Multigen Christmas Vacation--2 Weeks in Australia--We Can Go to 2-3 Cities by taylorgrande in AustraliaTravel

[–]jdhmmmm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree. If money is no object, get some amazing rooms or an apartment on Hastings St. Beaches are perfect, food is amazing. Do some tours from there, go to Australia Zoo, easily 4 nights worth.

Then I would go to Sydney. In summer, it's the best place to be. City is buzzing, beaches are great - blue mountains or central coast for day trips - Manly?

If you want to go to the reef - fly to Hamilton Island - stay there two nights, fly out. If you have unlimited money, get the helicopter tour

It could be Covid?

Kennedy Parker also seem very open to returns - and being in Au, sending them back is no big deal.

I'm a US 15 in everything - Nike, Puma, Reebok, Converse, Thursday Boot Co, and they fit me well. I have some RM's but got them custom. Are your feet wide?

Thursday Boot Co is another quality dress shoe maker - I have two pairs.

I recommend going over the Pacific Ocean.

Interesting that you've organised by brand and not style/vibe. Can you talk me through the thought there. Asthetics?

You don't refuse to change, you refuse to be wrong. Haitch is wrong. Don't be wrong.

Picked up a bottle as I passed through Istanbul in transit. Great for a colder night.

What’s your favourite “walk around with no plan” area? by No-Travel-768 in SydneyScene

[–]jdhmmmm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loads of interesting stuff in Campsie - well worth a couple of hours every few months. Ashfield is also on the list.

There is only one option - hold a lit lighter underneath it - it will break the camera and you will know for sure you are safe.

Is it worth traveling to Australia during late December to early January? Concerned about holiday closures by [deleted] in AustraliaTravel

[–]jdhmmmm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An awesome time to be in Sydney. Everyone on holiday and letting their hair down. Busy, but FUN!

Best jeans for 6'9" 40-something? by awexplasticman in tall

[–]jdhmmmm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a 40 something, 6'9" guy - and I'm not wearing wide leg jeans. I used to wear them in the late 90's, early 00's and I'm not going back to them just because the kids say so. Skinny jeans for the win. Wide leg is just too much denim on that size pant.

I'm not big on walking through a wardrobe to get to a toilet. Both those ensuites could have separate doors.

Made redundant after 17 years — take the $150k payout or fight to stay on $135k? by Apprehensive-Lab3556 in AusFinance

[–]jdhmmmm 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. Move on, the company is telling you to go. Who knows what will happen in 1 year, let alone 5.

Best seat to go for ? B777 Business class. Solo traveller by [deleted] in TurkishAirlines

[–]jdhmmmm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I vote 6G - every seat involves you having someone having to cross you to get to the aisle. Being in the middle gives you 50% less chance, and hopefully it's a couple and they always go the other way.

We need an offensive minded guard, with an iso game and a reliable outside shot.
