A pint of Xmas spirit

Xmas spirit.

One word.

Two syllables………

Baileys

Cornflake has developed a taste for it, he pours it by the wine glass

On the plane journey to spend Xmas at the Frenchie residence I thought I’d buy him one as a treat for when he woke from a nap. When I saw the size of the individual shot on offer from the trolley, I asked for two. Cornflake opened an eye and suggested four.

I like to think we’re not alone in our Baileys miss portioning.

Besides we deserved a drink.

We had checked into an hotel to ensure our timely arrival for a morning flight. The morning flight eventually took off at 3.30pm.

Close on 10,000 steps, three trips to a departure gate, two over priced meals, and a bit of unnecessary shopping and we were still in a good frame of mind. After some Googling amongst the passengers that revealed we were being lied to regarding our delayed flight, my mood reset to riot status.

A fellow passenger said she didn’t fancy spending Xmas in jail, so would pass on the rioting.

I considered her point.

Jail would only marginally be my oddest Xmas.

Anyhow, almost six hours and two flight crews later than scheduled, we were in the air.

Feliz natal.
