So, some friends this evening are flying with EasyJet. And they’re stuck on the plane and can’t get off because there’s a problem with the parking brake. The last time someone I know had to fly EasyJet, they had a 10-hour delay. Moral of the story? Anyone?

Am watching 1969’s the Battle Of Britain. Again. Cheesy old film really but amazing flying footage. Also; much better to see National Socialists being shot down rather than running the government or a major car company.
