Off you go, even though you're quite correct.

Sorry ND Sol and CO 1E, I have much more important things to do than try to remember the difference between "less than" and "fewer than."

There are diseases that need curing, after all, and conferences in Spain that must be booked...

I think you'll find the curing process in the Alpujarra region to be excellent, especially in Trevelez.

Actually, the conference is about honey, but I would prefer to talk about ham, which I find much tastier.

Did someone mention Bombay Sapphire?

Should people who take threads wildly off course be sent to the box as well?

Colony Collapse Disorder? I hear the bees are disappearing...

Also, I'm not entirely certain that this thread is capable of veering wildly off course. Mustn't there be a course in the first place?

As for the Bombay, one of the minor annoyances I find when flying CO is the odd looks I get when ordering a G&T on the 7:15am flight to MSY. No need to judge, just trundle on back to the bevvie cart and fetch my breakfast please, dear

Yes, more important things like posting on this thread.

This is my 666th post. Does that mean this thread is a beast? Is someone on here the Antichrist? Am I the Antichrist? Is today the Apocalypse?

I like a bit of Bombay Sapphire myself... if the world is going to end today, then I think I might have a big G&T. Sadly, my lime trees are not producing very well this year, due in part to the absence of large numbers of honeybees in my garden this year. Therefore, my G&T will be missing a most important component.

Is there any way I can claim compensation from Continental for my woeful crop of limes?

It depends.

Remember the RED ZONE is for immediate unloading and loading of passengers only; there is no parking in the WHITE ZONE.

One would think that ordering a drink on any flight to or from MSY at any hour of the morning would not draw a second glance (or a first glance, for that matter).

Welcome to FT as well! Rumor has it we're civilized in these parts
I think that is actually a shoe-box
