Flight Fright

[Rubyrose]

I am going to Italy in June but have never flown before and am quite scared of it! I don't really want to take tablets but was wondering what ones I could take if it came down to it, to calm me down?

[ELVIS68]

There`s nothing to worry about flying, it`s crashing you should be worried about

[Rubyrose]

As if I hadn't worked that one out!!! I am hoping I get the bug and become a little jet setter! Lol.

So what can I take then? Perhaps just a bottle of vino will do the trick?

[stewey]

Ruby, you ask "what ones could I take if it came down"? Wouldn't be much point in take anything would there?


PS: I'm sure you'll get some serious replies which will help you.

[redhead23]

you could try KALMS - or go to your local holland and barrot store just enjoy italy , all them italian men lovely !!!!!

[Rubyrose]

Thanks Stewey.... I will remember your humour when the wing falls off my plane... should help me through that troublesome time. ;o)

[Rubyrose]

Thanks Red. Kalms? I shall have a look.

Its all the thoughts of Italian men that is making me want to get on the plane! That and one of my close friends lives there and I get a basically free holiday. I have been promising to go for years... think its about time I did it.

[ELVIS68]

The worse thing is, if a wing does fall off, you`ve got about 5 minutes before you hit the ground

[Rubyrose]

Cheers Elvis.... well I won't be calling you in my last 5mins.. you can count on that! Lol.. Ok... You might cross my mind.

Which horse you put your money on then? I have 3 e/w. Jack High, Risk Accessor and Silver Birch.

I`ve had a tenner win on Longshanks, even if it loses i`m quids in, while I was in the bookies earlier I found �20 on the floor

[crete]

i hate flying , but is it worth the anxiety to land in a foreign country,,,,, yes it is,

[crete]

ive 2 pounds each way on longshanks.

[ELVIS68]

I also found a mobile phone in there but i`m still having a guilt trip whether I should`ve handed that in

[skyep]

Hi Ruby - Try ' Lanes Quiet Life ' Says, to relieve periods of worry, stress, irritability & promotes natural sleep. This is a traditional herbal remedy & it works! I took a couple earlier today so I could have a siesta before going to a party tonight.

[crete]

elvis, 20 pounds and a mobile phone, did you not think to give it to the staff ? so it could be returned to the owner ?

[Rubyrose]

�20 in the bookies? Jammy git! I wouldn't worry about the phone.. got to take what you can get in this life.. I would have picked it up and had it! Wouldn't blame someone for nicking mine either... its a nice phone! Lol

Cheers Skyep... that sounds like what I need. I don't want to have to rely on meds though each time I fly!

Why is everyone betting on Longshanks? Thought Joes Edge was the fave? Got Cloudy Bays and something beginning with K in the sweepstake at work. Dad has bet on Bally Cassidy!

[Rubyrose]

Nah sod that Crete! Keep it!

My horse is in he lead! Silver Birch

[ELVIS68]

Crete...done that once before, only to find 2 weeks later the bloke I handed it in to sold it to my mate, as for the �20...fook am I handing that over, finders keepers

[crete]

elvis , you know that 20 pounds may be required to feed some children ?

[ELVIS68]

If the �20 was to feed some children, why did I find it in the bookies and not Tescos...smartarse

[Rubyrose]

Good answer Elvis.... If you had found it in the Job Centre then maybe you should have felt slight guilt but in the Bookies.... no worries.

I put �4 each way on Silver Birch and it won! What's that.... about �150?
