No, but an emergency of a different kind, On an evening flight back from dinner at Fife airport I was told by the other half in no uncertain terms that we had to be home in time for Corrie starting as she had forgot to record it (possible equipment failure) upon reaching our home strip I was advised not to do the usual "buggering about" (overfly the field to view the windsock, fly the pattern etc,) due to the extreme urgency, upon landing it was suggested that there was to be no more "pissing around" (installing vent plugs, pitot cover and chalks) apparently they could wait till the morning.

All ended well with bums on the couch at 7:30 sharp.
