		<description><![CDATA[So, I went to Perth last weekend. The last time I flew there was almost 2 years ago. I&#8217;ve caught a lot of domestic flights (Virgin and Qantas) on the East Coast, but not coast to coast. I took Virgin from Canberra to Perth via Sydney. On the way back, I took Qantas direct flight from Perth to Canberra. Anyway.. Virgin, budget carrier, no expectation, but.. I was surprised when they fed us on the way to Sydney. Apparently flights between 4pm-7pm, to and from Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney are considered capital connect and that means we got complimentary beverages and snack. I haven&#8217;t taken these flights before as I usually took morning or lunch-time flights. I don&#8217;t usually drink alcohol so can&#8217;t comment on the wine but the snack we got was cheese crackers. It&#8217;s not one of those cheaply packed cheese and water crackers you can get from supermarket. It is actually very nice, very high quality gourmet cheddar cheese with some nice crackers too. The plane was delayed by one hour in Sydney, so my transit time was increased from 2 to 3 hours. Considering, I was recently delayed by 10 hours by Air Pacific/Qantas code share to Fiji in December, this is no biggie. The real surprise was when I board the flights to Perth. Virgin must have just refreshed their fleets. The Airbus A330 has brand-new leather seats, almost empty flights (so we can sprawl across 4 seats in the middle, if we want) and free movies. I also loved the disney-quality animated safety video Virgin has. This is the first time I actually watched safety video from start to finish. I haven&#8217;t done this since I was a child. The guy in that video looked like that dude from the Tangled movie. Here&#8217;s the video.. On the way back, Qantas use smaller plane. There&#8217;s no delay. The flight was also almost empty. There&#8217;s no free in-flight entertainment on-board&#8230; which is annoying for long flights. However the staff were quite attentive, and food and drinks were served on regular interval.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I saw this on SMH today.. Flower site wilts under complaint deluge Yesterday, my friend told me about the extremely disappointing service she received from Ready Flowers. Here&#8217;s the complaint letter she wrote to Ready Flowers that sum it all up. Date: Wed, Feb 15, 2012 at 7:27 AM Subject: COMPLAINT RE: &#8211; Order ID: 1001-262983 To: customer.service@readyflowers.com Hi, I am extremely disappointed and outraged with your service. After spending many hours searching for the right flowers to send to my Valentine (who happens to be very difficult to please with flowers), I stumbled upon your web-site and found what appeared to be the right fit and exactly what I was searching for the &#8220;Exuberant&#8221; flowers. I do not understand how so many errors could have occurred:- 1. I ordered the &#8220;Exuberant&#8221; flowers, clearly what was received was not this (see picture attached) NOT EVEN CLOSE 2. Having written the recipients name on the form, I do not understand why this was not put anywhere on the card, leaving her employers no other choice but to open it so the correct recipient could be identified. This is something that is personal and was not meant for the eyes of anyone else but the intended recipient 3. The vase ordered was the primer, clearly the one the flowers received in look nothing like as displayed on the web -site (False advertising) 4. The state of the flowers as can be clearly seen by the photos attached do not look fresh what so ever. I do understand, that Valentines is a busy time of the year for any florist, but this is no reason for any of the above to occur, at the very least in the event of the flowers being out of stock. I would have expected at the very least to receive a call and give me the opportunity to select something more appropriate or taken alternative options as I see fit. This is not something I will take lightly as you can imagine, I am very upset and outraged by this circus! I would ask as it only fair that ready flowers refunds my money.&#8221; To think that she&#8217;s actually one of the lucky ones&#8230; (or not, the flowers were semi-dead, ugly and definitely not what she ordered). She  tried calling them several times. At one stage, she was on the queue &#8216;you were no 5 in our queue&#8217;.. and then at the end of the queue, there was an answering machine. WTF!!!! She has since contacted ACCC and Fair Trading to lodge a complaint. If you have bad experience with Ready Flowers, you are not alone. Just contact ACCC and Fair Trading&#8230; and make sure they don&#8217;t do this to anyone else. Can you imagine if wrong flowers are sent to funeral or sad occassions? If we&#8217;re still based in Perth, we would have gone to Bentley Technology Park, knock on their call centre door and demand explanation and refund. Ready Flowers apparently already have a lot...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What a great end of year proposal! May you two live happily ever after! Meme Proposal &#124; Tim * Audrey from Crazy Monkey Studio on Vimeo. This Meme proposal video was made when Timothy Tiah proposed to his girlfriend Audrey. It&#8217;s so geeky, cute and lovely. I nearly got all teared up.. because well.. I am a geek too, and it is so cute. I read Audrey&#8217;s blog every now and then. Found her not long ago from Cheesie&#8217;s blog. I think she runs Minimaos with Cheesie. So, the video is extra special because in a way I sort of know who she is&#8230; not just some random stranger in Malaysia. Timothy is co-founder of Nuffnang. I am not a Nuffnang member but if you read lots of Singaporean or Malaysian blogs like I do, you probably know what Nuffnang is. Kudos to the video development company. The video is so well made. Apparenty it got so popular that gizmodo featured it, even Ryan Seacrest and Christina Perri tweeted about it. The soundtrack is Christina Perri&#8217;s a thousand years. The same soundtrack as on Twilight&#8217;s Breaking Dawn part 1 movie (Bella&#8217;s wedding). Read more about the proposal on Audrey&#8217;s blog or on Timothy&#8217;s blog. Audrey&#8217;s blog &#8211; fourfeetnine.com/2011/12/11/the-proposal Tim&#8217;s blog &#8211; timothytiah.com/2011/12/21/video-of-our-meme-proposal]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fiji Destination Wedding &#8211; Sheraton Fiji Resort, Denarau Island, Fiji Got hitched!!! Special thanks to: Miriama Komailevuka (wedding planner, Sheraton Fiji Resort) for the best stress-free wedding experience, and Susana Stolz (Chief concierge, Sheraton Fiji Resort) for the friendliest customer service, room upgrade, attention to detail for an excellent holiday/honeymoon Isoa Tokalautawa from Tokman Imagez for the awesome wedding photos. &#160; Fiji beats Hawaii.. hands down!! Nice islands with beautiful lagoons for snorkelling, friendly people, good food, sun, pool, jetski safari and many many more. I am glad we chose Fiji as our wedding destination, instead of Vegas, Hawaii, Phuket or Bali. We&#8217;ll definitely come back for another relaxed island holiday.]]></description>
