Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

It is aviatrices. I've taken too many Latin classes .

Actually, it's "pilots" now. More's the pity for the amusement with language... Quite archaic English usage. Even in Italian the word is "pilota" for both masculine and feminine. But this isn't the grammar thread!

what is it supposed to be? looks a bit like dog food ?

I'd make him eat plates of this and ask how he could possibly sign it off as a meal fit to serve in First (from QF1 last month).

Saw Bob Geldof in the Concorde Room the other day. He was really nice and had a decent chat.

what was it supposed to be?

Lobster.

In actual fact it tasted like mush in thousand island dressing, served with week old lettuce, and soggy croutons.

Three or four weeks ago now, but in the QF Domestic J lounge at MEL, a very tall and very slim chap who was almost certainly that 'Fitzy' fellow from The Project.

Lisa Wilkinson on Friday looking a little flustered having forgotten to take out her aerosols at QF SYD domestic security.

the J version looks a lot more appetising compared to the F one in that case!

Well we have long wanted some differentiation in meals between J and F. QF delivers for us again!

I believe it is the Pearl Harbor Rememberance Day on December 7th so possibly there as part of this.

That is correct.Most came over on an AA charter and they will be part of the Parade tomorrow.
PS-still the 6th here in Hawaii.

Magda Szubanski sharing row 1 with me on SYD-MEL (QF) on Saturday. She was also in the J lounge.

John Borghetti on MEL-SYD today (VA). Presumably a personal trip, as he was travelling with a lady and a small child. Kind of glad I didn't book J on that flight though, as from a few rows behind it appeared that the crew were fawning over John and ignoring the rest of the cabin.

Alan Joyce in the LAX F lounge on Dec 2nd. He was dressed impeccably as always and the staff in the lounge were on their best behaviour (they were also brilliant).

Sophie Monk in the QF Dom J lounge now. Walked past on her mobile and all I heard was "fark!"

 

[Milefest]

Leigh Sales in the VA Lounge SYD last night.
