I intend to catch an airtrain from the city at around 2:30pm.

I didn't realise it was on that late.

I shall see if I can get a game of golf at Victoria Park in the morning members comp as an interstate visitor with a Golflink card....

Of course the definition of "a few showers" may need slight different interpretation when you come north of the border

Looks like I'll miss you both in SYD, unless you were keen to be around at an ungodly hour (0835 flight).

Wish I'd booked this later flight.

(I'll be the desperado balancing a netbook on a black TravelPro laptop bag with the FT tag, opposite the QP

)

I'm on JQ487 also. Might be able to share a cab in to Hamilton or Broadmeadow if the flight actually operates.

After resolving the chaos some family medical issues created, I have postponed the Japan trip but will be connecting as follows:

21 Feb PER 0015 SYD 0625 QF 568
21 Feb SYD 0835 BNE 0905 QF 510
21 Feb BNE 1925 PER 2345 QF 767

So BiziBB will hopefully find me in one of the SYD lounges (whichever my shiny new black AA card will get me into) and we can slowly wander over to Brekkie Creek.

Apologies if I nod off during the AGM
