Hey guys, just got back from the massive Sydney-Christchurch leg. It's really taxing on your body, especially as I just came back from a Melbourne-Singapore which was hard yakka. Some things of note -

  • Had the best time in Christchurch. A lot of the crew went out for dinner at this place called the Tap Room. It was obvioulsly peak hour, as we had to wait 30min for a table, and then foudn out that they ran out of stone grills. (They had only 3, we wanted 4). I gave mine up to the captain, because I was the only one there who'd been there before. But we got 2 free pizzas, 2 free desserts and half price coffees, so yeah, I didn't complain. I was also the girl who ate the most, 3 colas, lamb cutlets, tiramisu and a Liquor coffee. The guys we kinda shocked that I wasn't eating vegie soup and salad. Hmmm
  • We had the most crazy SFS on our flight. She sent a girl who was more senior than me back to training college for service training. Who the hell does that???
  • Because she was crazy and the service was slow, we had to have a debrief in the Sydney hotel in full uniform for 45min. I then had to cancel dinner with Tim ;-(
  • Some woman said the 2 magic words after pushback on the CHC-SYD leg. "Heart Attack". We had about 9 ambos look at her, only to diagnose that she was having a panic attack instead and was scared of flying. We offered to have someone sit next to her, to give her eyeshades, to get her off the plane. But she told us to go away. Now why would you make such a big deal and not want any help? 200 passengers probably missed connections because of her.
  • When I was in Sydney I tried Krispy Kreme doughnuts for the very first time. I think I've had about 15 in the past week. So yeah I'm gonna fail my weigh-in at SEP next week.

  • I have 3 days of bliss before Ash and her boyfriend arrive. I'm gonna enjoy it while it lasts.

My next flight is to Athens, which is looking to be a tad chili if weather.com is anything to go by. I have so much Xmas shopping to do... If only more people had an Amazon wish list it would make life so much easier. He he.
