No, they are various sliced meats:

Thank you for the clarification. I've learnt a new word and understand the category of sliced meats much better now.

I'd love to come to the dinner but unfortunately I am Bronze due to family commitments.

Am I imagining that I saw Hilton Doubletree for $152/night a couple of weeks ago and thought with the $50 Amex cashback that was a great deal. Now up to $169/night.

Any way to get it back down to $152/night?

 

[JohnK]

Apologies to those attending but rewards flights booked BNE-MEL. Arrive Friday night and depart Sunday evening.

Checked Hilton Doubletree again and cheapest rate now is $177/night. May have to find a comfortable park bench.

And Goodonya the golf clubs have expressed their desire to tag along. I expect (read praying) an invitation to your exclusive golf club for the Saturday before dinner.

Have you tried clearing your cookies? Just in case they might be increasing prices for you only, after your repeated searches.

What sort of rate are you seeing?

Nevermind... I get $177 as well no matter what I try...

Not the end of the world. I'll wait a little while longer and then book IHG or Accor hotel somewhere.

No apology necessary. It will be good to see you. And +1?

Some people may need an apology upfront.

My fiancée won't be attending as she is in the middle of a special project. She does want to do attend the HKG lounge crawl in June though.

For those still looking the prepaid rate at DT is now $169 for the 19th Dec. Gov't, AAA and others $189.

HSW starts at approx $500for Gov't rate and $514 for prepaid. :shock:

 

[Sprucegoose]

I wish I could; it would demand me travelling some 10,000 miles to do so, though.

And the problem with that is ?

G'day JohnK. I'm happy to take you out to my golf course one day. However on Saturdays they don't allow Visitors due to busy comp and the 19th is Monthly Medal as well. However I may be able to get you on in the afternoon field that day but chances are slim (I did have a chat with the pro and front office).

 

[tuapekastar]

Now paid up!

Glad I got the Sofitel for $115.

I'd have been happy with that, still have to find some accommodation for 3 nights
