You're probably right, but the way things are going, I think each and every occurrence needs to be called out…

Indeed - missing one of the many warnings is bad enough, but it would appear they missed or ignored all of them…

And well done to you also…

Perhaps, but we are all entitled to our own opinion, which we are allowed to express. Looking away from something is denial….

In the same way that I have a number of items in my car for 'just in case' stuff. So far, have had no need to use them, and I'm not intending to take them out.

Thanks - and ungrounded?

I don’t like being pedantic, but there is no such word as ‘upguage’. Try upgrade perhaps? It’s similar to when I read somewhere that an aircraft that had been grounded for technical reasons, was ‘ungrounded’??

In January we were flying SYD-PER on a cash ticket with a points upgrade to J approved. The weather was dodgy and QF were flying forward as many flights as they could, and we flew out two flights earlier, and luckily enough, still had J seats. Hope the same applies to you...

I also find it good for problem solving when your'e on your own...

Probably, but it was so long ago I've forgotten...

That said, I would suggest get on a bike. I did much the same as you, and now have 2 x TKR since 2009. I have to admit being fit though, at 40 I was the same weight as the day I joined the Navy as a 15 year old, a measly 10 stone 3 pounds....

Seems like the trend is spreading, a letter to the editor in this morning's West says 'When did "active wear" become acceptable to wear at the movies, pub, shopping centre, cafe or restaurant?'....

I can well remember the very full 747s flying in from Japan every second day or so, IIRC it was Sydney for the Opera House, then Ayres Rock, and then Cairns for the Barrier Reef trip and then home. Whatever happened to them? I was in Cairns for a few days when that was going on and I do recall...

I have had similar problems, but have never looked to see which type of terminal was being used, will do so in the future. The issue is becoming less of a problem though....

I would like to see the same sign at my Woolies checkout lanes....

I believe JB747 is referring to the US and Australian Defence Forces who had what they called exchange postings, whereby they sent 40 or so of their selected personnel our way, and we sent the same number to the US. The exchange postings were usually for 3 years, like for like, eg pilots with...

Thanks, but no thanks....

And I still recall the bagging that then Premier Colin Barnet got when he proposed the building of Optus Stadium, where Pink performed. The stadium has been regularly packed out for a wide variety of sport or entertainment since it was built.

Indeed, we had 5 framed prints bought in Taipei which were professionally wrapped by the gallery, bulky but not heavy and they accepted them at the oversized luggage point which was only a few metres from the other checkins. The best part was that on arrival in Perth they were first off with...
