Didn't see him in the Ex Lounge - but the Sheraton girl in the lounge did ask us if we were Cadels parents !!!!

Tim Horan in Syd J lounge yesterday. Could have been mistaken for a corporate high flyer rather than ex Wallaby (assuming he is stlll in banking)

Had Poh from masterchef on QF750 today. Some adoring fans of hers were jamming up the desks at Adelaide and I almost didn't get my luggage in on time
 
Dennis Cometti and Leigh Matthews in the MEL J Lounge last night. I assume that (like myself) they had come straight from the MCG.
 
Fire brigade units were called to Liam Payne's 34th floor apartment. Now I had never heard of One Direction but seeing he had a fire on his balcony we almost got to meet running down the fire escape. Teens would know this band member and now we have friends daughters / grand daughters wanting to go to Canary Wharf in London to catch a glimpse /photo/kiss.

Made the news of course. Must be all those women with a flame for him...
 
A whole class of teenie girls now want to fly to London from Perth so One Direction have not flamed out on stage just yet. I have made a mental note to reconsider ever getting a place with wooden balconies. Thank you Liam for getting 35 fire fighters some on the job training.
Having done a 38 floor descent down a fire escape I was not keen on doing a bigger descent in Canary Wharf.
 
Gail Kelly CEO of Westpac on QF 739 SYDADL this morning 10/9/13. Interesting, I got a shadow (I am way below WP) but she did not.

There should be more women at the top of our companies/organisations.

I met her recently at a Westpac lunch. She seems like a very genuine person. I even have a photo taken with her :) (so embarrassing but husband insisted)
 
Today I saw someone at the baggage carousel 5 (from a QF flight from NZ to SYD not sure which) this morning met by their chauffeur and a federal police officer, it looked like Clive Palmer but not sure, the APF officer lead him out. I have never seen that before. I was at carousel 4 as arrived on VA51 so dont know the QF flight number.

Jesinta Campbell in the SYD Domestic Virgin lounge right now. She is rather beautiful but I only worked out it was her from her luggage tags on her bags going through the xray machine in front of me.
Google her if you don't believe the spelling...

Clive has a rather nice Bombardier Global Express with a range of about 5,000nm. Pretty sure he doesn't fly commercial :)
