Boom. Rungood initiated.
Plane kisses the tarmac at 1344, I make the (hourly) bus at 1355 - strong!
Edit: free wifi on the bus and the sun is out - life heater confirmed.
Pics or it didn't happen.
All arrived at the accommodation. Nit that I am I've booked myself a room at Corrib Village, which is normally student accommodation. How anyone at a campus university is expected to seduce a partner for the first time in rooms like this I will never know. Here is a shot of the room I find myself in:
For context, here is a room I once got taken back to whilst at University (thin, I know, I know):
And here, more pertinently, are a couple taken en route on the coach from Shannon Airport and then on the walk to the campus:

Now time for a quick chill/nap/shower before heading to the poker village to arrive c45mins before the first buses back from the races.

South Ealing and Mansion House.
Some recriprocals for your flight:
1. Give me a nine letter, one syllable word.
2. What connects
inept, dissaray, inadvertent, innocent, dismay, unthinkable
and
impeccable
(and others)?
3. Who is the only US President whose full name includes all of the letters of the word
criminal
? (I'm not including Clinton, as his real surname at birth was Blythe)
1. Scrunched? It has to be something like this though whether 'scrunched' is technically one syllable I'm not sure.
2. Will keep thinking.
3. Abraham Lincoln
Only league football club of which none of the letters, when the name is written in the traditional mix of upper and lower case, can be 'coloured in'?

For you perhaps, but then you did invent trivia
Okay then... how about this. I have recounted this story to any number of people and only one noticed the same curiosity I did, doing so immediately.
"I went to a Sam Smith's pub in London (a well priced, non-brand type establishment) and ordered 6 pints of lager. The bill was £12.96."
What is so 'neat' about that (other than it being bloomin' cheap for London town)?

I will muse
Sam Smiths': Yorkshire's finest etc etc

Perfectly happy with scrunched as being a single syllable. Nicely done.

Thank you. I just copied Tal. When in doubt, copy Tal, & argue with Tom. Never fails.
I saw your Dad on Friday & Saturday, he semed to be in fine fettle, & carefree. Almost as if a problem was about to go away.

Ed has not posted for four hours which means;
a) is deeply involved in a splashy cash game where he is winning so much he hasn't time to stack his chips and recount hand histories to both readers of this blog. [ ]
b) has met Dave Nicholson and decided to have a few beers and has now no recollection of why he is in Galway [ ]
c) has retired to his student gigs with the realisation that he has not taken enough money to survive 5 days in the company of 200,000 Irish blokes in Galway for a weeks racing and 'the craic'. [ ]
Meanwhile I remain in Marylebone watching the clock countdown to Wednesday when I hopefully catch the big silver bird myself. Just when he probably thought it would be safe to go out.
