pax while ticketed and seated events are now allowed with up to 500 pax

The following activities can operate with max 25 people across the venue before density limits apply. Over 25 people: indoor 1 per 4 sqm or max 100; outdoor 1 per 2 sqm or max 150: • Licensed venues, cafes and restaurants • Places of worship • Outdoor attractions • Weddings • Funerals

Ticketed and seated events: • Outdoor can have up to 500 people • Indoor with fixed seating 75% capacity up to 500 • Indoor with unfixed seating 1 per 4 sqm, capacity up to 150

Open with restrictions – cinemas, galleries, museums, cultural institutions ,historic sites and outdoor attractions • Dance classes, choirs and bands commence – max 20 people or 1 per 4 sqm

Less restrictive travel in our region

November – December

It will be late November / early December before events return properly

Consideration will be given to: • Larger events and gatherings with some limits. Exemptions may still be required. • Reduced density requirements eg: 1 person per 2 sqm • Reopening of nightclubs

Further easing of travel restrictions – any interstate or overseas travel will be subject to the decisions of the Commonwealth and other State and Territory Governments
