Let the long road to Denver begin

by

Well, here we go again. The end of the year mileage run. Rather than postponing it to the new year, I'm actually going to do something mad - and do it before the new year. Wonders will never cease eh? So, what's ahead of me? Well tonight, a flight on a lovely Irish Airline and.. a Travelodge. In my defence, it was only €19.

The trip report is on the way…

... sorry things are taking a bit long - least of all its a matter of putting text to the screen. It *should* hopefully be live for the Weekend.  However in the event of a delay, please look out of the window for any flying pigs. I'm hoping to get things back to normal this week and should be posting news and commentary from next week onwards … [Read more...]
