Well got dropped off by Juice t the airport (thanks mate). Confusion and chaos at the check in desk. Asked a spotty faced Qantas teenager where I queued for Melbourne, got told desks 14&15 - cheers mate! Turns out it was the International desks... Guess Qantas needs to teach their staff geography.....

Anyway finally check in and go through the humiliating ritual of the security gate, pants dangling round my knees as I waddle through the metal detector like some Guantanamo Bay detainee, ah the joys of air travel in the 21st century!

Glad to find that there is free wireless at the airport, oops spoke too soon, looks like u have to pay for it too. Shame I was looking forward to embarrassing the sweet octogenarian sitting to my left when checking my favourite midget porn website..

Anyway, looks like my plane hasn't arrived yet. Damn, should have got business class for this local leg too....

An hour later we finally take off, decent flight, reasonable food, huge gorilla sitting next to / on top of me. Really should have got that business class flight - a much better class of gorilla.
