I is back

Well hello all!
A wonderful week has passed as I have been on holiday in Nice and it has truly been a fantastic week. Wonderful weather and much fun was had - not so much of a tan as I just tend to burn but I do have some kind of browning to show for my week away from blighty.
I flew with Thomson - and I must say that it's an interesting experience. Well flying from Coventry that is...an airport in a portacabin is an interesting idea. With just 3 check in desks and 1 baggage carousel along with customs and passport control staff that couldn't care less...it's certainly a change when you've just flown from Nice Cote D'Azur Airport!!
Still - it was no fuss and although the pilot both there and back seemed to have no concept of height or direction which resulted in a few steeps dives and climbs and I'm sure we almost missed landing on the mini-strip at Coventry!! But you can't complain - it was nice to get away for so cheap.
Anyway, now I'm back - I'm sitting here and it feels like I never went really. I have felt the benefits of getting away from everything for a week and having a laugh with friends...but sadly the effects will all wear off soon as the tan fades and Monday rolls round again and it's back to work again.
Still, you can't beat a good holiday experience.
