You go away for a year & it's all changed....

Hello one and all

When I say 'Away' I don't mean chokey or anything - just been busy at work and family life took a big, positive turn.

Anyway, still get nervous when flying (hello Jet2, Easyjet and soon to be Thomsons) but I'm away to Barca tomorrow then Corfu mid September for a well deserved break - i.e. one where the little one isn't going.

Anyway, what happened to the Jet2 forum/thread? Did it implode?

You'd be at MUCH greater risk of serious, life threatening injury on Fri night, in a major UK city when drunkenly disposed to explain your antipathy to any social, religious, ethnic, sartorial, inked or hirsute group any one of, or all, who richly deserve your abhorrence

Personally, I think they are all to be avoided but I wouldn't go out and tell them

What happens if you and your OH crash and your little one has to live without you both?

Probably, better off without you!

As a paramedic I see all of the above and trust me, I settle for no nonsense on my vehicle. Patients have tried and failed.
