F lounge Champagne Appreciation Day Aug 27 (Or post Aug 24 wake)

[kpc]

I am not sure I have picked the best time of the year to start losing some weight given yesterdays breakfast:

I've lost 5 kgs in the last month by running 4-5 kms each day, abstaining from alcohol (I miss my red ), and avoiding a lot of my fav foods. I fear a visit to the F lounge could undo all my hard work the last month.....! So with regret, I might give this a miss Mark. PS in Feb, I had breakfast and lunch in the F lounge before my flight to SFO...it was a most uncomfortable flight, and I swear I will never be so greedy again!!

I won't be able to attend as I'll be at a seminar in Melbourne.

Have fun all

Sorry to miss you KPC, its been a while since DRW, hope to see you in CBR at least! And yes, with the exception of F lounges and ICs I am giving the alcohol a miss as well, the GCC has got me in some good habits with exercise I am keen to work on!

Are there any guest spots left for F Lounging on Saturday?? I'd like to partake since I missed the last one due to dry july.

Also will anyone we returning to SYD on Saturday, wouldn't mind having a look at the new DJ MEL lounge.

I am not currently guesting anyone (traveling alone ex-AKL), so you are welcome to this spot.

Thanks Samiam can you PM me regarding logistics please? I'll be in SYD, so can check in at noon I guess, where do I meet you and the other AFFs?

To spot me, as my profile suggests, I'll be the one at the service counter at check in kindly requesting an exit row seat.

Looking forward to it! I've read a few blogs, do they have Verve or is it Tattinger all the way?

You have a choice of three (and sometimes more):

Verve
Tattinger
Bollinger

These were on offer a few weeks ago.

Enjoy the afternoon there!

Thanks for the detailed description, I am looking forward to the tasting...

I'll see you at the T2 QP on Saturday morning.

Looking forward to some Verve and meeting some fellow AFFers.

There ya go- a choice of 2 - AFF'ers that is.

Had the Veuve this morning- prefer the Taittinger- but that will be decided on Saturday!!

I have read on other threads that the popular Champagne is the Tattinger, however I will not let that cloud my judgement for Saturday.

So many WP to choose from, I thank you both in advance.

Looking forward to a day of food, drinks and airports. Cheers!

ok question for you all

A mate and I have to fly to CBR for a conference at the end of September, and being a DRW boy and not yet experiencing the F lounge in either Syd or Mel, which flights on JQ are international ones so we can give it a burl?

Cheers

Actually, I believe a "[not so] Dry run" was executed on Saturday (20th).

All in the name of research, and discovering a new favorite chardonnay!

 

[nlagalle]

So how did the appreciation go??

 

[markis10]

A good day was had by all despite JQ putting SAMIAM into 4 hour detention for flying LAN. The Pav was voted the dish of the day with Eggs bene coming second, and the jury is still out on the bubbly, requiring a return visit! Nice to catch nlagalle on arrival in MEL!

Whatever tall stories you heard - they were all true.
