Did anyone comment on the limited Australian wines chosen or were you all too polite ?

In that they were NZ

Not sure about the mac cheese , don't toy with classics is my mantra

I was a bit wary of it, but I did try it, and rather liked it....

Didn't ask, but I chose the Australian options available!

I think that wine list was chosen with the guest of honour in mind

Congratulations to everyone that got upgrades on the way home courtesy of the CL (and I believe that may have been close to everyone except me). I offered my boarding pass when I entered but was told it wasn't necessary. Pity, there were 9 empty seats in J on my flight as well ...

In my case, I don't believe row 41 would be considered an upgrade :shock:

Karma perhaps, for the sneaky upgrade on the way to Sydney?

I'm good a stitching wounds, hopeless at garments so I will be outsourcing that
We should both post photos of the finished product . I had a chat with mini-me about it this afternoon and she thought it an excellent idea, so thankyou

!

Me too. Mac and cheese isn't what I'd eat. But it was really really good.

About the wines, I'm afraid I stuck with the Sauv Blanc even with red meat. Bit it was a lovely drop. And I don't drink red wine.

I've got a really great photo of me with Neil Perry. Such a nice man.

No upgrade here. And yes, empty J seats.

I checked in at the CL, got 16B on a very full flight. Except for a very sparse J... ***SIGH***

[Pushka]

I wonder if Yo Yo Ma has left the CL yet?

I've always thought mac cheese revolting. But Mr Perry has converted me.

 

[danny09]

CL was awesome. Just wish it wasnt a one off thing.

No upgrade from SYD-PER, J was chockers. Hoping upgrade from PER-KGI when I board. In PER lounge now, thats chockers too.

 

[Pushka]

And thank you for carrying my bag Skyring. I thought the pink accessorised nicely on you.

That cost me points ...

 

[Anna]

7C with a platinum shadow for me on the way home. Feels almost like J when the plat shadow kicks in.

 

[k_sheep]

So most importantly ... who was the lucky SYD participant who got to represent my snotty self?? And did you eat extra dessert as ordered?!
