Miss PA :ok:

Im waking up in 11.5 hours (4am) to head off to work (a cruisy 3 sector 11hr day), then im hitting the town (well island) for a night of all that great naughty stuff we flight attendants tend to do on overnights (like reading books, discussing politics, and talking of merry times past! :E :E :E :} ). mmmmm cocktails

My evening was spent dancing my socks off with my best friends, perfect end to a perfect day!!

Happy New Year PPruners!

For Indian new year (i.e. 5 and a half hours ahead of the UK) I was in the hotel bar of our very posh hotel in Delhi with the 3 other English crew members on my flight)...

UK new year was 5.30am in Delhi. Trying hard to get some sleep before checking out at 10am!

I was working but had full views of Sydney Harbour - so, not a complete washout! Anyone know how long the glitterball is supposed to be lit for on the Bridge?

I signed on "tired" for an Airport Reserve in the morning of NYD. I was delighted to find the PERFECT duty for me on my line... operate SYD MEL, pax home.

Hardest day of work ive ever done!

Happy New Year everyone


:D :D

I heard the Sydney Harbour Bridge glitter ball came at at cost of $2 million!!! Sheeeesh!!!

In hindsight (what a lovely thing) I am sure those costs could have gone to the other side of the world? :confused:

Love Miss PA xxx ;)

Hi Miss Pam Ann,

The Sydney mayor decided to go ahead with the celebrations as they were already payed for. Fund raising was held throughout the city so all the revellers could participate.

So far the Australian public has donated $110 million and the Australian government $1 billion in aid. I'm sure they could have used the money from NYE too but it was probably allocated and paid for well before the horrible events of 26th December.

Cheers,
Iguanahead

For those who haven't seen the glitter ball here's a pic.

What a great photo Mr Iguanahead!

You are right....I guess that payments were already taken care of prior to the event.

What a fantastic effort Australia....keep in coming! :ok: :ok: :ok:

Luv Miss Pam Ann xxx ;)
