Did Icks come by the crate, Mr Warks? Rings a bell as being one of them.

get one with scissors attached

CBR never will be a priority for Virgin; unfortunately for those that have the Capital as their start and end point.

Wasn't Passiona in the Coke/Fanta camp or was it a Cottee's product RF? Could be wrong, but didn't it appear in the 70's? (pretty sure dentists would have *loved* all products mentioned so far)

Wow CE, I'd forgotten about those screw tops - wonder if they'd ever return, lol. I'm with you Ikara re Tarax (not influenced by Joffa Boy or those Peters spider scoundrels Zig & Zag either). Mainly because they had one of those 'prize under the bottle cap promotions' in the mid 60's and I...

I'm with Harvey. Put a case forward - what do you have to lose. (doing nothing is a zero outcome)

spot on. without a) & b) there is no Amex.

totally agree

not a good situation

(directed to the Victorians out there of senior vintage) - Armstrong steps on the moon - which lemonade were you drinking at the time? Was it Marchants jingle " spark-a-lark-a-lark-a-lark-a-ling, just say Marchants, please!" or was it Tarax's "hi-bubble, hi-bubble, hi-bubble, hi-bubble lemonade...

If this was a stock market forum like Hotcopper I would agree. But as a traveller, what Rydges offer for x$ and what another chain offers for the same price, or less, leads me to consider "delusional" an apt description. Too many chiefs and too many indians in the Rydges camp that the average...

Of all the hotel chains, Rydges, (under the AHL banner) are the most deluded about price when you consider their (generally) cusp CBD location, room size and furnishings, and each individual hotel's features. {AHD sp keeps going up though}. Generally dated all round.

All the delays, set-backs and re-calculations of 'construction day 1' of the Virgin Hobart Lounge seem to point to the same place - someone isn't being honest. It's only Hobart - the impact is minimal, keep rolling out the porkies. It's more likely HBA won't be built in the next 10 years than it...

Made the mistake of using Avis AKL last year. Quoted me a price, but on payment GST was added. I specifically asked if the quote covered 'everything', the same operator did the return - surprise, surprise, he denied ever saying it. I just paid up, live and learn. Mentioned it to a wise concierge...

Tassie in Autumn - magic!

Very very impressed with the 40 mins Mogul. We take identical approaches - it's fun time! (when they ring) It's the only way to deal with it. My record is 17 minutes, before they hang up. I now count my OMG, golly and wow! responses. Have trouble squeezing more than 2 or 3 of each in before they...

I always ask for a Nigerian operator. (I wanna be scammed by the best!)

seemed inevitable

don't leave it too long ellen; closes in 2 days

Seems in the turbo-capitalist era in which we trudge the notion of 'complaint' has been replaced by 'feedback'. Unless you can capture a wide audience, basically the target reader couldn't really care less. As a single consumer you simply don't have the numbers or clout.
