About six months from now I will be outbound from DXB for the last time, never to return. I have promised myself that once the wheels are up on that flight I will never on any occasion think of EK again.
My wife and and I are practicing the drill now. If I ever do mention EK again in any context of complaint or umbrage she is to slap me on the back of my wizened head and say "Remember what happened to SOPS!"
