Sounds like a plan.

I had an overwhelming urge today to catch a flight somewhere.... anywhere, just to get away, and I lurve Tapas.

Have you noticed we have something in common... trees. Mine be a Coolibah.

Yes I noticed that, but given my age I immediately thought of a cask of wine. Sorry, it was a seventies, student thing! All we could afford.

Anyway, don't plan to come here during the Games, although I could meet you at the airport in an official car if you did! It might be worth losing my job over.

You'd better give me a little time to research Spanish eateries here.

OK, that's done. I'm ready!

Stop it right now......... I can't afford to be reminded of Coolibah Wine casks ..... Life is too short to drink cask wine!

If I haven't flown for a while and I take someone out to the airport or pick someone up...the smell of aviation fuel in the air is enough for me..... I get such an itch............. :D
This I understand. I really want a holiday that involves a flight. Makes the distance seem greater, and the break all the better.

I remember the cask thing, and the mandatory flagon of Moselle before that. What was a bbq without one?

Any time I am on a plane of late, it is to work....... but then sometimes life can hand you surprises that are worth it.......so there is an element of "holiday" lurking there when you least expect it!

You know that if you decide to head this way.... that fun and games await..... not to mention good food, good wine and good company........ ;)

Everything goes with chocolate, I thought.
The Mexicans cook with chocolate, but you probably know that.

I'm told Baileys on ice goes well with it too.

Trivia. Chocolate was only available as a drink until Joseph Fry figured out how to produce a solid version, and our addiction was born.

Now Bailey's on ice would be one of my favourite drinks. Especially at the end of the night when I want something sweet and smooth to drink.

God Bless Joseph Fry... he should be sainted.
 
Nothing to be embarrassed about. Obviously you have had a hoot in here.

I have had many things on Lit..... but I can't ever remember hooting all that much.....





Maybe it's all the alcohol I consume :rolleyes:

Indeed, instead he got taken over by Cadbury.

I remember Fry's chocolate when I was a kid in England, I'm not sure if I remember if from oz as well.
