Things that please me - Part 6

We got upgraded from premium economy to business class on a MEL > LA flight back when V Australia was quite new, so we weren't loyal customers or anything. They didn't even tell us we'd been upgraded, they were just profusely apologising that their pyjama supplier hadn't delivered and we...

I didn't

Iirc i got gloves only after the poor salesperson went out the back and found them somewhere. Couldn't get a scarf.

We went straight from Vegas to NY and it went from mid 20s to around 4 degrees in 2012 and were the only ones wearing shorts off the plane.

The cold punched me in the face

First night out waiting for the taxi got me. I had never felt that type of cold before. Frigid 4 degrees

Was in NY and DC for three weeks in summer, over 100F every day . Quite different on the west coast, wore a jacket on some days.

September in NY was brutal. Too ****ing hot. I can't fathom a real summer there

Yep and Chicago is bad too. I spent a summer in Michigan but it was hot during the day and cooled down each night without fail, which was great

Greece in August too is off the charts hot. Even on the islands

In London in November I recall waiting for the first tube train of the day to get to Victoria station, in slip on Skechers and no socks

Like it was a gorgeous sunny day but freezing cold

I was very surprised at the weather in general when I was there circa 2003 October to December

90 percent of it no doubt "Hi Meb Insert some nonsense that doesn't even need to be an email "

 

[Shell]

I don't think I'd have that many emails the entire year

I love not being a teacher or POL

After last weeks shoe purchase I'm now eying off these:

Tried them on today
Even the largest size (14) was too narrow for my feet. Now I'm sad!!

It's not all bad news - I got asked for ID by the chick at Dan Murphy's tonight

[Gralin]

I'm never getting asked ID again other than by a cop

 

[Gough]

Last time I was asked for ID was at a BDO in 2009/10. I hadn't brought anything because I tended to get shit faced and lose things at things like that, and being in my mid 30s at the time I hadn't foreseen it as an issue. I ended up saying to the bird that if she genuinely thought I was under 18 don't give me a wristband I'll still have a good soak anyway, and she kindly changed her mind.
