Re: Hello All

Meg I attempted to private message you but was disallowed. I have also attempted to message support several times but have been IGNORED. The crux of my complaint is that since registering two days ago I have gone from ACTIVATED member to GUEST.. back and forth.. logged in one minute inexplicably locked out the next. This is MOST frustrating.

Re: Hello All

Cricket..the Test variety.. David. I'd prefer to watch my grass grow than watch Rugby.. too stop/start.. far too many rules and therefor penalties. I have been a devotee of the famous St George Rugby League club for more than 50 years. Since their glory days I have been a glutton for punishment.

What about you a soccer (football) man or perhaps league or rugger?

Dream on my friend. We are waiting. With this new Dreamliner it is only 16 flying hours to the west coast of Oz. When I visited UK/Europe back in 80s we had to endure something like 30 hours flying time.

HI again Swannie. I remember the days when the trans Pacific QANTAS flight was broken by a nice little pit stop in Honolulu and a leisurely arrival in San Francisco. Now it's a non stop 14 hour drudge Sydney - LA. My first Sydney - London flight was Sydney - Singapore - Bahrain - Vienna - Amsterdam - London. That was great. I don't mind flying but I don't like being in the air non stop for a day and a half. Do you travel OS often?..Notwithstanding the present situation of course.

My last overseas holiday was to Thailand and Philippines about four years back. I also took that Sydney to London route.. stopovers are hours sitting in airport waiting rooms.. no thanks. Never been to the States. Probably never will now.
