    The COVID-19 vaccine rollout in Australia has begun

    Awesome, a third vertex. But back on topic, as a member of my implausibly large and geographically spread family purportedly once allegedly said.

    The COVID-19 vaccine rollout in Australia has begun

    I love these ones where it’s hard to pick which side is crazier. But QS for the win.

    New Amex statement credits

    I bought some booze from Merivale at Home, and it was processed as a Stripe transaction. I had to escalate it three times by chat to get a resolution.

    Australian Reports of the Virus Spread

    A fellow columnist, Matthew Parris, quotes an imperishable account of the lockdown by a Times reader: “middle class people hiding and working class people bringing them things”. No wonder that some in the first tribe romanticise what has been the definition of a necessary evil. I keep thinking...

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    Just reading between the lines, I'm sensing that you see a certain degree of pathos in the way government officials have handled the pandemic?

    Australian Reports of the Virus Spread

    I see. So there's a "national plan" that every single state and territory is interpreting in its own way, and you believe the problem is with them rather than the "national plan"? Seriously puzzled by this fixation with Andrew Barr given that the ACT is the fastest vaccinating jurisdiction...

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    No. A citizen is a citizen is a citizen. People just need to mind their own effing business. And the government's inability to get citizens and permanent residents (of all descriptions) "home" needs to be seen as what it is: a complete failure.

    Classic Reward seats refund turn to cash??

    I think you'll find it's the same old same old valuation once the taxes paid in addition to those 82,000 points are taken into consideration.

    Predictions of when international flights may resume/bans lifted

    They want a WHO declaration that the pandemic is 'over'. Which they may get around a year from now. Good luck to airlines trying to plan around that, though.
