Little Joys of Lockdown
The whole world knows by now that Melbourne has experienced one of the strictest lockdowns in the world. Having gone through the first lockdown in February-March and then getting some reprieve afterwards, numbers escalated quite quickly and our premier decided to go to Stage 4 lockdown.
