    Building a Home

    Figured I should post an update as I've made a few small changes after living in the house for a bit. First one I want to highlight is how I store my wine, as someone pointed out they thought the temp would fluctuate too much where I had originally envisaged it, and it was hard (and expensive)...

    QF6012 - A380 taking off & then landing in Sydney - what's this?

    Can't imagine the bill in terms of crew hours, landing fees, fuel... for 15 minutes (or so) of A380 air time!!

    How do you store your wine [+ Fridge/Cabinet recommendations]

    Your issue is really the space between shelves. If it's designed for bordeaux style, the shelves wont have enough space between them to comfortably slide with bottles laying on them if you have any bottle size that is bigger than bordeaux. And there are many wines that have weird and wonderful...

    Solar Panel, Power & Battery Discussion

    I used to use that but never had a system that easily output to it, and manual entry got old fast. Been a while since I posted here, but figure an update is well past due. I eventually upgraded my system from 6.6 to 13.2 with a 10kW inverter. I don't seem to have an export control issue at the...

    By the way, did I read somewhere that you're taking 8 to a future Stonewall lunch? Is this because you're an original member/a case of two tiers of membership, or is another Stonewaller providing the other half of the guest spots? /jealous!

    AFF Gathering #15 in NTL on 21 – 23 October 2022

    I caught the bus back into town and went for a walk back to the QT for a few drinks and some delicious food, then by the time I managed to get back to the airport I was very surprised to bump into @Hvr, @serfty and @FishFood who as you now know, had been delayed. No such issue with my flight...

    Do Visa/Mastercard Charge Cards exist?

    I would imagine HSBC Jade would offer a high limit, but I don't think it's a charge card facility.

    I also bought a dozen of the 2022 Alicante. Before the store updated at the start of October I was still able to order 18 more of the 2021 Alicante, so they may have stock of both. Might be worth calling them?

    I noticed the Dry Country didn't update from 2017, does that get released at a different time? First year as a Stonewaller so I'm not 100% sure on the timings now.

    Selecting "I'm travelling for xx_xx" affects the points earned

    Sounds more likely that there's an error in the booking engine. When you book for leisure (yourself) – and are logged in – you see a higher earn rate based on your status. Then, when you book for business (select a company) – and are logged in – the booking engine incorrectly shows you the...

    UK Platinum Charge Card …… gone

    That caught my eye as well and I wondered if this change came about because of some new laws/regulations in the UK that could catch them out.
