If you knew it was your last race, wouldn't you want to go out on a high?

Since it has been introduced, the one point has been awarded to the fasted lap if they were in the top ten. If you got fasted lap and were outside the top ten then you still had the fastest lap, you just didn't get a point.

WCMO is sneaky EFTPOS machines that don't show the card surcharge until *after* you tap. I disagree with the surcharges so always choose another payment method when presented with them. Bought something for $39.99. EFTPOS machine screen said $39.99. Tapped and screen changed briefly to $40.43...

@Doug_Westcott would you be so kind to guest @CaptJCool in MEL? In theory, that is, as I expect we will all be arriving at different times. So who knows who will be guesting who! That does take up all the guest spots for now in MEL.

Bronze for me. But thank you for considering the Friday options.

Sounds like quite the party indeed. I have started a table with travel and hotel arrangements on the first page. Don’t worry if your details aren’t in it yet, I am working my way through the posts. Of course you don’t need to share your travel/accommodation arrangements if you don’t want to.

In the MEL lounge for the next 30 minutes or so.

Hmm, my initial booking was for 8, based on previous AKL dinners. Might have to go to 15!

Thank you for the trip report. I only have one question - would you travel HLO again? Or was the convenience outweighed by what you couldn't take?

Yes Plat supp card holders can access the Centurion lounge.

Sure. Welcome aboard.

Fixed.

From memory I visited the one near the Amex lounge and it was not very flash.

I have. Don't expect brands you recognise in many of the dozens.

I have updated post #1 with the time.

Now that would be tempting. ;)

I do. ;)

For those waiting to book, prices are climbing. So don't expect any last minute deals.

Can you please post any changes to the menus if you get the chance?

Thanks. I always carry a departure and arrival card with me. My last few arrivals have been so quick I have been tempted to ditch them. Looks like I will be keeping them for a while yet.
