A couple from Melbourne...




Flinders Street platform - the front foyer is having some work done which is a pity, as it's quite a building...



Had a bit of a shock last night, needed to change the last sector of my trip and BA wanted to charge me £8k as a fare change. They then said I could downgrade to CW if I paid them £4k. In the end I involved the twitter team and got it changed for £60 + €300 change fee.

Fantastic Melbourne photos - just booked a GUV2 trip CW to F for next year so looking forward to going back! How long were your exposures for those photos?

Good result from Twitter team intervention!!

especially as the Gold line were insistent that the £8k quote was accurate and correct.

Can’t fault Propeller at all. They had alternative flights lined up. They declined my offer of paying them a service fee even though I had got it sorted out myself.


Will check the exposure times for you.
