Hi Jook, all,
Dealing pretty well with the dread of going back into the office tomorrow. Got so many reports to run and that 2 hour meeting I was furious about being set up, after I’d said Id be really busy for catching up afyer my holiday.
Anyway…
Had a lucky escape from a £60 fee in Easyjet earlier. I’d forgotten they’d squeezed out of the regular one hand luggage and a small bag option pretty kuch everyone else offers, and we each had a second bag. Thankfully I had extra space in my camping bag for that gnome’s rucksack and most of the non duty free bits in my bag, but this filled my camping bag to significantly beyond the allowed size. The guy spotted this and requested that I fit it into the size checky thingamjig. Dear reader, I thrive at simple challenges and this was just such a challenge. It took a lot of heave and also ho and some encouragement from enthusiastic journey companions, but by jove did i get my bag stuck in said thingamajig! Took almost as kong to get it out. Now, when i sy i got it into the thingy, i mean the base sort of it into it. I think the guy instructed me to fit it sideways, but might have enjoyed my effort, either way, I rather, nay, furiously grumpily walk back past him telling him it fit and got onto the flight, where there was ample free space or cabin luggage. I later apologised to tht gnome, with whom I’d shared my grump, but we kept our £60.
Good to habe my cat back on my lap. Just relaxing with the Fab 5 and a glass of wine.
