7 hours of tedium ahead

I’m sat in the Northwest Lounge at Boston’s Logan Airport and I’m annoyed that I’ve had to pay for the Wi-Fi here despite having paid for the use of the lounge. Stroppy letter time.

I’ve got seven hours of tedium ahead of me as I fly back across the Atlantic. If the in-flight “entertainment” (and I use that word loosely) is as exciting as the way out here, I’ll be buying a second iPod to be sure I always have a spare! There wasn’t a single film I’d heard of, and the other passsengers in my row were either French or uncommunicative.

Of course, there’s always the exciting in-flight menu. It’s a pretty safe choice that there’ll be a choice of a “brunch” or something with pasta in it for the hot meal.

While we’re on the subject, two flying blogs I enjoy reading are Cockpit Conversation and  Flight Level 390.  Both worth a look if flying interests you, or just if you spend lots of time on planes.
