Re: How has the Coronavirus Pandemic affected You?

South-eastern Australia: Went to the shops today, first time in a week after commuting to work only for the past week, which is the ordinary routine anyhow - for now. I was pleasantly surprised with my experience. Traffic and people was about half the usual. Everything was still open for business. E...

Re: How has the Coronavirus Pandemic affected You?

I’ll just be brief for now, as I’ll probably have an update during or post weekend. Still required to commute to work. Buying grocery supplies has been a problem, but I haven’t ventured out to any shops now for nearly a week - I’ve been too busy at work, but yes, I am very grateful I still have a jo...

Re: Your 2020 Booked/Flown Flights

Cancelled next trip due to the pandemic. At least my decision to travel or not became a lot clearer this week. Parts of the sectors would likely have been cancelled on me anyway. Thankfully I was there 3 months ago - and this was a discretionary trip. Still doesn’t make the process any easier. Tough...

Re: Tiny Things That Drive You Insane

Daylight saving. It starts too late, and ends way too late. We’re currently first weekend in October and first weekend in April in some states in Australia. The end part has been messed about with. Used to be early March, then late March, now its April. This clock interference has been a bone of con...

Re: Australian Aviation Thread - March 2020

Qantas at least aren't allowing you to rebook online if your flight has been cancelled and you aren't happy with the reaccommodation option provided. Hi, I have a question about a Domestic booking and I can move it to another forum if appropriate, but may get a quicker answer and resolution here. I...

Re: Eurus Australis: one afternoon of travelling across South-Eastern Australia during that summer of 2019-20

It was not my intention to do a report on these short routine trips. However, amid a season of unprecedented weather, and my first go-around in a commercial airliner, I felt the need to share my thoughts. This is also why I haven’t got a lot of photos for a trip report, by my own standards. The amo...

What triggers that memory with you, the first time you smelt it and nothing else can copy it.

The double standard - do as I say not as I do. :expressionless: When someone puts up a YouTube video like an old comedy or movie that is very rare to source elsewhere - and then it gets taken down. I would rather not have known it was available on YouTube, then I would be spared the disappointment w...

A listener to UK radio rang the radio station to say he went to the supermarket just before it opened to get some shopping this morning. He said there were 500 people at the entrance doors. Once the doors were opened there was a mad rush to the toilet paper shelves - but no toilet paper! Is this a ...

People not using their headlamps when it rains. Same at dawn and dusk, especially when they’re driving a black car. This seems to be happening more frequently nowadays - very concerning. People who slurp their drinks very loudly. Gulping of the same. I really hate littering. People just don’t care ...

The DC-10 in particular, and it’s role saving lives and property, I like it. They are using CBR as a stop, not sure what facilities there are there for fire...
