The concept of Concorde evokes all kinds of images of exclusivity, elegance, lives of the rich and famous, success, etc. For many years when I was as young of Pandor it was something to aspire to. Nothing wrong with that.
Reality seldom compares with the dream. Many on this forum then to share too much about the reality. You do still get glimpses of the dream in the Concorde Room (or the Flounge) - the odd celebrity, a nice drink and calm atmosphere. Too many of us forget to enjoy living the dream and enjoy our success and just continue life being a critic. Their loss.
Pandor - I know its a holiday but get back to your books.
