What’s the longest trip you’ve ever taken?

The longest trip I’ve ever taken,

Is to a place I’d long forsaken,

It used to be my home and had many

rememberances

Childhood thoughts and sentimental resonances,

You see it was a trip I had to make,

To a place I thought I knew and wasn’t fake,

Now having made it I realise,

That place has gone and I can’t reprise,

Go back in time and  no matter  how much I

strive,

I start my trip but I can never arrive.

What’s your best tip for budget travel?

Crikey,well what is budget travel?

There’s so many clauses and catches to unravel,

I picked up my plane ticket Online,

From a nice friendly man who gave the name of

Ryan,

It seems all I bought was space for one  foot,

And  to get a seat they needed more loot,

For on a  plane there is no standing,

Apparently it ruins take-offs and landings

And at the airport I paid a fee,

Even terminal dropping off is not free,

So travelling on a budget is it possible anymore?

I suppose for most the point is sore,

Even pensioners now cannot guarantee,

That their  bus pass will remain free.

Who is your favorite cartoon character?

How does your mindset affect your financial success?

Some find money a bore,

And managing it such a chore,

Others never leave the house,

Without checking the contents of their purse,

And if  their shares have risen today,

Or from their boss they need  a rise in pay.

Times  they seem to be so  tough,

Our   planned Economy is in the rough

It’s no time to purchase anything new,

For dinner perhaps vegetable stew,

To answer your question is such a wheeze,

My mindset tells me that I must squeeze,

Every cent  out of every dollar

Just to keep my head up above the water,

I suppose that doesn’t help Society’s growth,

Still I trust me more than the  Politician’s oath

If your pet could talk, what would be the first thing it says?

Our dog talks to us all the time,

He’s only quiet when things are fine,

However if there is something odd or maybe

amiss,

Then I guarantee it will make him hiss,

Well maybe it’s more of a humph or groan,

I’m so glad he doesn’t have a mobile phone,

Complaints would be rampant and orders rife,

Our lives would turn bitter and full of strife,

Instead he turns his back to us,

All because we didn’t make a fuss,

When that ball we threw he proudly fetched,

Then a mouth of sand he duly retched,

It was all our fault we’re beside the sea,

He really only likes the big country,

With lots of trees and a little lake,

Why are we here for Heaven’s sake.

Oh yes I know his conversation well,

At the moment he’s fuming and we can go to hell!

Have you ever regretted reading a book — which one and why?

I don’t think Catcher in The Rye was for me,

Perhaps too close to home it turned out to be,

A confused youth who misses the point,

An adolescent who gets sick having a joint,

Rejects the World as full of phonies,

While his dad makes money backing dead cert

ponies,

His World is there to explore,

Misinterpreting Burns is such a bore,

There was no truth ,

Just misspent youth,

The truth is you can’t escape,

And life happens and isn’t fake.

What’s the best and worst airport you’ve been to?

I’ve been have been to more  airports than I thought. I liked them all.My first flight was with Aer Lingus when I was five. I flew  with my aunt to Dublin from what was  then Abbotsinch,later renamed Glasgow Airport. Dublin Airport was beautiful and still is.

Think I flew from Glasgow Airport to the Isle of Man,don’t remember much about the Airport at the Isle of Man.All airports are exciting though.So it wasn’t bad.

I’ve been to Heathrow,Gatwick and Bristol Airport.Must have arrived at  Girona- Costa Brava Airport too on a 18-30 holiday in Lloret de Mar.Oh and a sneaky trip to Edinburgh Airport to deliver something for a Company I worked for

All in all I look at Air Travel as  really  glamorous ,so Airports are glamorous. I don’t travel very often and intend to keep it that way and keep my misty-eyed love of airports!

What’s the most annoying trope in books or movies?

Being ditsy is a male and female thing,

Except in Hollywood it has a different ring.

On one side Goldie and Marilyn play dumb

blondes

While Sellers and Myers play loveable clowns,

Women used their benevolent charms

While men shoot pool and win the blondes arms,

OK the game doesn’t always go their way,

But you know from the beginning they’ll win the

day,

Tony Curtis and Peter Sellers were complex men,

But on film they always got the girl at the end.
