It's warm and muggy in London and, despite the threat of disruption at the airports, many people are looking forward to getting away from it all...
...via "Soft Tempo Lounge Airways", perhaps?
The only way to fly.
[Music: The Flying Dutchmen (Pete Moore) - Sunday's Child]
Since i can't have the two boys right now...the Soft Tempo will be my music in to work today.
ReplyDeleteThe mystery is - why does no-one usually look like that when I am at a beach? Jx
DeletePS Glad you like the music!
Doesn't it look so lovely and civilized? Everyone is dressed well. No one is shoveling takeaway curry or a sloppy fast food burger in their mug. Everyone polite AND there is actually room to walk down the aisles! Fly me to the moon! Kizzes.
ReplyDeleteNo such thing as "air rage" in those days! Jx
DeleteAlso - no discount airlines, or package deals, fewer passengers, and fewer runways.

You'd need to be able to pay premium prices in order to get silver service at your seat! Jx
DeleteWhere are the glamorous couple determined to join the mile high club?
ReplyDeleteSx
In the loo already. Jx
DeleteSorry Ms Scarlet and Jon. There are seldom couples involved in joining the mile high club. The toilets are too small to fit more than two people and the number one rule for joining the club is that the participants are strangers to one another prior to the flight. So just taking your partner into the loo and giving them a good old whatever does not count. In their case it just shows bad manners delaying those desperate to use the facilities legitimately. The MHC follows that number one rule from the days of passenger ships whence it was bonk a total strange between departing the wharf and passing a certain point, eg New York the narrows, San Francisco the golden gate, Sydney the heads, Southhampton the isle of wight etc. Rgds Anon from afar.
DeleteThanks, Anon - so the mile high club actually started out as a "hundred-foot-high" (off the water) club? In that case I am probably a member... Jx
DeleteOh! bugger you and the beach blokes! (ahem!), why can't airline service be civilised these days? Oh, right! It's all about the money...
ReplyDeleteEverything these days is about the money! It's the airlines' own fault if they're struggling now, as they laid off thousands of staff during the pandemic, and now they're having huge difficulty recruiting... Jx
DeleteOh, I've missed Soft Tempo Lounge! Serves me right for being a slack Alice and missing loads of blog posts and things, I suppose.
ReplyDeleteQuite few since last time you were here, Mr DeVice! Jx
