I used to post on the BA board, often in reply to your entertaining contributions, and I treasure your Muccis (two, I think), metaphorically feeling them, whenever I get down. But I practically gave up flying BA many years ago and, at the end of this year, I shall be Platinum for Life in FB. Just recently, because AF was not an option, I flew BA First to Australia and got back to Silver in the BAEC. It was, roughly, the standard of AF Business. I didn't enjoy a trip standing on the little train to the C gates, then waiting for a long time on the jetway with what seemed like over 100 other Group 1 passengers. .

This short message is to urge you to spoil yourself (even if only once in your life) with a trip in AF La Première. It will cost you both arms and both legs but, as L'Oréal will tell you, you're worth it. You will be driven everywhere in a limousine and won't have to wait around on any jetway. If it's an overnight flight, from CDG, eat in the wonderful 1st Class lounge restaurant, then sleep on a proper mattress on board. Mortgage one of your properties, if necessary.
Dear One - thank you. I would love to do just as you said. Maybe I'll go by myself and leave Him Indoors at home and save his fare. I shall do this for preference whilst the 6 Nations Championship is taking place. He probably will not realise that I have gone until no food appears before him. There is no argument the I will entertain that says that La Cuisine Francaise in general and La Cuisine du Terroir are not the best in the world.

I have only one concern however - how am I going back to BA after savouring the delights of La Premiere? I might have to sell everything and become a SDF living on a bench at CDG 2
