35559 Thanks everyone! I've popped the books in up to here.



We have 6 books left for tasks and 1 book for Bingo. They've all been claimed which is nice (:

I'm still adding books into Jackonary but it takes me longer to add books there than the other tasks. There's 26 books left for Jackonary and about 26 books that we have read that I haven't popped in yet.

We have about 6 days left of Tower Teams left before we're done! So finish up what you can and make sure all your books are in the spreadsheet! :)

Finished. BOM and probably for Jackonary. Lots of great characters and topics here. I'll look later to see if I can come up with better."

Amazing! Great job you two! I was hoping I’d be able to read it but it seems like I won’t be able to unfortunately

Yes, I do agree. It's just so hard to judge. Yes, I think if you are a politician or a health officer at the moment, you will be analysed and critised for years to come.
I feel like at the moment the VIC and NSW lockdowns are in competition with each other. One saying that we don't need to lockdown to defeat the cases (but they did), and the other saying that lockdown is needed to stop the spread of cases (hence lockdown 5.0). Gah. It will be interesting to see how they continue to roll-out the vaccines. Especially if each state does is differently

Yeah the Delta variant is definitely concerning. It doesn't seem as though it's getting that much better in NSW :(

I definitely am over the lockdowns. I am enjoying the working from home though. I hope that after COVID eases, it will still be an option for us if needed. Hopefully business will be open to us working from home part of the week

I don't see an issue Sally. Not sure what's going on

35559 Ahh well Victoria has entered lockdown 5.0. Brace yourself Paulette

How's NSW and QLD handling their lockdowns and COVID shenanigans?

haha Stacey. Oh no.

Being mated technically is the same as being married but there's no lawyers or minister involved. It's also more final than marriage where we can divorce anyone.

I kind of like one of the men being pregnant. I am thinking to have the pregnant with her person's baby. Then her transferring the pregnancy to him because he has been a jerk to her. Then him having a redemption ark and starts respecting his lady more.

Lol! The books we read in the backroom! I agree Lisa, anything for points haha
I'm tempted to use the Omega plot line for chaos in the Jackonary. Wondering which male antagonist/protagnist I should bless them with. Or should we do it for Death? hmm *strokes beard*
