Yeah, they don't set it up until people arrive. Makes sense to me with such a low traffic footprint (it's eerie though being there by yourself!)

I was quite comfortable being the only one left in the Syd CL ;)

I have to say that's the best kind of "eerie" around.

Happy to be stuck there again QF ;)

Well I lasted one day with my new job - because I got the job I was really after! Better job, because it combines my best strengths, business development and tender writing, and much better pay. No car, so off to get a Mazda 3.


But the real killer came next. I know the CEO, who was the sole interviewer. She knows me and my reputation, and told me she wanted me to start ASAP. In the spirit of openness I told her I had an overseas holiday booked. "Fine" she said. "Six weeks" I said. She rolled her eyes, but said "I'll make it work". Off to Europe in March in the Emirates J and F cabins. Which is quite a relief as I would have lost quite a bit if I cancelled pre-paid tours at such a late stage


I probably should sacrifice a small animal to a deity of some sort......

A Mazda 3 seems good value, and the partner of one of my sons works in marketing for Mazda, but I'm not wedded to it. Anyone know anything about novated leases?
 
I'm glad I have some time off at the moment, can't believe how much there is to do when moving into a new place. Finally exchanged contracts and have a completion date. Things take so long over in the UK, the process here is really different to Australia.
 
Is that in East London?

Loved the flight attendant video. I need to get out more as I did not recognize that fellow.
 
This is on topic. But the bulk buy airport link tickets are now the same cost as purchasing from city rail. Price has also gone up to $15.90. Bulk buy from airport link for 10 tickets is $159. FYI.

Only benefit of bulk buy is time saved at the station now.

I think we'll see you on a Flounge run sometime in the future JohnK, and you will be flying JQ.

:shock: Really? Clairvoyant now? ;)

By the way were we the first to come up with FLounge run concept with QF74/QF73 many years ago? I wish those tag flights were still operating....
