Ooooh. I just was checking my points total to see about some Christmas flights and there's something strange about my QFF page.

It appears to have taken on a strange sheen in a different metallic colour.... :D

So, when will the first London AFF Do be? ;)

This definitely means I'm a scratching for AFF#4, now to try and find someone to take my hotel room... NB. I'm happy to take any offer for it.
 
This morning my father passed away.Not a tragedy as he was 90 and his last year was very hard for him.
However he is someone whose work has probably been noticeable to many on this board.He worked for the Commonwealth Dept of Works.He was in charge of the building of the International terminal and runway extension at Kingsford Smith as well as consulting on Tullamarine.The Sydney project was brought in under budget and ahead of time-not bad for a Government project.
He supervised the building and redevelopement of many army and air force bases.
Also was the architect for the redevelopment of Concord hospital in Sydney.
And during WW2 was responsible for the development of many Flaming Furies and Deep Pits in the NT.

When I asked earlier why are people selfish and considerate earlier I should have also added rude and disgusting.

I was sitting in the BNE QF business lounge a few minutes ago having a snack and a drink when this guy come down to sit at the long table waiting for some more food to be put out as the last lot was taken away. When the food arrived he walked over to the butter chicken and rice and lifted the flirst plate in the stack with his grubby hands and then took the second plate leaving the first plate back in the stack.

How gross! Creep and @coughh... were the only words that come mind.

Note to self: get yellow QUARANTINE tape.

Next time that happens I'll gladly mummify him with a roll full.

Honestly, that is disgusting. Please tell me - touch wood - if he happened to spread some disease then there would be some law holding him accountable for his actions?

Totally disgusting, selfish, inconsiderate and rude. I don't know about being held accountable for their actions but I cannot believe these type of people exist.

Anyway I have said enough on how I felt and I have nothing further to add. Hopefully he is just part of a small minority.
 
I was not impressed with C10's episode of Rush tonight...

Apart from the poor effort in creating a CG plane (that you would have seen on the adds for the last couple of weeks), the landing was boring, but a Go-around would have been much more exciting.

Yes tonight was a pretty quiet Friday:oops:
