Do you have to set that up (completely clueless here). For those who haven't heard, the Services Vic app is being updated with the ability to look up your previous QR history. NSW has had it for a while, I believe. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH I can't remember if I purposely set it up, it's just been on for years. I assume it is automatic if you have location turned on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LemonMyrtle Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Took the kids for maccas drive through and a park visit. There are 4 mums and their kids here, having a nice chat, no masks. And they didn’t meet by chance cause they were all talking loudly about what a good idea it was to meet at the park idiots. At least their white runners were ruined by the mud. Amateurs, I wore my gumboots. 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was worried I wouldn't remember everywhere I had been if I ever needed to check and this is helpful.

Kiwi Bicycle Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I still have my trusty diary going as well as QR codes and Google map history. You know if you have it turned on if you get an email monthly of your " travel" highlights telling you places you have been, how much walking, cycling or vechicle distance you have travelled. Normally associated with a Gmail account. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sange Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I didn't realise that Google Maps tracks me even if I am not using it specifically. I was not at Coles on Friday - phew. But it is now in our community, first time that I know of for any outbreak. We are a usually careful community in Diamond Creek, and it has been rather quiet since lockdown - I hope that it will be enough. I know how to check my QR code history, but I do sometimes forget to check in as I am a bit scatty at times. I do mean to be conscientious about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their managing association should be emailing out guidelines and phoning managers to check they understand. Thank goodness it seems we avoided an issue here. Well done Police for making them get tested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indi Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Word going around is the removalists are also carrying/collecting other "goods". They're being stood over by certain elements in SW Sydney. 1 2 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Twit Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 We have been going ok with remote learning/WFH this time but I feel like we have hit the wall a bit today. Yesterday was tough when the extention was announced even though we were expecting it. DS is pretty accepting of it all, but his birthday is on Tuesday so that upset him knowing he will have a second birthday in lockdown. DD tells me she is not coping and I am just running around like a cheerleader/juggler trying to keep everyone's spirits off. OK rant over. Fingers crossed we are out of this next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kshy Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 We are not coping with remote learning either - DS14 went to school today, yesterday was not good all round - thankfully school was amazing and organised onsite learning. I’m hoping he did ok so he’ll go back for the rest. This time round I’ve really struggled with the work/family/remote learning juggle and just don’t have the energy for the full on warfare that remote learning brings for DS (severe ADHD and learning difficulties) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsLaurie Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 We’ve had troubles with remote learning today too. I made the fools error of letting miss6 watch tv with miss2 after her morning meeting and basically nothing has been managed since. I’m meant to be doing interviews for HOURS tomorrow and Friday, our most stable wifi is in the main room, Miss2 has a cough and snotty nose so has been off for test eleventy-hundredth and almost certainly won’t be right for daycare… no idea how I’m getting through the next two days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cstar Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I'm struggling with the boredom this time around. There is so much I could do at home (cleaning wise) but I have ZERO motivation to do it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
