My favourite airport is Shanghai Pudong, because it sounds like POO DONG. Pure banter.

seanc80 A happy ending in many respects.

    Mad_Cyril I’m a natural, MC. Under the right conditions I could fly a shopping trolley.

      Plenty of weed and some goggles?

      Flying to London Friday in an attempt to circumvent the train strikes.

      Just noticed the Mrs has got the passports out 🤪

        Mad_Cyril I hope you lose your luggage, your flight is cancelled, and you get the rubber glove treatment at security.

          Have you still got the Audi?

            Interestingly, I do need to use my passport to board domestic flights here in China.

            But I don’t think your missus, Ting-Ting Cyril, is Chinese is she?

              BA advise you to take your passport even for domestic flights. I never bother and have never been asked.

                It wouldn’t surprise me if it starts being a requirement due to automatic biometric gatelines.

                It’s the one national biometric document everyone has (or will have), effectively an alternative to a National ID card that many countries have.

                She was post-marked Taiwan when she arrived

                Amps The Audi was replaced with a VW some years back

                Solar powered?

                  Mad_Cyril No, but much better mileage than the Audi, and the next one, probably next year, will defo be an EV.
