Next people will be suggesting I change mine NM. Where can I find a QF and VA plane parked side-by-side :?:

Well, I suppose BNE Intl and I am there in 3 weeks :p.

Your daughter is still young enough to be an Elsa or Anna fan, so perhaps one of these may work for you?

In my case, I have been told its not cool to like Elsa and Anna, but Olaf is the cool one :)
Personally, I think I related to Sven the reindeer
 
The last 2 weeks have had a couple of delightful typos under Past Illnesses
-Mildly obese.BMI 54.3.
-surgery right Paella.
I am comfortable with mildly obese.

For my height 89kg is classed as obese. Between 79kg and 89kg is overweight. I was 81kg in 1990. I got sick ~5 years ago and got down to ~104kg and looked and felt great. I have no hope of getting anywhere near the recommended healthy weight range.

Why should you never give Elsa a balloon?

a. She will freeze it.
b. She will let it go
c. Both the above.

P.S. My 3 y.o. granddaughter who is living with us at present is still in thrall to "ElsaAnna", and it is generally played in full twice a week!

I have managed to bring my BMI down from 29 to 25 since Christmas - from Overweight to Healthy range. Don't give up hope. But it does take hard work and determination. This morning I walked 10.5km before breakfast. I am doing the 10,000 step walking challenge for the month of May, but have set my own goal to hit 15,000 steps minimum each day, and so far averaging over 18,000 steps per day, or half a million for the month. But that takes time - at least 2 hours a day. At least the Brisbane weather is nice at 6:30am at this time of the year.
 
When Star Wars originally came out, our son watched it so many times he could recite the movie word for word ! And I mean every word. :shock:

When we took our daughter to WDW recently, I was unable to book a FastPass+ for a meet&greet with Anna and Elsa. It was fully booked out for every day we were there, even trying to book FP+ right at 30 days out - people staying at Disney properties can book them 60 days out and had consumed all available FP+ for that "attraction". I thought she was going to be thoroughly disappointed. But then she explained that she was not interested in meeting them - "they are for young kids". But she was keen to meet Cinderella, Rapunzel, Ariel and Tinker Bell, all who were able to achieved with FP+ :). Unfortunately no opportunity to meet/greet Olaf - probably due to the 30 degree temps each day.
 
I also read that there was a case of golden staph or something similar in the hospital and that the relevant rooms were scrubbed prior to the expected arrive of the princess. Therefore my (totally uninformed) opinion is that she spent the bare minimum time required in hospital because the risk of incurable infection was too high to spend much longer there.

Never go to a hospital - even for a minor procedure. They are full of sick and infectious people. After giving birth, Kate (I refuse to call her Katherine) would be much better off at home with a full medical and nursing team on call, and plenty of people to give care to Charlotte. Just as well they didn't call her Alice. "After 24 years of living next door to Alice! Alice? WTF is Alice?"

Have to laugh... just received email from Qantas, which included voting for them in Skytrax Awards.
No matter what category you want to choose it ONLY default to Excellent (or equivalent of the highest praise)
Rigged??

Are you spending too much time in The Playground (eg like this thread) and not enough in the travel/flying related threads? My understanding is that this thread does not count!

That would be correct. Posts in the playground do not count.
