sorry to threadjack (top pic by the way)Well, I'm back from the states. Started travelling at 6:30am Pacific time on Tuesday, and finally got home about 6:00pm British Summer Time yesterday. Transatlantic flights really do screw with your body, don't they? Went to bed when I got in last night, and woke at 7:30 this morning.

Jet lag!Hateful. I only really experienced it for the 1st time a couple of years ago, coming back from Sri Lanka. Like being on drugs, and not very good ones...

When the pilot says "This is Captain Smith in the cockpit"I like to shout "No! Not Captain Smith! Not Vodka Smith with the shaky hands/invisible friends/voices that only he can hear!" That livens things up no ends, and introduces a playful air to calm the nerves of those who are scared of flying.
