"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain, Charles Mead speaking and I'd like to welcome you aboard this British Airways flight to Nice. Our flying time today will be approximately one hour and fifty-five minutes. The weather forecast is looking favourable, with good visibility and beautiful clear skies. We'll soon be taxied to our runway and it looks as if we shall be taking off slightly ahead of our allotted departure time. The cabin crew will shortly take you through our safety procedures and we would be grateful if you would give your undivided attention, even for those frequent flyers of ours. In the meantime please sit back, relax and enjoy your flight."
Now, just how many times have I heard a flight captain's announcement? And yet here I am again, jetting off to foreign parts and getting paid for it! Perfect, I often wonder if life can really get any better. Well, yes of course it can! I fly an average of two or three times per month, sometimes more and sometimes less, but it goes with the job. This perfect job of mine!
