Oh, this made me laugh and at the same time remember frustrating flights out of Chimoio, in Mozambique.

QldDeb: i think it’s the trying to get somewhere vs the wanting to sit and be somewhere that makes the crucial difference.

ExpatMum: yup lights is another reason to check! i do that too.

paradise – i hope she’s better? i know: i long to get out and then when faced with the chaos ImPrecison presents, i wonder why i’ve bothered.

Thanks More Than: yup, peaceful. if you discount the guineafowl who never stops shouting.

I’m with you on the flying Susanna, i am a very, very nervous flier. I try to keep my eyes closed all the way which probably looks a bit silly when i am trying to simultaneously order beer but frankly i don’t care what ImPrecision crew think of me. Thank you very much for highlighting my blog.

Wife in HK; restraint growing very very thin. I face ImPrecision prospect again in two weeks; watch this space for headless airline employees …

Grannymar: thank you. special, special stolen moments.

kathleen, and i bet he tells me exactly same thing when i enquire in two weeks time …

Mapesbury, it’s odd isn’t it: you DO miss the laid back. But its astonishing how quickly i become accustomed to the luxuries of efficient time keeping!

Thank you Dumdad; it was delicious.

I think Precision’s motto is ”better to merely consider prospect of travelling than actually arrive”! thanks, rosiero.

thanks Mud, she was fine once finally home.

i try not to imagine it too often Mr S. Thinking about it has me in jitters!

What an unnecessarily epic journey home – I hope your eventual home-coming was sweet and peaceful.

My daughetr’s been ill this week. I slip involuntarily into waking up at night & checking her (she’s 4). It’s meant I’ve been grounded (even more than usual) all week & thus am feeling very frayed around the edges as well as having contratced quite a severe does of cabinfever. But then when I do venture out, I am jolted into remembering how frustrating this city is; the traffic, the anarchic driving, the bureaucaracy, the miscommunication etc. Ho hum…….

I checkd on my 5 year old “for breathing” the other night and laughed at myself. I also check on my teenagers but that’s usually to make sure they’ve turned their lights out!
