Temporary Temporal Setbacks

There are no such thing as delays. There are only Temporary Temporal Setbacks, and we should all learn patience.

I cannot claim the best night's sleep, but it created an entertaining memory and hence I am content with being tired. We were both packed and ready to leave within approximately six minutes of having woken up, which shows you exactly how much we wanted to stay in that place. Again it was bananas and bread for breakfast, a habit I seem to have passed onto Zoe as well. Paid Zoe back the €10 I owed her. Realised I now had no money for the bus ticket to the airport. Borrowed €6 back from her.

We were on separate flights because British Airways gave me a free return ticket to anywhere in Europe, whereas Zoe had booked hers much later, so we split up after going through the departure gate expecting to see each other in little over an hour.


All flights out of Dublin were delayed due to fog etc, so it wasn't until about three hours later that we met up again in Heathrow. Beryl and Alex were there to pick us up. :-)

"It is lovely, isn't it. That's why I call it the scenic route, unless you bash into it."
