Thank you all for the tips. So, it looks like the flight may well jammed as they say in Cork! Yes, we have booked up for the hotel stop in Singapore. SHMBO was in Australia about 20/25 years ago and she says the hotel stop is a must as is a visit to a well know orchid garden. What I want to know is if the Singapore Air Force Museum is worth a visit!
Ultimate destination in Australia is Melbourne after another one night hotel stop in Sydney to meet up with a cousin for a few jars.
Jars & jammed - that's sum up Cork over the last few years of seasons in the sun at Cork Airport.
To be sure it was nice while it lasted.
