    Safety while travelling alone

    This is on my mind after an incident this morning. For the moment, I’ll leave location details out, as I’m still travelling and in that location. FWIW, Mr Katie doesn’t know about this, as I want to speak to him personally, and I don’t need him worrying about me travelling alone. I’m in the US...

    Qantas Upgrades - Successes or Failures (post results)

    QF11 Y+ -> J, text came through around T-60. After my upgrade, EF was still showing J9 C9 D9 I9. I was fairly confident of this one coming through. Fingers crossed for the way home.

    I am thirsty. This full bowl will not do. You must give me fresh water.

    Whoops, just realised I didn't RSVP for Mr Katie tonight anyway. 😣 It's all good if he can't come.

    Dress code question for tonight (Friday night) at Chu the Phat - gentlemens, is anyone wearing shorts? I'm thinking Mr Katie would prefer to wear shorts and a polo shirt ... but he wouldn't want to be the only male type person doing so. TIA!

    So, what music are you listening to now?

    I ended up buying Chappell Roan's album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, the other week, much to my teen's horror. ;) She was less horrified by my purchase of Lil Nas X's Montero a couple of years ago. :D

    Sydney Theatre Thread

    I read some awful reviews of Brightman early on, so decided it wasn't worth travelling to see. Not even sure if it's showing in Brisbane.

    Little things I like

    When your upgrade request for a family member comes through! Dad and step-mum upgraded on QF103 tomorrow, Y+ to J. 🩷 They're both thrilled, and this will likely be their last international flight together (they are cruising back from HNL). Dad now has quite bad anxiety over flying, and had a...

    What cheeses me off

    Or you get home, a week later do the washing, and find a new pair of jeans has a security tag attached! Didn't beep when we left the store, nor when I took it back to get it removed. The sales assistant helping us that afternoon seriously needed some coffee, sugar, a nap, or all three!

    What cheeses me off

    Me. A bit overly dramatic, but I sometimes wonder if I should have been a mother.

    Domestic to international transfer at LAX

    As long as it's the one PNR and any luggage is booked through, no worries. Separate PNRs with luggage - need to collect luggage and take it to TBIT. Separate PNRs with HLO- use the airside connector from T4 to TBIT and collect your BP, if required, from the Oneworld or QF FLounge.

    General Medical issues thread

    Great text message from my BFF yesterday - "Cancer free is me!" She had a few moles/skin bits cut out a few weeks ago, and the one on her tummy tested positive as melanoma. So back to cut more out last week. Really relived the pathology came back so quickly and she wasn't stressing all week...

    ☕ What's your definition of "good" coffee?

    Barista coffee, where possible, with my home barista. Most work days I'm happy enough with the coffee machine that grinds beans and makes me a long black when I press the button! Decided last year to stop spending $6/day on coffee as the machine is decent enough. In the US, I do drink...
