Spent some time with family last week, including a dinner at my sister's, where we got to meet her new (to us, not to her) partner and his 4yo daughter. Our brother was there with his two kids, and my brother and sister's mother was also there. So, my teen arrives and immediately the three...

We saw Back to the Future, The Play that goes Wrong, Drag The Musical and Hadestown in November. Would recommend all. Though, maybe only Drag the Musical if you loved NKOTB/Joey McIntyre as a teen. ;) :P

I booked a room at Hilton ADL for some nights in the coming week when it was showing as unavailable (not surprising as the main team hotel for the Tour Down Under). I used the Diamond guarantee to book. Looked at the app yesterday, and a cost was showing for my room ... Diamon guarantee rate of...

With QF, only if that QFF member has Points Club or Points Club Plus.

FIL update: For reasons I'm not sure about, FIL had his cataract surgeries in December (last I knew his cardiologist had said earlier in 2024 to abandon all plans for further surgeries - clearly, FIL's overall condition hasn't been as bad as predicted in May/June 2024, so it was worth...

Just booked the Voco for our accommodation. We're on QF511 and QF145 on 7 March Return flights: QF144 and 534 on 9 March.

Didn't get the email. Nor did my Teen (still comes to me).

More two degrees of separation in good old BNE @QF WP. I thought I recognised Sid from your photos. He also works for my step-sister and her husband in their catering business. I'm just used to seeing him in their dark blue check shirts, not a plain white one!

Brisbane!

I understand, I'm just not sure how I can broach it in a way that would be received well, and more crucially, result in action. Dad already has a skinny wife telling him to eat less, etc. Nagging or lecturing won't help. I'm sure his surgeons must have broached it with him. He does not enjoy...

Dad's in recovery after his TURP, apparently it went well. Mum just texted (Mum and Dad have not been married to one another since the 70s); my 98yo Grandma fell on her way to lunch, just in the doorway of her room. The RN at her home is looking after her, G'ma didn't hit her head, but landed...

Not a topic I suspect I can broach successfully. 😕

Talked to my Dad last night, was slightly concerned as when I first rang, they had guests over and my step-mother commented about needing to catch me up on Dad's medical news. Anyway, Dad's off to Club Wes on Friday for a TURP, expected to stay over the weekend and be discharged on Monday. I'm...

Jan: Crash Mr Katie's annual boy's trip in ADL, but only for the weekend Mar: W/end with Mr Katie in AL for AFF dinner May: Usually have a conference in the US, but not sure it'll be held next year July/August: Europe, going on a 7 day Rhine cruise with my Mum from AMS to Basel. Knitting theme...

Holy canoli! That lady used to teach my Teen Japanese at high school. :oops:

WCMO: My current employer only deposits super quarterly. Including my additional contribution. :mad:

People with umbrellas who only consider what happens with their umbrella spikes in front of them, not behind or to the side of them. People with umbrellas who stand in front of someone in a poncho and don't consider they are now blocking the view of said poncho wearer. These were my thoughts...

QF12 dep LAX 1/12 Menu posted above I found the chicken dry, as did @CaptainCurtis in his review. The diced capsicum, etc, would have been better as a sauce. Didn’t touch the potatoes, the snow peas were yummy. Dessert was nice once I scraped all the fruit gel off the top (I prefer plain...

Joel Edgerton and fam on QF12 overnight.

Hahaha! I madethe same choices, and thought he same of the chicken. I scraped off most of thr mandarin gel. This is a new November menu, was an older menu and the older service style when I flew QF12 on 31/10.
