This may be a really left field suggestion. I had been doing speculative searches on flight aggregator sites for flights to PSP for the April weekend (in the forlorn hope that borders will be open and I can go there), and on the Qantas site. Nothing worth considering. Amex travel on line came up with much better options, although you need to have access to it. I haven't booked anything as I don't know if the border will be open.

The Α has already passed, the Ω is yet to come. I hope the Δ is done by then.

People who have been in or transited the US (and several other countries) in the previous 21 days cannot enter Hong Kong.

I just can't wait... ... to sit in Canberra and read all the accounts of the fun you guys are having. Then again, maybe I will be able to make it, but I'm not booking just yet.

I think there is something in that (or it's in there somewhere when one puts on a little weight - extra mass, I should have said), but if it is so, I'm not sure what the conversions factor is. And what are these 'pounds' of which you speak. I should conduct an experiment to see what the rate is between inches and kilograms. It may take rather more time than I have to devote to in.

Leaving aside the minor point that 'democracy' and 'South Vietnam' were in no way related.

One more reason to visit the UK, when I can!

Well, the next variant probably won't be Delta, this guy seems to be very hard to catch.

Happy birthday @Daverwr and @purplekow!

@IronMausis a nice guy!

An oldie but a goodie!

Given recent casting decisions in Dr Who, it can't be too long.

Yep, I received the same e-mail. I'll be double-vaxxed by the time I can travel to the US and from what Qantas is saying I'll have to have the IATA vaccine app to travel. I will also have my Medicare app certification but I'm not sure a foreign certification would be enough. Perhaps the paper Australian Government vaccination card will carry more weight!

Yes, San Jose is where I met him at his home. He certainly seems to be quite the energiser bunny with his various pursuits of late.

The Sunday morning sports panel discussion program on the ABC here often features a snippet of something inspiring or quirky at the end of the show. Last Sunday this was it with images of players walking through a cornfield. MLB succeeded in getting international attention, at least in this one little corner of the world.

I reported a post a few minutes ago that appeared to miss the point of this site, and it's now gone. I suspect that is what caught your attention.

Bon anniversaire to you both.

As I said, I miss @quoththeraven but I also value the contributions made by that salty broad, @tyro and everyone's favourite feline @FreshFluff.

I miss her greatly.

I'd like to hire him, but I note his current rates, so that may reduce the possibility that a meeting would happen. Doesn't mean I don't still want to meet him!

As Arthur Dent, you'll possibly develop a cult following. I just hope your home planet isn't demolished for some bypass.

I've always wanted to be an outlier! On a serious note, I've always found that Australian escorts are rarely discussed unless an estadounidense client has been here or the escort has travelled to North America. So same issue that @sjmuktophas faced. One Aussie who I had my eye on was discussed here from time to time, https://rent.men/JakeXL (he's varied his name on that theme), although he travelled frequently to the UK so that may have been what prompted the interest in here. He's been in the UK for the duration of the current unfortunate situation, so I haven't had the chance to try him for size (and I use the term advisedly!).

Yay, we have a full-time birthday monitor!! Bon anniversaire to our lucky duo!

This afternoon in an interview about the IPCC report, the Liberal (i.e. right wing) NSW Minister for Energy and Environment was asked whether his green tie signified something about his environmental credentials. Of course I immediately thought of @Charlie's comment that I had read yesterday. (For the record, Matt Kean who is 39, seems not to have a partner, although he had a girlfriend in the past.)
