Seeing this thread has reminded me that I completely forgot to post the reports for my return journey LHR - SYD. (That's what happens when you land at 7am on Monday and go straight to work to find 1,200 unread emails and a note that the project you're working on is now due a week early).

Anyhow, I've updated the LHR - BKK section, although details are a bit sketchy as the flight was a month ago! I will post BKK - SYD later in the week.

After much deliberation, honey and general muttering &c in the woods, The Bears have no nominations other than those already mentioned. They are conscious that this is a nomination exercise, and not about "We think [insert username here] is wonderful" or anything like that.

No preference is therefore expressed ... they defer to the Judges. Simples.

ps. thanks for your help so far with the honeymoon planning !

The other vote goes for BBB for this one:

Brilliant piece of writing, and BBB's facebook version of his trip in my opinion is all the better thanks to me being off sick and taking screen grabs of the BA babybus between LCY & SNN

A rules question:

Must the trip report reside on FT, or can it be on a different web site?

Good question. I think it would be reasonable to limit our nominations to reports posted on FT, so that excludes links posted on FT to third party sites/blogs etc.

How about reports posted on FT but they reside on another web site?

I'm considering nominating JAXBA

Does that count as a nomination for one of my 2011 trip reports, just because you mentioned my name?
