whatevs ;) Say hi to M from us both :)

Going to be warm this weekend and possibly damp on Saturday afternoon. This weather is keeping our garden looking very nice.

18 and I'm surprised it was that high!

No travel plans thread for 2025? If there is mods, please merge. I decided to post after last night's bookings. Start the year in Busan Korea. We fly to Seoul on Dec 24. We'll spend 13 days between Seoul, Jeju, Busan and Gyeongju. Another dsc run to CHC over Oz Day weekend. Staying down at...

Blimey, four pages! For anyone saying it wouldn't/couldn't be on fta tv I call bs. There is so much graphic sex and violence on every channel on fta tv. Once graphic sex and nudity was the preserve of SBS in its early days. Now it's every channel, and then there's the streaming channels. Just...

I was a tad excited!

Richie McCaw sat beside me on QF134 from CHC-to BNE yesterday afternoon. Only famous if you follow rugby. I hadn't even noticed until the the fa came and asked about pre-flight drinks and said "Welcome Mr bPeteb, welcome Mr McCaw". I looked around at him and said "oh, I'm gunna have some...

Thursday evening BNE-CHC. Spicy prawns. It was tasty. I'm enjoying the new salads. NP green leaves seem to have gone? Unfortunately no photos of the return. Meal yesterday afternoon CHC-BNE was ok to look at but failed in execution. Nice salad with some salmon draped across the top of it and...

Good news that the plan is to extend the codeshare to flights to other southern African destinations. Very much enjoyed our Airlink flight to Livingstone.

Chu the Phat is excellent!

Raro is just a couple of tours on the lagoon at Muri. We didn't bother. Aitutake is definitely a snorkelers paradise. We've done three different lagoon cruises and all focused on snorkeling. I suppose you could just sit on the boat, but you can only look out across the water for so long. You...

hahaha! Perfect :)

I'm a platinum for dinner Friday and Saturday. I'll check with bAlt. Daytime out for me as we'll be in the process of moving house that weekend

Because we have some overseas travel booked and that card was used I was holding off cancelling. I've been sent the messages telling me I have a year free so I'll hang onto it now for a bit longer. bAlt will cancel his and apply for the Bankwest card.

No, not at all. You don't get out of the vehicle at any point during a safari. The only place you would be able to use one would be at a lodge like RF started his trip at.

From a safari perspective, if you're not ready to go Seat0B you'll miss out. We were also leaving lodged for our next destination by 7.30 on a number of mornings. Could be problematic for you.

One thing I just realised I hadn't added was bAlt's fantastic list of creatrues we encountered on our trip MOSI OI TUNYA and Zambezi River White Rhinos 9, Burchell’s Zebras, Giraffes, Elephants, Chacma baboons, Vervet monkeys, Swallows, Vulture, Bee-eater, Hamerkop, Egrets, Goliath heron...

Looks like a great trip RF. If you contact WE they'll be able to confirm if it's with Kibooko but I'm pretty sure it will be. Some of their shorter 'lodge' trips are in smaller vehicles (MB Spinters) but I'm not sure if this will be classed as that. This goes to both sides of the delta as well...

We were sat at the gate at JNB just two weeks ago and two names were called and asked to go to the service desk. I watched two people go up and I don't know that I have ever seen a couple so excited. They sat down and the smiles were gigantic. More cloud 99 than 9. They ended up in a front of...

Thanks mods and thanks all for your kind comments. I really appreciate it, plus I do like writing and sharing :)
