That's my plan...lock in a (??reasonable) cancellable flexible rate, and wait for a sale and rebook...

It's quite funny how the +1s seem to all stick together and discuss 'other' things

Mr Fifa is now addicted to OzFest and I don't think there's any way I would be able to sneak away on my own. But it is much more enjoyable sharing J with someone else ^

Of course London isn't quite as difficult to organize as the annual Oz Fests, which I hope to attend some time as I hear great things every year about them.

Cheers.

As noted in post #3, I will do my best to attend, as I've never been to Perth.

Name Tags

If you have had a correct name tag previously I will use the same details. If not, please let me know.

Any other requests, such as larger font sizes will be considered if made early enough.

If a +1 get's a handle, does that mean they lose the +1 moniker?

In any case, To Market To Market certainly relates to the +1's of OZfest.

... and of course there's the annual SIN Do in January during MLK weekend ... 10th was this year and 11th for 2013 is underway (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/commu...singapore.html).

No. Mr Falconea has his own handle but he's definitely still a +1.

Of course, his handle has that built in!

Oddly, the +1s seem to particularly like Mr Falconea's little diaries of the OzFests - we had kpc gf and perthite+1 in particular tell us how much they liked them.

(He's working on this year's edition still.)

I'm amazed that your +1s attitude to travel is completely the opposite to yours
