Free Mega Giveaway II

[BriarFlyer]

Adding my thanks for the fun, Danger and JessicaTam. I never knew armchair treasure hunting could be such fun! Also: some regret that the decluttering fairy visited my home last year.

I just did some typing for a couple of days.

@Danger put this whole thing together - and is still working on it.

Just out of curiosity, is this the ADL CL entrance you were referring to? Got to say, the entrance Matt01 took is much more impressive. I often wondered if there is another way to get there as I’ve never seen the politicians walking through the main reception etc, now I know.

The entrance Danger was looking for was the one on the concourse. The Photo you posted is the internal entrance, same one that I took last Sunday, however the door was open so I also snapped the second photo from behind the frost glass. In the second photo the lounge police was just off to the right at the top end of the corridor on the right, the lounge is off to the left.

It is a nice little lounge, in fact I was somewhat surprised at how such a nice lounge is when compared to the main QP. As I mentioned (I think), last year I followed someone in thinking ADL had opened a business lounge, the door was open and on that day there was no internal lounge police so I just went in. My presence was caught via the internal cameras and after about 10 minutes the lounge staff came up to inform me of my transgression. I was allowed to stay and let off with a warning of don't do it again.

Thanks so much @Danger and @JessicaTam - had a great time following this thread - have delayed sending my prepaid until today to give you time to deal with the rush

Wow. You wouldn’t think they’d go to that bother as you’d be well known in the Adelaide Club. Maybe just someone could have chatted to you as you exited.

The first batch of satchels has arrived today so thank you for that.

However, a couple of people failed to put their usernames and giveaway items on the back near the barcode. Could the person who sent me a 5kg regular post satchel in a B5-ish size red tough bag and the person who sent me a 3kg express post satchel (not Pushka), please send me a PM with your details.

Pushka, repete and ajd, your items will be posted tomorrow.

I have a note on my list saying your parcel didn't have a tracking label, blackcat20. Was yours the fancy one with a shipping label in a plastic sleeve?

 

[HeavyElectricity]

Thanks again @Danger - received the parcel today!

Yes thats the one (I use them for my business so I have a stack of them, its cheaper than going via the post office). I have access to the tracking from my end but it doesnt seem to have been scanned at any point.
