I went out for another cigarette. She somehow took the time to leave the front door open.

Not only that, she unspliced a rope (I don't even know where that came from) and made sure that the door was tied open. You can't unsplice a rope for the sake of pettiness, it's wrong. And for that reason, espexially fuck off. Mispelling intentional.

edit: there was a granny knot involved.

there's a lot of nautical terminology going on there - do you live on a boat?

Drove to the shop, making me late for work, to get a new calor gas cylinder only to find the van door frozen shut. Will try again later

My legs have just skated out from under me and I fell on my elbow. I’m ok but I want to go back home to bed.

Booked a 17hr flight for work, and just realized it's basic economy. I'm going to be in bits when I get there. On to the airline now in the hope they can sort out an upgrade

I was just reading about the cold weather, and this rte thing said "A flight between Dublin and Donegal this afternoon is still going ahead" or whatever, but this made me wonder, who the fuck is it that flies from Dublin to Donegal? Like, would you not just spend as much time going through the fuckin airports as any other method of transport takes to get to Donegal?

I've done it a couple of times. They serve you tea and you're already landing by the time you've drunk it

This is the view on a good day

I'm not sure if I'm remembering this right, but there's an airport in Ushuaia I think? where the plane rips down the runway and flies straight off the end. It's a mad feeling, no pull up. It almost felt like you drop a tiny bit, tearing along the runway and it STOPS and for a moment there's... nothing. Eventually you work out you're flying, but that takes a moment or two.

edit: I think it might be Ushuaia looking at a photo there. Somewhere out that direction anyway.

Driving it can be a 12-13 hr round trip if conditions are bad - so if it costs less than a day of your job its worth it.

I'd prefer a train if they still existed though.

The buses just catch fire now.

Planes trains and automobiles.

Got the upgrades. Costs a fortune. Will all be billed to the company.

i think in our place, if the flight is over either 4 or 6 hours, it's automatic that you get business class.

Nice. My lot won't let us book Business class, but I got "Economy Plus" which means legroom and adjustable seats so I can sleep.
