After a pleasant enough three hour train journey to Zurich (you know, clean and punctual trains), I just found out my flight to Sri Lanka is delayed 90 minutes! Great fun. I wonder if I can nurse this glass of white wine until 10 o'clock tonight! Hopefully I'll sleep though. At least at the last minute I decided to go "comfortable" in track suit and T-shirt! Kinda classy looking huh! Actually just sitting here it always amazes me how classy some women can look when they travel. But don't count me in that group I guess. Money helps of course but I have just never "had it"! My former admin assistant when I worked at the World Bank always looked like a million dollars too and she didn't spend a lot on clothes either! Oh well!
Another thing that always amazes me is while I was sitting here a Swiss German family sat down next to me and dad spoke to me in Swiss German. I didn't hear him at first so he immediately switched into English! Impressive huh!
Anyway I don't know how much I will be able to post while I'm away but if not "see ya next week!"
Have a great trip - hopefully no more delays!
ReplyDeleteI’m keeping my fingers crossed. I just spent the last hour chatting to an absolutely charming young Irish lad. About 14 I guess. He wanted to pay for an apple juice with a 50 euro note and the bartender explained he would get all his change in Swiss francs so he hesitated as he didn’t want Swissies. So I paid for his drink and we chatted away happily for an hour. Solved Brexit and who would win the rugby 6 nations!
DeleteHave a GREAT time!
ReplyDeleteI’m sure I will. Just gotta get on the plane!
DeleteHave a great trip!
ReplyDeleteThanks I'm sure I will. I arrived 3 hours ago and one shower later I feel almost human!
DeleteMy theory about looking classy is it depends on your shape. I use that theory cos I never manage to look classy and it takes the responsibility out of my hands ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time!
Even when I had the figure I never could pull it off. But after 24 hours on the road "comfortable" was definitely the way to go (plus soap, deodorant and toothpaste in a carry on)!
