Wishing you a wonderful year. :)

Many thanks, Diane. Just about to set off to the airport for a family week in Portugal so the celebrations were delayed for a day. Toodle pip!
-
My aunt just arrived yesterday from the UK and was quite put out because now you have to pay to rent a blanket if you want one as well as pay for your in-flight drinks. I would have thought it was in the airlines best interest to keep my aunt liquored up and sleeping.
You could make a killing selling Scottish throws on your flight to Portugal :-)
Hope you have fun in the sun.
-
Many Happy returns. Have a great holiday and enjoy the swally. ;)
-
The swally might be delayed....
Thanks to French air controllers' 6-day strike, the boy's flight was cancelled. The 'Nae Luck' gong has been duly awarded since every other flight on the departures board was merely delayed.
As there has been no further word, I am assuming they caught a flight to Lisbon and from there will probably hail a passing pony and trap to get to Sao Rafael this evening......
-
That was a mean thing of the French to do to our birthday boy. >:(
-
6 day strike? Aren't the buggers going to work at all this year?

Has it been a year since we all added sombreros to our pics? My, how time (unlike Roger's plane) flies.

I caved in to peer pressure :)

;D

Yep, our flight was cancelled. My wife and I managed to get the last two seats on a flight to Lisbon. On arrival, we lugged our cases on a tube train to get to a mainline station and then a 3-hour journey to the Algarve. We left home at 7 a.m. and got to our villa at 9 p.m. where we were greeted by our son and his girlfriend who had happily travelled over on a different, trouble-free flight.
From then on, we had a great time. Well, until Sunday when a pot of boiling coffee landed all over my left thigh. "Drat", I said. Thanks to the first aid kit at the villa, I got through the last couple of days just fine before our, thankfully, uneventful trip back home. (I was praying the airport security scanner wouldn't go off---if I'd had my thighs patted down, I'd have punched the guy). So I'm safely home. I had my second appointment with the doctor today and have three more appointments next week to change dressings etc.
Don't you feel so refreshed after a holday?
-
I presume you've sacked your butler? I hope your next holiday is a lot more relaxing (and I suggest you just stuck to cold Super Bock or red wine - none of this coffee nonsense.)
A belated Many Happy Returns from me too, Roger, and hope you get well soon.
-
How are you feeling Roger?
-
I'm going to the nurse every other day to get the dressing changed, Rob. It turns out there was an infection so I'm also on antibiotics. However, it's not the slightest bit sore and I'm extremely rugged and manly.
-
Was it instant or espresso?
-
No, it was sore.
-
That does sound painful. Must have put a dampener on your
trousers holiday.
What are the nurses like? Are they like the ones on the Benny Hill Show?
-
Just one nurse, Nige, and a good 'un. She was very sensitive when she explained that my modelling career may be over due to the scarring of my thigh.
