I'm an old bat who would hit you back with my pink plastic hairbrush. I'd walk away I'd look in your eyes and here's what I'd say I don't want you," I don't need you, I don't love you any more"
I'd walk out the door You'd be down on your knees you'd be calling to me
and once again I would spare you!

In case anyone is in any doubt - we are the best of friends as only friends could address each other as such. Were he single, I might even consider a dalliance except he is soooo much older than me!!

Him? Write a book? He'd need to master joined-up writing first!

Be careful what you ask for as The Toilet Paper thread has stirred memories and memories stir TFTGs. I am thinking of writing a book but who one earth would take me as an Author?

A bit late to post for a Friday but hopefully I'll be forgiven by the mods.
So Mrs. Firstlight bought me a cake which related to my hobbies and interests - and it was good to see a BA-A380 that was not delayed due to mechanical issues!

Indeed. It was my birthday last month and all I got from my missus was a pair of slippers and a bar of chocolate.

I wish you two would just get hitched instead of arguing all the time on here. Especially as neither of you are no spring chickens!!

Despite the freezing weather I'm making asado. Gathering up the two most important items at the moment.

I am indeed, although Mrs. F. does alright with 40k miles of J/F travel annually and industrial quantities of BA175's

Every day is a learning day. Just now I learned that you get funny looks in the Moxy when you spit your beer out because you are choking on your laughter 😂

Too much faffing about making it. The ready made stuff gives me heartburn.

Happy Friday one and all!

After an eventful start to the week when I ran out of steam on Monday whilst on my mad lounge tour, it’s been a thankfully quiet work week. The weekend ahead sees me back in the air with a handful of cheap and cheerful SAS flights to extend the Eurobonus status match period through to 2026.

In other news, BA have been having fun with the schedules over the past 24 hours and I ended up with a number of cancellations yesterday. All of them weee recoverable bar one, Christmas Day . I’m still pondering the options but I may have to kill that trip and start on plan B.

That lounge tour sounded mad. How far through it did you get until you ran out of steam?

My week has been flat out busy as am in the middle of peak season. Good problem to have.

The great news is that our kitchen refurb is finally complete and we have a fully functioning kitchen. Including a dishwasher, which is still a piece of tech not seen much here in Mexico. It's doing it's first load of dirty plates right now. Hallelujah!

As for flight stuff. I decided JALs switch from a 787 apex to 767 rust bucket and strange seat combo wasn't to our liking so have shifted us to a different service between Tokyo and Jakarta. I've also been talking to tour agencies about Borneo tours of 🦧 orangutans. For our middle east trip in October I just got a schedule change from QR..we now have 8 hours to kill at DOH from 5pm to 1am. Considering we have AS access, I'm sure we'll be fine.

Happy Friday
!
