Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....

Ugh, why is it that planes take off at some ungodly hours of the morning and there is this need to be at the airport, at least two hours before take off.

After what seemed to be an incredibly short week, our friends Les & Jill are going back home to UK. They only came for my birthday bash, but say they have enjoyed every minute of their stay. I suppose that even if they had stayed a bit longer we would still have all had to get up at 4 a.m. one morning soon.

The next time that Joan will see them will be when she goes over in September, to join Les on his Kawasaki weekend in Holland. On that note, we looked on the airline websites for flight tickets, about two weeks ago and came up with a return ticket at £200.00. Since then of course there has been all the hue and cry about oil prices, so when we came to look again and make a firm booking, the price had gone up to £280.00. Should have booked three weeks ago.
