Golden hour at Somerset House, London, April 2022
Apologies for my late post this morning. My flight home last night was seriously delayed by strikes, weather and digging up the runway! But home now!
Now over to all of you. Do come and join us in our Saturday six-word musings.
I’ll admit that many of us openly break the numeric rule and share far more words (all excellent of course!) so the key rule is to have a title of six words – and then create around that the post that you desire! Perhaps in bunches of 6 words if you’re feeling inspired.
To join the challenge, please put a link in your post to the URL of this post. Then come back here and leave us a comment. If you have any problems with linking, just put your own URL into the comment. And do feel free to socialise digitally – tweet, instagram, flickr, etc. with the hashtags #SixWordSaturday and #6WS.

Even later than my flight 😉
But promptness never matters for this challenge

Travel delays and arriving home in the middle of the night is the sort of thing my kids (age 35 and 37) can handle without collapsing the next day but not me. So you are doing well to get this post up at all.

Well, at least you are home. Exhausted must be but safe and sound.
And speaking of planes, I picked up an old photo from my archive for this week and drafted my post, without checking your post first 🙂

Sounds like a rough night. Glad you are home safely! Perhaps this giant’s footfalls tore up the runway? https://fakeflamenco.com/2023/08/26/how-a-giant-knits-and-pearls/

Flying seems to be a mug’s game these days. I’ve heard so many awkward stories recently. But you’re home!

Yes. We knew this flight was a bit risky being bank holiday with risk of Uk airport staff striking and airline cancelling. But none of that happened, just 3 other things. Which shows you’re right about flying being rather challenging at the moment. But I was very impressed with EasyJet who let the many children in board go and visit the flight deck and take photos while we sat on the ground waiting to leave. And delivered drinks without being asked.

That sounds excellent. And unusual. Good on them!

‘Digging up the runway’ is a new one on me – which airport was doing that?!

Gatwick. Fancy doing that on a bank holiday. They were doing it at night but even a few seconds of thought would have said it was highly likely there’d be lots of delayed flights coming in. Having only the backup runway available meant that many flights were circling over the channel at 2 in the morning.

Madness – although I guess whatever time they chose would cause problems for some people!

haha! No, just flying over French airspace which poses a variety of challenges these days.
