The engineer never made it - his flight went tech too. So we are waitting for a new aircraft - and crew - from PER to take us to SYD.

2 hours in and we get an A$8 food voucher.

3 hours in and the QP runs out of all alcohol & food. We are told that no more will be delivered due to "licencing restrictions".

3 hours 30 later the public bar downstairs runs out of lemons for the Corona.

4 hours (6pm) in and we are told we will get a hot dinner.

4 hours 30 later the public bar downstairs runs out of white wine and XXXX.

5 hours later 50 Eagle Boys pizzas are delievered - and are taken through Xray.

5 hours and 10 minutes later we're told we won't get dinner until the PER flight leaves so they don't scoff it - and the PER flight is late.

6 hours later (8pm) we get our cold pizza. The QP now looks like there's been a MAJOR party, with bottles, cans, and pizza boxes everywhere.

6 hours 30 later the public bar downstairs runs out of red wine and Crown. VB is still available.

7 hours later (9pm) we get a letter telling us that our fright is now scheduled for midnight. Blankets are handed out for those in the QP. I leave for the Kimberly Klub, and a quiet Corona. WITH lemon..

More, I'm sure, anon.
