Gillard's only chance!
AWU Secretary Paul Howse recently assured Julia Gillard: "We've got ya back!", which is a tad ironic considering he was allegedly one of the so-called faceless men that stabbed Kevin Rudd in the back, in favour of annointing Ms Gillard into the Leadership role of Prime Minister. Gillard's popularity with the Australian electorate is now so low, I think, Gillard's only hope of winning would be to get a ride on Black Caviar! Continued on the Blog page...

Airport baggage holding pattern
A couple flying from Mildura to Newcastle via Melbourne ended up marooned in Tullamarine with their baggage. Their connecting Jetstar flight to Newcastle wasn't departing until 4 hours later. The couple tried to check their baggage in with Jetstar early so that they wouldn't have to lug it around the airport but Jetstar check-in policy would not allow them to do so before two hours prior to their flight time.
Their inconvenience was exacerbated because they had tried to use the automated check-in kiosk. The kiosk machine had informed them that there was a problem with their check-in but no mention of the two-hour policy; hence much time was wasted and they ended up queuing for check-in three times!
