Every good weekend needs a few tears, an overpacked suitcase and some firm resolutions…
Funny enough, all three of the above related to my Ryanair flight…New ‘regulations’ mean that you’re not allowed carry a handbag now. So everything has to fit into your suitcase. I ended up wearing my ‘nightout’ heels and carrying loads just to fit my small handbag in. Because of course duty free counts now too…Trying to put on heels while holding onto a handrail of a travelator going the other way … I imagine someday it’ll be a comedy sketch.
On the plus side – I’ve never felt so well protected in all my life in Dublin this weekend. I was almost going to ask the Guard beside me if he could help carry my shopping bags – there were that many of them…
Of course coming back to London has been interesting – my new resolution is to tackle tennis…and maybe have a glass of pims on the lawn afterwards. Off to buy a racket…was going to bring my one from home…but I’m sure there’ll be some ‘regulation’ about that…although Mr.Ryanair, I have a good idea where you can put it…
