5000 budget tickets axed as fuel costs soar

FIVE thousand Jetstar passengers are being told their budget-priced holidays to Malaysia are off. The airline blames skyrocketing fuel prices for cancelling the heavily promoted, three-times-a-week Sydney to Kuala Lumpur service. Staff are telephoning 5000 passengers who have booked for travel after the September cut-off date. Many had taken up the $50 fare offer, which, with taxes, amounted to about $500 - about half the usual fare. More Here

Early Morning

Good morning people! Nothing much happened today just that we had roast chicken again last night with heaps of vege and 1/2 cooked potatotes. Tried to bake them for 20 minutes but I guess the trick is still to boil them before putting them into the oven. A reminder that you should always have your chicken half cooked as well before baking them. :P We're gonna have sausages and meat pies again for dinner tonight before we fly off to Melbourne next week. Planning to watch Batman in Melbourne on Imax perhaps? Wonder how much will that cost now. Settling down quite well here in Sydney. Making the house cosy each and every time and just moving things around to make life a little less colder. Temperature hitting a low of 7 deg c now in Sydney and Melbourne is snowing I think. Hopefully my cutie can take the cold in Melbourne. Attending a graduation is just so much fun but whats even more exciting is just to visit the Dandenongs where Kenny lives. No not Kenny from South Park! :P

Drinkers face loss of boss tossing

POPULAR alcohol promotions such as "toss the boss" and "free drinks for women" and even serving spirits in shot glasses could be banned at individual pubs and clubs under new powers designed to crack down on excessive drinking. Draft guidelines from the Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing grant the director of liquor and gaming, Albert Gardner, the right to order venues to stop promotions and activities seen as likely to encourage bingeing. Licensees who failed to do so would be prosecuted and fined up to $5500. http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/drinkers-face-loss-of-boss-tossing/2008/07/08/1215282835393.html

Migrating isn't as bad as I thought it was and certainly my overdue payment with Telstra didn't make a difference for it. Thought I heard they were filling up quota's but still unsure as mine took an average of 8 months to complete and I have heard of other which got approval in a lesser amount of time. Oh wells nothing much to grumble about I guess coz everything is stablized in some sorta way. Almost a month back today was the day that I landed here in the Sydney International Airport waiting patiently as I get cleared as customs. My baby waits for me patiently outside at the arrival lounge. What a long journey I have taken. I never expected myself to return back to australia so soon actually. So much has changed, oh wait the whole city has changed, yeahs its not melbourne (dohs). Following weeks were spent going for interviews and meeting up head hunters around the city. Have only met 2 actually, one in the city and another in woolloomooloo which is a little out of town ...

Made from superior tampered glass to withhold the 1,500 crowd that visited the store on its opening day.

Sydney Mac Opening

The very first Apple store opening day in Sydney Australia. It was located on George St and there was an expected 1500 people who lined up outside the store to be the first to get a glimpse of the 3 storey huge Apple store built with glass walls, and oh they get a free-tee-shirt too.
