Reasons not to fly

elbeno, 30 November, 2004

(number N in a series of many) It is a well known fact that airline employees are for the most part jobsworth automatons. Witness my recent experience with Virgin Atlantic. Apparently they have a rule for us plebs in economy class that your one piece of carry-on luggage must weigh…

Katamari!

elbeno, 5 November, 200429 July, 2007

I’m driving down the street, and thinking, “These cars – no problem. That big fence – should be easy to roll up, flat and thin things generally are. This line of trees will give me a nice size boost. Cosntruction site, I’ll have some of that! Start on the portakabins,…

Too many flights lately, cooped up in noxious breathings and recirculatings. Holiday over – back at work….

Harry Potter: film 3
