Sticking to the brand airlines is a smart play but some of the alternatives are good value. I can recommend China Eastern via Shanghai…

100 percent this

I do! Asked about getting the 256gb version, it was $420 OOP. Ripping deal. Waiting for a similar deal on the 9a for my niece, who needs a…

Not unusual for Hubbl to offer deals on its packages, it helps to get the numbers up for the company's EOFY reporting

This may sound a bit weird but I can't help but think that a Galaxy S23 (or even anS22) in good working condition might be the go here.…

Advice welcome on an compact Android handset for a family member. She has quite small hands and her current handset is a Pixel 4a. She…

I would get Felix mobile. Currently you can get the lowest cost deal for $12.50pm, with no ongoing commitment, though I saw the $40…

Not by much but the eSIM put the 8a across the line for me. Plus, the JB deal at launch made it much better value, though the N2 probably…

I happily watched the recent Test series on 7Sport for 2 main reasons; Seven has Ponting in the comms box Fox Sport has Warner in the comms…

This might be a bit late in the going for this thread but, I have not been to Vietnam for a few years and I am going later in 2025. Is tap…

Mrs B and I went to Europe late last year with Qatar, they were fine. Service was excellent and even the 777 was quite comfortable. Doha is…

I am sure that DJT would carry on underterred...

I am wondering about using an Android phone as a laptop replacement. Has anyone used Samsung's 'Dex' or Motorola's 'Ready For' recently? I…

I concur on the P8a, I love mine and it was a steal

Just so happens we looked at exactly this at a store last week and had the guy measure it for us. He said it was 159cm

It was a part of a TripADeal package (see comment above)

It was part of a TripADeal tour so there was no cost per night per se. But I looked it up on Cruisemapper and the low for 7 nights was…

Back from the MSC cruise 14.5 months later (hell, did we book it THAT long ago?) and happy to answer Qs is anyone has any

An update, written while sitting in the airport coffee lounge after 4 weeks on the road in the EU. It worked brilliantly in Czechia, Poland…

Timing is everything... I'm out of the country and the JB system prevents purchases from OS or by using a VPN. Anyone got any ideas?

Hello, do you have an eSim that either works, or allows roaming, in Malta?

Yep, good call, currently using Felix in EU, after using it earlier in the year in China. Working well

Anyone else out there still rocking an ancient Vodafone TV unit that does most things well? I still love mine

Can confirm working in November 2024. A little bit fiddly getting roaming in Prague to attach but once sorted, good to go on both my Pixel…

Not to disagree but the TAD guides allowed us to walk around the queues at both the Forbidden City (90 minute) and the Temple of Heaven…
