The General Chat Thread (2024)?

That looks lovely.

I like reading trip advisor reviews because some are funny, some silly and some downright petty so don't always pay much attention to be fair. As long as you like it and are happy that is all that matters.

You do have to pick your way through the petty and ridiculous stuff don't you.
I enjoy the establishments response most.
Especially the ones when they've done backflips to accommodate difficult customers and they've still left them a bad review because the breakfast bacon was back bacon and they prefer streaky

So the management who don't normally engage layout precisely what they did to accommodate and how difficult the reviewer was. Those make me smile, they didn't take it lying down!

Tomorrow morning (8am ish maybe) will be 8 years to the day since we landed in a cold but very sunny Canberra.

This was the first photo I took in Canberra, or even in Australia. Nothing desperately exciting!

Yay! We just booked our second visit to the Michelin starred restaurant we went to last year : Parkheuvel -
We're going on December 21st, just like last year
