Come fly with me …

! This post hasn't been updated in over a year. A lot can change in a year including my opinion and the amount of naughty words I use. There's a good chance that there's something in what's written below that someone will find objectionable. That's fine, if I tried to please everybody all of the time then I'd be a Lib Dem (remember them?) and I'm certainly not one of those. The point is, I'm not the kind of person to try and alter history in case I said something in the past that someone can use against me in the future but just remember that the person I was then isn't the person I am now nor the person I'll be in a year's time.

Mrs Sane and I need to go to the Netherlands in October for the christening of our godchild.

Contrary to popular belief, booking flights at the last minute doesn’t get you a cheap ticket.  In fact, it generally gets you a more expensive ticket because someone will pay through the nose if they absolutely have to get that flight at the last minute.

Anyway, with plenty of notice we should be able to get some cheap flights, right?  Well actually, yes, we can get cheap flights.  We can get two tickets for £9.99 each off Ryanair if we leave from Stanstead and fly to Eindhoven (bit of a way from here to Stanstead but Eindhoven is the closest the other end).

So I’m happy, yeah?  No, I’m not.  The airport taxes which El Gordo has hiked up in the name of the fucking global warming scam bring the total price up to the £75 mark.  Bastard.

    Flying into Gordotaxland. But the Parr family crest should get you a discount, no?

    Ha, with the faux-socialists in charge a family crest is more likely to get you fingered for a bit of “wealth redistribution” or a length of hemp when they overthrown the capitalist scum and set up the Brownian People’s Socialist Republic of New Britain.
