I agree @Rebus that AUS bowlers v ENG batsmen will be the decisive battle this Ashes. Our batting woes will also be complemented by the relatively weak ENG bowling attack. But if ENG bat well, AUS will be on the receiving end of a hiding. If our bowlers dominate, our batsmen may just score...

I got the same. Didn't use my 10% off perk in July and not looking like using this month. Other perks will not be used as better "rewards" can be sourced elsewhere. For eg, there is a new offer for 10% off $60 instore spend at BWS. That's not going to cut it against a regular 20-30%...

OP fits the description of a "rusted on" QF loyalist. Hard to break the shackles when status is involved.

And to save me doing this later, here is The Simpsons predicting where this is heading:

Colours are fine but font is a tad small. Logo is meh. I'll need to zoom in or maybe revert to the old one.

As usual, The Simpsons has already predicted this:

No change here. Still 8k SCs, and still needing 5k on VA.

This is a nice demonstration of why I assume all people are idiots until they prove otherwise.

There was a teaser in the Amex email received yesterday but you'll have to forgive me for not getting excited about 5pts/$ at small retailers. Also forgive my greed but it is not enough of an inducement to go out of my way to visit such retailers, in the same way that I don't rush to buy deli...

Sacre bleu! My latest flights and SC earn indicates that in most instances I'll actually be better off under the new scheme. Being CBR-based, it's not often I purchase a fare (usually Choice) - to anywhere - for under $180. It can be done according to the advertising, but rarely the case when...

Most of the miners are having a good run in the last month or so. Good for super balances.

OTOH, I'm surprised they didn't palm him off.

I've often thought about that. Given the more common likely scenario of very little income being generated by the vids, is it possible to offset the expenses against other income?

Ambush style, filming others whether they like it or not, is unpleasant viewing. Reeks of "Look at meeeee!!!!!" vibes. Impressive Chinese language skills though.

So you had 3 sectors before this trip? Wouldn't that mean you need 5 sectors before 17 July to get to WP before this trip? 4 sectors needed to maintain/achieve gold, 8 sectors for platinum, in addition to the SC requirements.

I travel because I have to. It is under my skin and I am hopelessly addicted. To all parts of the process that is - the planning/research, the execution, the challenges/experience, the satisfaction and the memories. So if I don't travel, I am not "healthy". It makes me a "better" person, but...

Where do they park? The 1hr free parking isn't intended for people to leave the car at.

Not sure how good they'd be for ANC of bathroom noises which, IME, are complex and has a fairly wide range of frequencies, no doubt a function of the lounge food. There's the head turning high frequency tweet type right down to the worrisome but dreaded low rumbler. Far more difficult to adapt...

Happy Dude is Homer Simpson's alter-ego when pulling a telemarketing scam with an auto-dialler. My avatar is the good lord playing the great game. I got banned from using it for my work intranet avatar (apparently "dubious"), even though I said it was (English pro) Tommy Fleetwood (explanation...

There is a cafe in Parkes, NSW, with the same name. Any connection, other than coincidence?
