Subject: RE: Reports from our Brussels correspondent
Bron - yes, yesterday I had some big problem with my back, my damaged slip-disk had decided to give me trouble!

Ok, as promised, a bit more information about my flight back home:

after lovely Glen delivered me to the airport, I immediately found a trolley, so I did not have to carry my bag to the check-in counter (which greatly helped my back).

Then came a little shock: the man at the checkin said I was not booked on that plane (but I had the ticket to prove it). He was able to sort it out and find me a place on the plane - quite easy, there were only two other passengers...

When boarding, the 4 stewardesses asked the 3 of us, if we'd like to stay in the first-class part of the plane - we did not complain.
It was a great experience - such a lot of space for my legs...
And it was great for my back as well - the seats are much more comfortable.
Almost lying on my back plus the vibrations due to some turbulence seemed to work together to sort out the bones and slipdisk.

After arrival in Munich I had no more problem with the back.


Ok, so much about me.

Thanks, Richard and Patricia for organising this great weekend.
Thanks everyone who helped!
Thanks everyone for the beautiful music (instrumental and singing)!
Thanks for giving me some more motivation to keep on torturing my neighbours with my whistling!
Thanks thanks thanks ...

Looking forward to the next meeting!
