Home at last...

It's only when you leave this Country that you realise how good it is - how beautiful the countryside is and how much we have in terms of personal freedom and social welfare.

I have just spent two weeks relaxing in southern Turkey. The weather was excellent, one day the tempeture rose to 52 degrees 'C'. The locals, on the whole, were friendly and everything was well priced.

It is good to be home though. The end of our holiday was marked by a 16 hour delay because the plain engine had broken down, so 180 of us were put into hotel accomodation for the night. I'd seen these kind of things happen on TV programmes such as Airport and Airline but you never think it'll happen to you. I have to say Thomas Cook dealt with the situation very well and I will definately be flying with them again in the future.
