Film: Weapons

I'm back in Ireland for the weekend  - flew with  Aer Lingus  because  Ryanair , ironically, was so ridiculously expensive.. so I got the Elizabeth Line . Now, when I did this before, I was practically pushed out the door, it was so crowded - so, when I saw I could take the Thameslink to Farringdon and catch it there, a bit earlier in the journey, I thought that an excellent idea, and that's what I did. And yes - the Thameslink was lovely, comfy and air-conditioned.. and although I didn't get a seat on the Elizabeth Line until I was nearly at my destination, I wasn't in danger of being pushed off either, as before. And to be fair, I could have taken seats that a couple of people offered - wasn't in need, though. The flight was very nice, apart from a wee altercation when I asked for a white wine, and to accompany it, they gave me a glass with ice! I sent it back, asked for one without - and you should have seen the stewardess' face.. what is it with white wine...
