Bliss Today....

[gness]

.......after the scariest ever take off in a plane.....

......the Mallorcans.........

I've spent today enjoying the carnivals in Palma....... the locals are the friendliest people.........almost as friendly as the Irish.......and the food and wine has been fantastic.......

It's been sunny..calm and warm........and you should see the waiters...... :-)

[aelmpvw]

it's beyond me why the pilot let you anywhere near the plane's controls

[gness]

Ael.....he did the takeoff on his own....wasn't great so he asked me to help with the landing......yes I had to have a cushion to see over the joystick thing.....but it was perfect....... :-)

[Caran]

How long are you there for gness?

[tonyav]

yes I had to have a cushion to see over the joystick thing.....


Hey gness, that's not like a gearstick thing you know, you can't hang your takeaways from it !.

[Ann]

Lucky you Gness - enjoy the sunshine! xx

[goodgoalie]

Get some Byzance in duty free!

[elliemay1]

Why was the take-off scary? What happened?

[tonyav]

Storm Doris, elliemay.

[gness]

Here for another week, Caran......some wonderful and funny mixups with the accommodation.......I'm getting to know the agent very well......though my humour is befuddling him.......by the end of the week he will either employ, marry or murder me.....

It's handbags I hang, Tony.....the original Honda Civic had a fantastic gearstick for handbag hanging....

I will enjoy, Ann......lovely so far.....and I wish I could get Byzance, GoodG.......that would be bliss....

Yes it was the storm that delayed takeoff ...and something else weird that wasn't explained properly.....but the cabin crew were really good.....and the wine helped calm the rocking plane........x

[shoota]

I'd opt for the third option....

[aelmpvw]

i'm available for best man if you change your mind shoota

[shoota]

What are you thinking Ael? Have the honeymoon and then do the murder...?

[gness]

I'm not playing this game....... :-(

[shoota]

Have you seen many brown jugs on your travels round the island?



Lots of naturist beaches on Mallorca...

[aelmpvw]

doesn't sqad live in majorca? perhaps gness has booked a private consultation ...

[gness]

So far I've only travelled around the city...with suitcase and a confused young agent......

No consultation with Sqad.....I think I scare him a little...... ;-)

[marval]

Have a lovely time.

[gness]

Thank you, Marval.......I seem to now be settled in a lovely apartment...at last......but they've mucked up the dates and would like me to leave earlier than I booked for.....so I'm playing the ditzy old lady.....who could become a squatter...... :-)

But, that aside it's a wonderful place and I've had some fun so far......x
