Sod the stress of it all, that can be offset by feelin knackered all the time and drinking as much as your body can possibly take.

EMOTIONS, that is it, it is emotionally draining, do not know why, but all who have gone know what i mean, all that have yet to be days away from flying, be ready!

Forget you clothes, your weight restrictions will be exceeded for your need of these;

Oh for gods sake man, you're only shifting your entire life to the other side of the world, giving up everything you know backwards, turning to a life where you know nothing and no one and starting all over again with no idea what will happen.

God, men do fuss!

Good luck Keith, open mind, relax and go with the flow. Oh and don't forget to get off the plane, get to the nearest beach and have a beer. Everything else will happen after that.

Where in QLD? we are heading to Sunshine Coast!

I've had some great drinks on the flights to oz over the years - one BA flight when I was 19 - I was pressing the button every 20 mins for a drink. Then when people were sleeping I was still drinking as cannot sleep on there.

A trolley dolley came to my seat and when I ordered another drink she said I had to come with her!!?? I thought that's it no more drink for me!!!

So she marched me to rear of plane and opened the curtain to the galley where all the others were sat drinking coffee, eating and one was brushing anothers hair!!?? SO I thought eye eye, mile high club here I come!!!

But the trolley dolly then pointed to the galley drawers and said to me "right the whiskey is in that one and the ginger ale in that one! Stand there like a good boy and help yourself coz we're on a break!"

It was great, stood there for an hour chatting the old girls up and drinking, I got VIP service for the rest of the flight as I was now their new mate but back fired as they rushed me a last minute coffee before landing and ended up spilling it on my pants!!!??? But then gave me a gift vouchure which more than covered the cost of the dry clean!!

Happy memories!

know what you mean, I hit 40 in Dec but still act like the 19 on that first flight to Oz!

We looked at GC and Southport last recky trip (as I worked in Sydney on prior trips) but there was something about the Sunshine Coast and loads of land being released so as a builder that suits me for work!

I spent my first new years eve on that trip in Surfers Paradise and had a top week up there, can't beat abit of Vegas/Blackpool style fun!
