    The BYO Wine Restaurant Thread

    Cliche in North Adelaide, went with a group of 10 and took 12 bottles plus 2 magnums. Charged us $5 per person corkage. Not sure if this is standard or if the organiser had a connection. Food was extremely good to boot.

    Virgin Lounge Food

    Noticed on past few visits to the ADL lounge that the muesli has gone from being in one of those larger glass containers next to the Weetbix and others to now a tiny bowl next to the fruit, barely enough in it for one serve.

    Sparkling (Shiraz or Red) Recommendations?

    Haven't seen the Hentley Farm Black Beauty mentioned yet so will put that forward. Had the 2010 on Christmas Day and it was a cracker. It is about $60 a bottle from memory.

    Targeted Jan '18 Promotions: 2xSC's or 2xPoints or +1K points per flight or nada!

    Double points offer for me. Am about ~160 SC shy of Platinum needed in next 6 weeks, however, as per some other peoples views I am happy enough with Gold and don't feel the need to book anything extra to get to Platinum in that period.

    If I were you and you have the option where you have good help to leave your child and are comfortable travelling away from them I would without doubt treat yourself to a trip to Europe or NYC for the upcoming big birthday. I did Samoa with my wife, parents and then 8 month old. Was a great...

    Wendouree allocations and general discussion

    Only ordered a few of everything, so a pretty modest order after getting only Shiraz Malbec last year. One mate ordered half a dozen of everything and another ordered half a dozen Shiraz, Cab Sav and Cab Malbec, neither had card charged. Agreed way too much read into crayon marking etc., guess...

    Velocity Reward Seats..........Where Art Thou???

    I did a quick search for a J class LAX-BNE/SYD/MEL for my brother back in March for a 3 day window in September of this year thinking it would be fruitless, found two options for him but he was unsure on his exact plans (reliant on wedding party plans). He finally locked his plans down 2 weeks...

    Re: ANZ Rewards Travel Adventure now 60,000 velocity points; 1 domestic return flight I made it through to someone today who acknowledged that they already had my Velocity number on file and that the terms and conditions state 3 months for processing of bonus points. I couldn't be bothered...

    Return to Rockford - 2nd April 2017

    Would have loved to have got on board this, unfortunately I am registered to do the Clare Valley half marathon that morning. Am certainly not a fast enough runner to finish in time and hop in a car for the journey down the road!
