Austria...what
a meeting!
For
some it started on Thursday early morning, Mandy & Nigel arrived in Salzburg, where they were collected and driven to Spittal. Area 30 girls sat on the runway
at Stanstead for 2 hours before leaving on a jet plane to Salzburg to then
catch a train to Spittal...whereas,
Area 28
girls, myself and Rhian were sleeping on Stanstead’s airport floor until Friday
morning because Rhinoair said we could not fly...wind high!
After,
singing ourselves to sleep and recruiting to circlers to City of London, we eventually left Stanstead to Graz at 11.10am only 19 hours late!
A
further 2 ½ hour drive finally saw us at our hotel in Spittal, where we were
whisked away after a quick shower up into those beautiful hills for a great
Friday night party!
Singing,
dancing, friendship – everything that Ladies Circle is about was there!
The weekend was a great success - but, as dedicated circlers of travel we
would like you to heed to the following instructions when packing a case for a
Mid Term Meeting:
- Sense of
Humour ESSENTIAL though could exceed baggage allowance if not careful!
- Valid
booking pass
- Bottle of
Brandy
- Screwdriver
- Ladies
Circle Carrier bags, membership leaflets – induction kits, pins in fact a
direct debit mandate!
- Spare
underwear in hand luggage
- Lie Detector
kit
Other
tips that we found useful for International travelling are...
- Watch out
when flying Rhinoair!
- Weigh
baggage carefully and keep night watch to see if weight increases without
opening zips!
- Diplomatic
head not zebedee head needed when approaching any type of airport staff
- Little Red
Riding Hood’s Granny...watch ‘em their crafty!
- Ensure you
have as much TIME on your hands as possible!
- The ability
to drink duty free instantly as cannot re-embark through customs with liquids
again……..!
