So is anyone else a fan of Rick Stein's food? I haven't been lucky enough to eat at his restaurant in England but love his shows and his cookbooks. I may be a bit slow, but I've just found out that he's opened a restaurant in Australia. Rick Stein at Bannisters I can't wait to get the...

Am I the only one that immediately thought "This sounds like the beginning of a joke.... There's a Baptist Minister, a Jewish Rabbi and a Catholic Priest sitting together on a plane...."

Jennifer Hawkins on my left and Miranda Kerr on my right... then I woke up. :lol: I can't say that I've had anyone strange or special next to me. I usually have my head buried in a book from the second I sit down.

I know you said you didn't want a 3 door car, but how about the Fiat 500. That's what I'd be getting if I was after a little city runabout. Another car to think about is the Subaru Impreza. Sub 30k, a bit more expensive to run than a Corolla, but it's a very safe car. I'm onto my second...

Maybe that's what djfuzz means by "people watching" :lol:

Excellent, more places to visit when I'm over there for a holiday in 2 weeks. This is turning into a food holiday for us! A few on my list: (Disclaimer - these are places I haven't tried but will be in a few weeks) Harbourside Buffet Restaurant - Intercontinental HK: Recommended by a foodie...

If it's $2k HKD, just exchange here and take the cash. I'm assuming you need $2k AUD. I'm in a similar position. I have a trip to HK in 2 weeks and will be taking approx $2k AUD. I don't travel internationally much anymore so I don't really bother with credit cards etc. I'll be taking...

I had a conversation with my regular Melbourne driver. He said that the cabbies take the voucher to a broker who gives them approx 2 percent of the transaction fee in CASH. This goes to the driver, not the owner. Simple and smart business really. I'm sure that nobody here will say no thanks to...

Wow, that's not good. I hope you didn't lose too much data that wasn't backed up.

They need to move out of the stone age with their marketing. Think of how successful the "Worlds Best Job" campaign was. Nothing better than free advertising. How about an Amazing Race style race around Australia with $1M as the prize? Surely that would get broadcast around the world. They...

I would never think of leaving things behind unless they were with someone I trusted. I'm even cautious about leaving things around when I go for another drink. That's just paranoid me though.... and work drilling it into me. These days you don't even have to have your wallet stolen to lose...

Re: AMEX not accepted or surchage Not like Sammie's Girls (formerly Sam's Seafood), a seafood shop in Brisbane who's transactions show up as "Sammie's Girls". :oops:

Thanks for this. I did a quick google search and it looks like they have one 200 metres from the hotel I'm staying at in Kowloon.

I am not a legal expert by any means and not sure whether this question accounts for anything in your benifit. Who earned the points? If it was you, surely that would mean that you are entitled to a high percentage of the worth of those points. As I said, I'm not expert and logic seems to have...

Thanks for the advice everyone. I'm staying at an IC property so I'm guessing they might have the Australia Network. I'm going to drop them an email to check. Haha excellent advice. I'll send you the bill :p I was thinking about sending her to a day spa for a nice massage or something.
