Cottage Cheese for Breakfast

The last two hotels i have stayed in have served cottage cheese as part of their breakfast buffet and it goes really well with fresh fruit ...

Nerves are Jangling!

My hotel room overlooks the runway at Geneva Airport: hence the photos coming your way!

My flight tomorrow is on Emirates and as I took photos this afternoon from my window I regretted that I had missed the equivalent flight for today: take off time, 14:20 hours. Beggar me, at 16:00 hours I saw what I was sure was an Emirates tail fin ... I checked and found that EK090 was going to take off about 2.5 hours late.

In fact, EK090 took off about three hours late. The point is that I have three hours between flights at Dubai ... I am now feeling nervous given the number of close shaves I have been having with Emirates of late: including being offloaded last week.

Watch Where You Have Your Laundry Done!

I am on an extended trip so must have my shirts laundered by someone other than me!

I had a few done in Doha last week and that was fine.

I just had some shirts laundered here in Geneva ... the charge per shirt is more than I paid for some of the shirts themselves!! I was shocked.

Think carefully before you end up paying off the National Debt to have your shirts washed and ironed!!

Naughty Chair?

Boy did i get the naughty chair.

easyJet from Gatewck to Geneva. I refused all extra charges except baggage. I am now squeezed into seat 30A, a seat built for a child.

This is against my human rights.

The Gatwick Express was stopped by signal failure etc so my plans for waiting in the lounge were ruined. I was so late in the end that i had no time for anything, not even to buy water.

Hoping for a decent flight
