    UK Bank Accounts

    I opened a USBC account in Salisbury UK, which I still have, at the local Australian USBC branch several years ago. You do not have to be a Premier type at all, just pay a hundred dollars. Perhaps the price has increased, but it's there for ever more. There is so much misinformation on this...

    Order a Qantas "care pack" for $25

    Yes, I had no idea that one had to watch the QF site night and day. I'd ask Brabinger to keep an eye on things, but he may have to ensure Lady Fforbes-Hamilton is treated fairly.

    Congratulations to Matt 01 on receiving such largesse, and to Mts Terryn on knowing about it.

    Order a Qantas "care pack" for $25

    Typical. I'd have bought some for family members, but it would have been nice if Qantas had let us all know.

    Angry about proposed travel ban exemption for footballers

    I wonder if Pangai's indefinite suspension satisfies? Bennett's two weeks? As lonewolf and lovetravellingoz have mentioned very well, it's not for purely social reasons that there are special protocols which apply to Australia's elite athletes. They don't apply to any friends of superseded...

    Angry about proposed travel ban exemption for footballers

    The footballers must abide by far stricter rules than apply to the rest of us. That's what a bubble is. Those who do not are fined heavily - how would you like a 20 or fifty thou fine if you had the enormous hide to eat out when everyone at the other tables was permitted to do so?

    Kangaroo Island, SA

    We flew from Brisbane to Adelaide, then to Kingscote, for a four-night stay several years ago, then early morning bus to Penneshaw, followed by the ferry and bus to Adelaide, flew home, leaving Adelaide in mid-afternoon. This was with a small group, so the sight-seeing was laid on, but if...

    Stuck in quarantine.....where would you be?

    In winter? I went to Coles Bay from Launceston in July 1967 in a Cessna 206 when they were thinking of turning the place into a resort, and when it was a reasonable place to go .

    Could it be adios Neil Perry?

    Interesting, and I'm sure the Qantas First Ckass lounge was, well, First Class, but why on earth did you mention this?

    Qantas Status Credits Boost

    Was not generous for most members at all. Where did you get that idea?

    Qantas Status Credits Boost

    Yes, lucky for some. Try having a joining date of 31 January, when you get nothing, as you got virtually nothing previously Olivia has loused this up enormously.

    Use of OOL by NSW residents to access NNSW

    O\Personally, as a Queenslander, as is Gecko24 apparently, it is manna from heaven that we are spared southerners for a few months, Victorians possibly indefinitely. It has been wonderful to live again the days before the southerners invaded the coasts, both south and north of Brisbane. Don't...

    QF Flights LST-BNE 22/6/20

    God help us. A "gluten free" meal, eh? Such did not exist until recently. What would have happened if the crew had not been able to find one? Would this prima donna have had anything to eat? For an hour or two. She would starve, wouldn't she? Good grief.

    Everyone from a small town in every state has a similar story, and has had for sixty years or more.

    Perhaps it would be kinder to lend those tags.
