AFTER the physical tussle between Mornington and Frankston on the Saturday previous, a large contigent, including many ladies, journeyed by the special to Hastings on Saturday last in the expectancy of seeing a rattling game between Hastings and Frankston, but, whilst the Hastings people were joyful, the Frankstonites were as gloomy as a “a wet Saturday night.” Not that they begrudged Hastings the sweets of victory, but because they fought with a punctured side – you know, there were holes in it.

A CORRESPONDENT writes the following supplementary to the recent articles in Wayside Notes relative to the future of the Mornington Peninsula as a national asset: I would like to supplement the very picturesque account of Balnarring and other Peninsula districts that appeared in the “Standard” recently.

After an increase of just three cases in ten weeks, the Mornington Peninsula has now had eight new cases in a week. And as the state’s total climbs dramatically higher, it seems the peninsula may not be immune from the second wave. Only last week, the Mornington Peninsula Shire and organisations like the Committee for the Mornington Peninsula were lamenting being bundled into the metropolitan Melbourne return to level three restrictions, arguing that the peninsula was not part of metro Melbourne.

WHEN the Premier Daniel Andrews announced a return to stage three restrictions last Tuesday, he also tackled the vexing question of what to do with the hundreds of thousands of students due back at school this week for the beginning of term three. The premier’s solution was to get VCE and specialist school children back, but to extend school holidays for those in prep to year 10.
