Pretty Jetstar FA on Hotseat now. Lost interest when she revealed she was married.

Thanks for that...I'll watch it in an hour

Ask him if his bags from QF2 have arrived yet, the good old baggage carousel is an equaliser when it comes to people!

The baggage handlers have to get some enjoyment from their work.

But thanks for your well-wishes for op-ups.

Cheers! Unfortunately (well, fortunately really...) all my flights booked so far are in the top cabin so nowhere to go but the pilot's seat :mrgreen:

I dare you to get a photo of yourself (or your wife!) in a pilots seat on this journey. Should be possible seeing you're top cabin all flights.

So I'm now the proud possessor of dual nationality. I have an EU passport (Netherlands).

Anyone able to offer advice when travelling with two passports? I'd planned on using it going in to UK/Europe and again when leaving, as well as signing up for Privium (Schipol's expedited program) which is a member of FLUX which allows me to obtain USA's Global Entry (and the Netherlands is the same as Australia in regards to the VWP). I really dislike US immigration queues

Any other "gotchas" I should be aware of?

My father (who was instrumental in making the application possible) jokingly said to me "I've never seen someone so keen to become a Dutchman!" Heh.

Pics or it didn't happen. :mrgreen:

There will be pics-and lots of them!

But today's tip.If you are self reliant,want to see new places without all the infrastructure and relatively untouched by tourism put Sao Tome and Principe on your bucket list-the Carribean before tourism.Tropical Island where European plantation owners used slaves from the African continent on sugar cane plantations and now cacao.An absolute delight.Children come up to you wanting their photo to be taken.Will find details of agents and will post in my TR when I finally get there.

The kid who ran into my car on Wednesday turned up at my place last night wearing a Panda outfit. :shock: I caught sight of the white fluffy tail as he left; it was a much-needed laugh after a shocker of a day.

I'm bamboozled as to why he'd be wearing a panda costume but he obviously couldn't bear the strain of having run into you…
No doubt you have all the facts so it's black and white.
I think I'll paws the pathetic panda puns for now…

I think it was one of those adult onsies; even had the panda head hood hanging at the back...other than that, I have no idea what possesses a person to go out in public dressed as a panda.

I reckon... a person like that is likely to be bamboo-zled.

He obviously ate, rooted (your car) and left.
