Haystacks flight out of Newcastle delayed by 90 minutes, due for arrival into Brisbane at 10:00am so we should be there around 11:30am

Depending on how we are travelling, we might need to move his group back.

KJ, Jono and virge are running an hour late too. If anyone has ferrin's number, please let him know and pass on one of their numbers.

If anyone ends up really late I am heading up this evening.

Wonder if it is worth calling the hotel to see if there are any last minute cancellations, guess it wouldn't be at the ozgolf rate though.

He posted in the bus thread so he must know of our delay.

I emailed Krystle mate but you may as well call. If not, rollaway might be your next best option.

Grunt might new lucky he isn't coming this year. He probably wouldn't be able to lift his arm after everyone finished punching him in his shoulder!

Inbound plane was held up in Sydney apparently. Got in the door an hour ago and for some stupid reason I'm posting here instead of catching up on shut eye. :roll:

...and just to **** me over once more, got on the aircraft at Brisbane a 6.15pm, got off the aircraft at Brisbane at 6.45pm! Get on a bus, drive 30 metres, get off bus and get on another aircraft. Finally get back to Newy at 10.15pm only to find no ****ing taxis!:smt093

Finally got home at about 11.45pm. Thankfully I had the foresight to take today off...how are you travelling KJ?

Just got home now. Passenger floor of the car cannot be seen under soft-drink bottles, pie foils, chip bags, chocolate wrappers and coffee cups.

On the upside, the main client doesn't know that I was away for 5 nights. Thank you Mr Laptop and Mr Hotel WiFi.

I left brisvegas today to fly to tassie and when I got to the airport discovered I didn't get my requested aisle seat. Had a rant about it but still didnt get one. I asked them what is the point of me paying for the Q club/FF etc and having a profile that specifies an aisle seat?

I know it is all my fault, all because I choose to spend my days off not working. Sorry guys.
