The Travel Thread

[mightyrooster]

From my own personal experience flying is a very pleasant experience Even the long haul flights That is unless of course you get a window seat and are then boxed in by two fat 160 plus kg Germans OMG that was fcuken brutal 10 pints before boarding in Manchester - Frankfurt (flight was delayed it was only meant to be two three tops then hauled straight across the tarmac to board the next flight ) Frankfurt to Singapore 11 hours When I arrived in Singapore I sat in a cold shower for half an hour to recover

Sound like fun!! I don't know how it's possible to actually sleep on a long haul flight either.

FWIW I'm currently planning my next trip to Japan where I'll visit my daughter in the coastal paradise of Tsuruga. Might duck into the Port of Humanity (pictured below) at some stage, which is linked to the story of Chiune Sugihara (the WWII diplomat who handed out visas to a heap of Jews so that they could safely pass through Japan). Always an interesting part of history to me, notably because I was an actor in a stage play about the whole thing (yes, I was dragged in as the token white guy in town).

If I get around to Japan - if I survive the long haul to the UK and there's enough money saved up - I plan to do the standard places there like Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Hiroshima, Miyajima Island, Nara etc. Sounds all very typical but since it will be my first time and all.

Oh RT this is a splendid idea True testament of your smarts when you take your head out of the sand.

MR It is never too late in life Seeing as though I am able to still be winning GFs in my chosen sport at my age ( after along time away from playing ) which is not too far behind your own age then you and your Husband can easily mange to travel the UK I urge you to look at my recent successful sporting comeback as inspiration for you to fulfill all of your travel dreams, and when you do I look forward to your daily blogs on here about them

But how do you social distance when winning GF’s?

And I didn’t know knitting was a sport?!?

Pyss easy.

I just put on the provided pyjamas then get a flight attendant to put the mattress on my seat before laying it flat so I can bed in between dinner and breakfast.

Oh Renty it isn’t knitting It is something far more cardiovascular then that

Love to see you have a run at it but I think your first would have lasted longer than the time you could manage on the field

You are right. I don’t run. I am right also in the fact I have people to do that for me!

Provided pjs??

Yes MR. They are a little fiddly to get on while at 10kms up but they are comfy and you don’t get your own clothes dirty when you spill a bit of food or drink.

I still have Qantas PJ's after a clumsy but still very sweet attendant spilled some French champers on me just after we transited in Hong Kong on the way back to Australia.
