Re: Bonfire 2015
A shame you can't come this year, they should be shifting the wedding around the bonfire though! 
On another note, I have now booked all my flights, arriving in Brisbane on Thursday evening, and leaving Sydney on Tuesday morning in an A380

Re: Bonfire 2015
Tell them to have the wedding somewhere scenic! Lofty mountains, near the coast, maybe a river. Batemans Bay perhaps?
In other news my leave is also in and approved. Hopefully no hiccups getting the white car registered but I have like a month till bonfire so should be fine.
