Yes it's lovely, you can see a glass of it in my photo of the white wine on the dolphin boat. I described it as rum but indeed it's poncha.

1. I see you live just northeast of me. My sympathies for having to use that station.
2. You were seriously low on that approach, I'm surprised. I would not have liked that, your captain must be really into dive and drive...
3. I really need to get myself back to Madeira ASAP.
Buurman! I don't mind our local station at all. It's just a short walk for me and trains to Schiphol four times an hour.
The landing was fun! As I understand it, pilots need a special training for this. So I was impressed he managed it so smoothly despite the turbulence in the final turn.
And of course everyone here is telling me you are very welcome to come back for a visit!
