Welcome windownaisle! I assume that you must fly on the electric Barbie jets to get both window and aisle seat together. Unless, of course, you are a "laterally challenged" person from AAnother plaace where the aaveraage person tends to be so fat they occupy all three seats at once!

I should be careful about declaring yourself to have AC preferences on this board! If you were pure aisle only, then you might be considered to prefer DC instead. Ho hum, such choice.

The one thing that we take seriously, is not taking anything too seriously.

Happy landings.

As it was a jetty, the need to wear the beast was not there, so into the plastic bag duty free bag it went. The only time I have ever been stopped in a couple of hundred times at AMS customs was this day. I was given a real grilling about where I had come from, how long I was staying and so on. Then they asked about my cat. Er? Then they pointed at the tail hanging out of the plastic bag.

- Priceless - I hope you get time to write your memoirs one day, truly superb stuff!

With praise like that, you will go far.

Spottie, a laugh out loud for a Saturday morning as well.

BL - I know you were a tad celebratory last night... but unless I've completely failed to go to airport, today is actually Friday......

So it is. The worrying thing is that I toddled off to the office anyway.

Not really OT, but a MASSIVE bump (Tittle-tattleFTG)

From *Malhoumbeau the Mighty Moose*, and together with sidekick Cap70 (who CONTINUES to believe he's in charge

), serving Auntie Pucci by defending her honour whenever called upon (and sometimes not):

Thanks to Moomba and his fab compilation of Auntie Pucci's TFTG we came across this thread, and simply couldn't resist!

Glad to see I'm still the only Moose to have occupied a seat, and downed enough bubbly to put half of FT to shame (as for the other half, they'll know who they are...)
