  1. Enjoy they are the best! Also you must have scones with strawberry jam and clotted cream. A foodies heaven.
  2. Congratulations. Sounds like the best of both worlds for you and your employer.
  3. Steak pies with mushy pies added under the lid, not included in the pie.
  4. That was an impressive list of pies competing for Australia's Best Pie. Lucky Australia is a nation of pie lovers. Couldn't see how the mushroom pie was the best pie. Mushroom and meat pies are my third favourite pies. Steak and mushy pies are my favourite, with steak and kidney second. But Cornish Pastries are my favourite.
  5. How wonderful that your mother is 96 living in her own home only about 3 minutes away from you. Good that she can still drive locally too.
  6. I would ask the car hire company. I know there is a car hire company in the CBD. Car hire is limited in Hobart because there are less hire cars since Covid.
  7. Your mother's passing is a blessing at the end but still sad nevertheless as you say. Hope you are comforted by memories of happier family times, Leigh. Does your Dad still live in the family home?
  8. Maybe they are getting ready for the millenniums who are coming!
  9. I seem to remember you could bring on a bottle of wine in ports, but you may have had to go on a wine tour.
  10. How frustrating when you are on holidays! I hope you are enjoying your cruise.
  11. I can imagine the poor wines on offer must be disappointing to wine drinkers. Would it be better to not pay extra for a wine package and buy a bottle of your favourite wine, which they keep for you to serve each night?
  12. Census data provides useful statistics for cruise lines on future cruising. Millennial generation is overtaking the baby boomers. Australia has become a majority migrant nation with more than 50% of residents born overseas or have an immigrant parent.
  13. Hurtigruten are currently offering no single supplements on select departures to Antarctica, Svalbard and Norway. Good time for solo travel.
