2007 ! I often want to travel back in time .. I am onboard for your nostalgic Xmas trip.

Here it is ..just in time to assist you to achieve the same results at home for the taste and appearance of all those onboard meals.

My best guess is: August 2020 for domestic December 2020 for international My niece and her 3 children were/still are booked on Qatar London to Perth in late October 2020, but I am hoping she can cancel and rebook for 2021. This year is no time for a holiday.

It’s my son’s birthday today too. He lives in Melbourne, so no flying visit from Perth this year - just a gift in the mail and a Facetime call from home.... but I know that next year we can catch up again. This afternoon I had news from a friend, that another member of a club we belong to had...

I don’t have a hearing impairment, but I find myself strangely drawn to watching the very expressive faces of the Auslan interpeters during any media announcement from the PM.

Mostly lime, sometimes lemon peel or cucumber slices. I don’t want to start panic buying similar to the TP saga but... Has anyone thought about the fact that because some of the distilleries are now making much needed hand sanitiser, there could possibly be a world wide shortage of gin !

Many charity stores in WA have announced they are closing temporarily (no reopening dates given yet) and they have said they cannot even accept donations as they do not have staff to process these.

You are right at $6.99 a bottle it’s a bit on the pricey side !

Yes sure thing ....just give me enough time to get to my nearest Aldi liquor store 😀

@drron is there any information about the doses that would be required to treat Covid-19 ? Massive doses for critically ill patients with CV and ARDS, then taper dosage. Also I am presuming ..based on no information, just a wild guess - that it would be a short term regime for weeks or...

I saw this thread as being about what practical advice ,suggestions or help could be offered to Australians. I don’t think @teammongo imagined it would be about debating about patents or China. There are lots of other threads in AFF for that.

Do you have one yourself and what model do you recommend ?

The family of the latest person to die in WA of COVID19 have asked The West Australian newspaper 27/3/2020 to release his details and photo. It brings home the point that although most cases have pre-existing medical conditions, this man was 73 years old, but was fit and healthy up till that...

I read this on a BBC page and wondered if engineers in Australia could help ramp up production of ventilators as is happening in the UK. NHS have 8,000 and have ordered another 8,000 domestically and internationally - but need 30,000 ! Dyson have a prototype for a new type of respirator to be...

Is there a recipe section on AFF ? sharing is caring.. That Irish Soda bread sounds interesting.

Good to hear that the NHS is starting to mobilise with Excel Centre in London being converted and named NHS Nightingale with 2 x 2,000 bed wards. 11,700 retired doctors, nurses and medical Professionals recruited. plus 5,500 final year medics 18,700 final year nurses and an appeal for 25,000...

Wonderful photos John, what kind of cost per day was the cruise ? Even though the cost of crayfish on restaurant menus might have come down a little in the early COVID days, I reckon you have eaten your way through a fortune of crustacean each day ! 🦞
