That thing, when you have a late night flight but you’ve been packed and ready to go since early morning and the rest of the day is just spent sitting around fidgeting and waiting until you can leave for the airport. Yup. That.

Master of Wine, greedy girl, keen traveller. Married to a genuine genius. Glass 1/2 full: sometimes sherry, syrah or, occasionally, water.
@marksquires That’s just what I decided to do! Either way, I’ve got time to kill so might as well kill it at the other end of the journey to the airport, with none of the ‘am I going to get there on time’ stress…
@simonjwoolf Yes, and pushing someone through a patisserie skills test (which is a really specialist area) if they have absolutely no experience in it just seems weird
@simonjwoolf Totally with you. Anna Haugh seems sweet but is a tad bland. Monica is much missed!
@sarahmayg I think a 1st date book swap would be a great idea! Although I always imagined I would marry someone whose music tastes aligned with mine (almost as important as books). He loves music, all right, but the crossover in taste amounts to around 10% (Bowie, Radiohead, Pink Floyd...)
