We may not share the same tastes in music, but I think we share the same appreciation of just how special it can be.

I have always said, I don't know who invented music, but whoever it was, deserves more reward than anything you can think of.

A pint of Peroni followed by Eggs Benedict and a glass of NZSB.
Breakfast of champions.

A few firsts for me this morning.
Coming to the airport alone.
Coming to the airport without any paperwork - my boarding pass was on my phone.
And you know those trays, where you have to put your hand luggage to scan, and take off your belt, etc., and take out your electronic devices, and sometimes you have to have a second tray? Right, well 4 (FOUR!) trays.
A clear sign of a bloke who genuinely wants to have a good time, and isn’t going to let anything get in his way.

Is he on TOM2527 from Manchester?

No he's not!! I was looking at JSI Departures instead of Arrivals.
He's on TOM2526 and currently over Dusseldorf. I wonder if he'll remember to do a wee before he lands?
Webcam currently shows high cirrus clouds, sunshine a bit hazy and looks to be quite a breeze.

I’m here. Flight took just over three hours. What a pleasure. It felt substantially quicker than usual.
Also, for a variety of reasons, best flight I’ve ever had. Anywhere!
A treat on the plane - I had a small tube of Pringles and half a bottle of champagne.
The heat is just right. The ‘wall’ didn’t hit me when I got off the plane, but it’s quite lovely.

Couldn’t have got off to a better start.
Receptionist;
“Welcome Mr Steven.
We know you booked a basic room, but we’ve put you in a deluxe room overlooking Koukounaries Beach.
We’ve also arranged for you to have a 15 minute massage.
Both for free.”

Gerraway! You’re p****d already on only half a bottle of champagne. You’d better hope none of your family reads your feedback if this is going to carry on - you’ll be in super heated hot water when you get back. Better get some expensive smellies and chocolates to take back!

It will be the advantage of lots of ex-TC people not showing up, will be rooms going spare all over the island. Someone just rocking up on a ferry will get a great deal somewhere. Have a great time, will be interesting to see how quiet it is by comparison to same time last year, TC got a *lot* of people on and off that island each Friday.
