Sunshine, Lollipops & Transat

People often describe me using ‘C’ words, Pumpkins. Years ago they were adjectives like comely, curvaceous and concupiscent, while today they tend to veer towards crusty, cranky and curmudgeonly. But I do have a soft side, dahrlings, and it’s not…

What’s Colour Got To Do With It?

Someone sent me an email showing a frustrated looking Sikh saying “Hey, Dude! We’re the 7-11 guys, not the 9/11 guys!” That says it all, doesn’t it? We westerners really are such a dim lot when it comes to skin…

Et Tu WestJet?

According to our American cousins at ASTA, WestJet has relocated to the U.K., Pumpkins. They reported it in their aptly named ‘SmartBrief’ and I quote “Low-cost British carrier WestJet will eliminate its seat-back entertainment systems for flights longer than three…
