Deja vu all over again.
England/Wales, summer 1990 ..... "We can't go in here, it's too
quiet/noisy/cold/hot/smoky*".
* Pick one at random. Grrrr!
That and the company of a panicky flier. She asked the pilot if these
planes crashed often,
and he replied "no just the once".
In the interests of full disclosure I have to admit that I made this
exchange up.
Everything else is true though.
I, however would be delighted to sit alone in a pub all/every day. I'm
obviously quite the catch.
Regards,
Tony
