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
