Back from another trip to canberra; had a really positive experience flying Virgin Blue; I was so busy talking to a fellow passenger on the way down that I completely forgot about my book (The Cross and Christian Ministry); I phoned enquiries, they said “talk to baggage in Canberra”, spoke to them, and the book was waiting for me when I made it to Canberra Airport this afternoon.
The only problem was the long walk across the terminal back to Qantas: my bag was a lot heavier than I thought.
