It’s that time of the week where I assemble my writings, make sure things look like I’ve grammar checked them and ponder the meaning of life.
It’s time for Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond.

Next Week
I’ve got a week off next week from the real world – again – I’ve been at the consoles too long for the past three months and slowly burning what I have of my candles. I’m therefore taking a step back from the real world for a bit.
Blog posts will be running during the week to keep my brain and mental health going, but for now, stay safe and wear a mask when out and about.
