    Specials meals on economy international long-haul

    Best gluten free meal (necessary not choice) was EK out of FCO. Worst was QF out of SIN. QF was a single dried up chicken breast with no sauce at all, white rice and some limp bok choy. Ironically it was just what I needed as I was recovering from gastro.

    What cheeses me off

    A panel beater once told me especially with hail damage but also other damage to drop by a mechanic or panel shop and get them to give it a quick once over “off the record”. They may be able to tell if it will be written off unnecessarily. If you want to keep the car you then have the option to...

    Is it possible for a vein to “run out” during a blood test or is it operator error? Three tubes required, I was fully hydrated and never had a problem before. She said the first vein “ran out” after one tube and she had to have another go with the resulting bruise. Not on blood thinners.

    Sometimes things are just meant to happen, I had a large ovarian cyst removed - unknown initially if cancerous. Apparently some ovarian cancer can start in the appendix so they swung over to the other side to check out my appendix. I had acute appendicitis which probably would have blown in a...

    Whatever you get make sure it has an “emergency stop clip/attachment “ and that they use it. My mum came off the treadmill at the gym at age 75 and dislocated her shoulder badly.

I purchased one from Coles and the bar codes of inside and outside didn’t match therefore unusable. They very carefully slit the bottom edge of the holder then stick it together again with...

    Curiosity at this point as an MRI is yet to be done……..does a CT scan always show cause of TIA? A friend on the weekend was reaching for a high shelf in the bathroom when her right arm went completely limp. She couldn’t move it and says it felt like rubber. She called her son and the words were...

    Changes to Qantas Special Meals - 1 Oct 24

    I don’t mind the change. I’m Coeliac with lactose intolerance but would rather take some Lacteeze and have a decent dessert as opposed to an apple or dried fruit.

    Melbourne Airport Parking revenue grab?

    Interesting, 2 x 24 hours over three days shows $12 per 24hrs midweek but not over Friday Sat Sun. I don’t know how often they do it but T&C’s we’re updated July 24 but no mention of days 🤷🏻‍♀️ Edit: I guess this covers them
