I had to pick up a colleague over from London for the day on the same morning as the Quantas arrival. He landed at about 0850 and as we had to head for Bishopstown I went around the back of the airport. Big crowd on backroad - I enquire as to what was happening - am told about arrival of jumbo and recall something in previous days papers about a wine producers delegation arriving, so enquire if it's 'the wine one' - reply comes as 'nah boy, tis all different colours'
Another 'I wouldn't believe it only that I was there' gem for my colleague to bring back to England!
