malgrat 1967

you were not in the hotel guillem in malgrat per chance were you>?
we were there a week later, for 2 weeks with my mum and dad,
flew on a british eagle britannia LHR-BCN

my mum also was so nervous after the 2 accidents the weekend previously.
(air ferry dc-4 and BMA argonaut)
the previous year my aunt's neighbour's husband died in the vanguard crash
at LHR, so my mum was terrified of flying.

funny also is that i worked for swans tours in 1974 for 18 months after
court line went bust (swans by then used BKS/northeast Tridents from LHR for their charters,
then joined i BMA at LHR 1977 for many years.
