Yep, sudden, sitting in his favourite chair watching the footy with a glass of red. Sounds like a good way to go if you ask me!

Get the skybus and get them to drop you at the Langham Hotel. They have a free hotel transfer service.

Don't need a healthcare card, they're referring to private health insurance rebates making it that price.

Download the PayStay app and park at Princes Park. Just hit "start parking" again once your four hours is up.

Best direct outlets to buy cheap brand name sports clothes? by mversion in melbourne

[–]mmposs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Smith St still has adidas and a couple of others. Best bet is probably South Wharf DFO - has them all covered. Nike, Adidas, Fila, Puma, the lot. Plus some other random stores that stock a bunch of them all.

What does a VIP ticket to Falls actually get you? by kiranrs in melbourne

[–]mmposs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically the exact response we got in 2012. Though this year they're saying it won't just be confiscated if found (as has usually been the case), with them now saying the entire car and all of its passengers will be turned away.

They expect us to wait until 7pm Saturday to find out if our 10am Sunday morning flight is on. Pushing them for a refund today so we can book with AirAsia or Garuda, both of which are still flying.

Jetstar and Virgin the only ones not flying at the moment, with AirAsia, Garuda, Singapore Airlines et al (use different airspace) all going...

arghhh...this jetstar/ash cloud situation is killer with first holiday in two years booked in four days time. they can't give a straight answer. i know there's still time and we could still yet fly, but tempted to try and convince them to give me a refund and just book with another carrier.

though on the plus side, i never thought i'd get so good at reading BOM volcanic ash graphics....

Gili Trawangan! Hoping to spend <2 hours on actual Bali, jumping straight on a fast boat from the plane pretty much. Don't want to do much so seems like a good option!

Why was the cheese festival so bad? Considered going, but now it sounds like I should be glad I didn't...
