drshmoo,
I know it's going to be hard to give up those Latte's on Campbell Pde at Bondi, but Melbourne is supposedly the cafe capital of Australia, I'm sure you'd fit in well! Especially given your Giuseppe background!
Seriously though, im suprised it's taken Virgin so long. The number of 737s parked at T2 every night is mind boggling, must be heaps of crew overnighting here in SYD
