      @@jeromecarlson9144 .... We don't want the government having the ability to tell us what, where, and when we can do something. That was literally the entire point. Do you need your politician to tell you what, when, where you should do and how safe you need to be? Do you not have the ability to.... figure out things yourselves??

    A year later looking back on the start of the 2021 season... was it everything you hoped for. It was refreshing to see how reluctant you were to leave the comforts of W. Australia. I think a lot of people felt that way... right at the height of COVID. I also find it hilarious to see how eager and excited you were at the start of the season to just being thankful that you could return home.

    Hi Kym. Just taking a short break from banging my head against the wall for only discovering your channel today, to let you know I've just subscribed to it, and I am looking foward to check out both your videos and your pics. Hopefully they will allow public to atend the portuguese GP in May, and if that's the case maybe I'll even have a chance to see you at work there. All the best to you and keep up the good work.

      Well done for discovering it. And if I do see you in Portugal it will be at a distance no doubt

      @@KymIllman yeah pretty sure it will be the case. But anyway, that's one circuit I'm reasly curious to see the photos you and the other photographers come up with. I know I'm partial, but that is an amazing track and it does lend itself to amazing shots, and amazing races to 😁

    That's awesome mate looking forward to your photos good to see you back trackside. I'm sure you're both happy and a little worried about coming back into Australia as the covid rules seem to change every day. Have fun mate 🤙📸
