Fun Card

I found this Inky Antics stamp, it made me laugh. I have a friend who likes to 'match' everything, she once went out dressed (in her mind) rather nattily, with a lot of black and shocking pink. She felt quite good, until she heard a small boy say to his mother

'doesn't that woman look ridiculous mum'

rapid deflation of shocking pink ego.........

So here I am, back in the USA. My sister has come out for a couple of weeks, we travelled together.
On the second leg of the journey (we flew to Newark, then on to Tampa), I was told that I had been upgraded to first class. So as we sat having a coffee in Newark, I bought two doughnuts and magnanimously handed them to my sister. 'These are for you to eat on the plane' I said kindly ' because I am in first class and will probably be dining on caviar and smoked salmon.....'
On the plane I spent the first half an hour trying to work the very complicated multi position chair. I didn't want to look like a person who is not used to travelling in first class, so I hid the instruction leaflet under a blanket and tried to fathom it out, furtively pressing buttons, the chair stayed stubbornly upright, although I could see others relaxing with their feet elevated on a fancy footrest. At this point, a rather camp chap in a navy blue apron sidled up, 'ah, here come the smoked salmon canapes' I thought. No such luck, he just wanted to tell me 'this is a beverage only flight madam, can I get you a beverage'
A cup of coffee appeared, and all of a sudden the doughnuts sitting in the back of the plane seemed quite appetising, so I went in search of my sister, on the pretence of seeing if she was okay, but really to steal a doughnut. Back in the seat, fortified by a few thousand calories, I renewed my attempts to recline my seat. This went on for two hours. As we made the final approach into Tampa airport I must have pressed some hidden button, and the seat became a sort of zig-zag bed, so there I was, with my legs sticking in the air at a rather unbecoming angle, navy apron man bustled up and hissed 'seats must be upright for landing madam'. So madam gave up all pretence of being a first class jet setter, and asked meekly for help.
