One of my fondest memories is accosting Robert Milton wearing only a breast plate. The other breast was flatteringly displayed in a saucer. Well, you can imagine his reaction, Pumpkins. He was shocked, naturally. But he wanted me. His frightened eyes said so. He screamed, just a little, but he held his ground.
An airline man does not waddle into his den and plead for a 911 rescue like a big crybaby. No siree. An airline man takes charge. I shuddered with anticipation. He finally made his move and turned the water hose on me. Ooh! What a man!
Other brave travel men are of note this week. It apparently requires the courage of Ares to enter the realm of ‘keynote speaker’ at the World Travel Market. Witness this chilling headline: Tourism bigwigs may quake in their deck shoes at the thought of speaking at the World Travel Market jamboree. It is being coined the ‘podium of death’ for UK CEO’s. Ill fate befell both Manny Fontenla-Novoa and Dermot Blastland after their addresses. But TUI's current leader, Peter The Long, will not be deterred. By Zeus that’s a travel man! Atta boy Peter. If you need my help I’ll whip on my warrior duds in a jiffy – well, it takes about an hour if I get help with the garters – and fly over! Just say the word!
