April 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic continues, but life goes on for the AthoTurnbulls.

Olivia continues her work at Redcliffe Hospital in the intensive care unit, Nick is pleasantly stuck over the border with Uncle Jon and Bea. James and Keno are stuck working at at home in highly restrictive Oxford, and Paulie and Stephen bounce between their Granny Flat care of Clan Traynor and the St Lucia Atherton's house whilst working for their client a few suburbs away. Australia "flattens the curve" much earlier than France or the UK so life isn't that restrictive (and Paulie and Stephen enjoy the quieter streets anyway).

The pandemic continues but Australia was doing very well care of a fast response	April 2 - Stephen scoping out the future?	A picnic break during exercise when staying at the St Lucia Atherton home.
Then a few days later it's back to Clan Traynor's granny flat at Chapel Hill	Close to Mount Cootha for exercise	and then an afternoon rest. Joined by Lucy Traynor
Off to work	April 10 - back at St Lucia it's time for a Zoom yoga session	Lottie shares some tips on the downward dog move
A mid-week walk around the university and nobody to be seen.	The St Lucia visitor is warmly greeted	April 11 - starting the day heading up Mt Cootha
Ending it (for Olivia) heading back to her Fernberg Road house to picnic with "the Fernburgers"	.	April 16 - the nomads return to St Lucia
And more yoga	Meanwhile Nick enjoys his time at Uncle Jon and Bea's in Whian Whian, northern New South Wales	Where the backyard is the rainforest
.	A rainforest that supplied their lunch one afternoon care of their shrimp trap	Perhaps it is best to be in isolation when experimenting with a new look?
Olivia starts work on a jumper with some knitting tips from mother	That evening the collaboration continues	April 24 - A walk around the university lake
greeted by the some of the few locals on campus	April 24th - Rosie is itching to end isolation it seems	as is Lottie
Although the garden and her walks with the guys might do	April 25 at Jan & Jim Dunlop's at their Noosa hinterland home	Dawn breaks on ANZAC Day. No parades or gatherings this year
Instead, like Toni and Ella Bella Dunlop, respect is given outside their homes	In time to hear the last post played by numerous household musicians for a minutes silence	Even the wildlife pauses
But things speed up that afternoon - Paulie borrows Niece Shari's groovy roadbike	That evening in Brisbane (lunch in Oxford) the lads have a wine tasting catch up	Some of which is recorded as video in the fim section of this website.
Some honest but messy work on the fish pond at the St Lucia Atherton's to wind up the month	Led at an appropriately safe social distance by the master of the house	And Olivia's jumper is nearly finished... just has to be sewn togeather
