Me still not knowing what being whammed is so I can't get done in by it

So this is actually moreso due to the side of the road the UK drives on vs most of the EU, the beam patterning for a lot of headlights, both LED and non-led point to the left of the road which is obviously an issue when driving on the continent

I looked at doing the direct flight, but it's generally easier and quicker for me to take Emirates going GLA>DXB>PER than dealing with Heathrow

Also god Singapore is so good, haven't been in ages

Oh hell yeah, the flight is pretty brutal though that's for sure, been back to Aus a few times since I moved and it never gets easier (and I'm going to Perth, not the east coast)

Make sure to have noise cancelling headphones makes it so much easier

Because they can charge that much, it's wildly expensive as is

Also yup doing NFC!

I was curious and went and checked it against my UK passport and it is very slightly bigger!

also yes it's insanely expensive

My UK passport done while in Australia £90 ($182)

Aussie one is $412 (£203) basic or $855 (£422) if done overseas, which I need to pay as it expired today...

May I present to you next week here

In saying that temps we are getting here would be unbearable in an Aussie house imo

Not a bad shout, London is very good to visit and decent to get around, plus getting a train to Paris is only like 2hr30

I personally can't say i'm a big fan of Paris (tho fuk the food is really good), however i went before they held the Olympics and they have apparenty cleaned it right up

Depends what you wanna see, I’m more bias towards scenery rather than cities and Norway (around Bergen) was stunning, in saying that Rome and Venice, as touristy as they are defo some of my favourite cities I’ve visited

Good thing is Europe is small and flights are cheap, you can see a lot
