DISQUS

That was a pretty hilarious account of your trip Mark ! However I am amazed to find out that people face the same problems there with the airlines and at the airport, like we do here in India. I think we take the developed side of the world too much for granted.

4 hours of sleep is not fun. I'm not a morning person, either, but somehow I've made it awake for the last 3 months at 5:30-6 am to make it to work!

Scotland is on my list of places to visit, only after I visit my family's homeland of Ireland. I do have a question --- do you get free drinks on the planes or do you have to pay for them like you do in the US?

And, here I thought I was going to get another boring account of someone's silly vacation. Well, maybe it was a silly vacation, but at least it was a lively, interesting account.

BTW: I think you should have pursued the coffee cream/milk fiasco all the way to the top.

Ellie - it depends on what flight you are on and how much you pay for the flight. If you are on an expensive flight with say British Airways or Lufthansa then you get free drinks and free food. If you go with the budget airlines then you get nothing for free and you have to pay for food and drink - and the prices are NOT cheap.

Jason - a silly vacation? Nah, just cold and rainy - and lots of shortbread.

@ Mark, so it is much like US airlines. US airlines are charging so much now for flights and extras like pillows and blankets! We even have to pay up to $125 for checked luggage!

Josh - that was me fooling around with Monika's bear called Barney. I'm not really sleeping in that picture - just pretending to! Honest! :-)

Hilarious post - thanks for sharing! :)

Now if you could reveal some more details about the tea with milk philosophy, I don't get it. ;)

Really great stuff in here. I even read some to Rich who laughed, too. Thanks for sharing. Makes me realize a good writer can make even a trip on a plane a great read!
