Welcome to our special COVID19 Lockdown 2.0 podcast.
Lane Cove Testing Sites
As of 29th June 2021, there are no exposure sites in the Lane Cove Council area. However, there are exposure sites in nearby suburbs like North Ryde, Macquarie Park and Drummoyne. If you have any symptoms, get tested.
The closest testing centres with the quickest turnaround times information can be found here. Please note that before this latest lockdown, results were coming back from private testing centres within six hours – they are now taking longer to come back.
Where Can I get Vaccinated for Astra Zeneca?
The Ryde Respiratory Clinic has vaccination spots available for Astra Zeneca. They are now vaccinating under 60’s if you provide your informed consent. One ITC follower (who is under 30) booked at 8.30 am in the morning and was vaccinated that morning.
What about Pfizer?
One Lane Cove Medical Practice has told their patients that they will be able to offer the Pfizer vaccination for patients aged 40 – 59 years from 21 July 2021. This consists of 2 vaccines, 3 weeks apart. Check with your Doctor to see if they will be able to book you in for Pfizer.
What Are Your Lockdown tips – Contact us on WhatsApp?
Do you have some lockdown tips? ( no tip too big or too small)
We want to hear from you, and you can leave us a voice message on our ITC's WhatsApp.
Just record a message on WhatsApp and it will be included in next week's special Lockdown Podcast - you will be a star. Leave you message - start it with Hi this is [insert name] and my lockdown tip is (we already know you are planning to leave a message saying this is insert my name LOL).
Just link up with us on WhatsApp - the good thing about ITC having WhatsApp is it will be easier to send us pictures and photos.
Put this number into your phone under In The Cove 0478 254 122
ITC on TV
You can see ITC on ABC's brand new current affairs trivia show Win the Week. A trivia/comedy show about current affairs and ITC is a contestant as we are bona fide a big Trivia nerd (come and play with me at one of our local trivia nights at The Alcott Lane Cove or Longueville Hotel). Link to iView here.
The show is on at 8.00 pm on Wednesday on ABC or you can stream on iView if you miss it. Please watch and have a laugh at me or with me (either is acceptable). It is all about having a go.
PS ITC will be hosting charity trivia nights at The Alcott Lane Cove for local charities soon - The Alcott and ITC and lane cove locals raised over $10 000 for drought-stricken Cobar and Gunnedah two years ago and The Alcott wants to help fundraise again.
Chalk It Up Lane Cove
All you need to do is a drawing on your driveway or the footpath outside your home/apartment that brings joy to others – rainbows, unicorns, butterflies, hearts and positive messages. It does not matter if you live in a house or apartment. Everyone has a footpath outside their building. So go ahead and chalk up your driveway or footpath. Please ensure that kids are supervised.
ITC wants to get the whole family involved with making a work of art that will bring a smile to faces. Once you have created your masterpiece, please put it on your publicly displayed Instagram page (we can’t access private Instagram accounts) with the hashtags #inthecove and tell us what age group/category.
We will be contacting local businesses to provide prizes in the following categories:
Under 5 years6 – 12 years13 – 17 yearsOver 18/AdultFamily Entry (parent plus child/s)
