There's no place like it

Sunday

Finally back home.

The AGM went briskly and without incident Sunday morning and we went for lunch at the restaurant upstairs. This continued into a general discussion and socialising event until we were due to leave for the airport. I was planning to share a taxi with the treasurer but one of the members offered to drive us there. I think he just wanted an excuse to drive the flash Ford  muscle car he'd hired.

There was a bit of a wait once we'd checked in but the flight was only an hour.  The transit time was a couple of hours and I got to meet some of the other attendees as they arrived on later flights.  My flight was delayed 40 or 50 minutes as they had a passenger who needed oxygen rigged. Finally we were off and again I had an empty seat. It was a long flight but I did watch the movie, although I can't even remember what it was. It was after 11pm before I got home so I was pretty tired.

I have no more plans for travel this year with the proposed Beijing trip next Feb or March the next up. We also have preliminary info on the Golf club trip to Thailand which is schedule for end of March a and start of April so more blogs will follow next year.
