And the hits keep on coming. The instrument panel may not have been flashing 12 but I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the plane. Its something called a Saab 340 and it carries 40 pax. I thought a Saab was a car that usually takes a family on a picnic not flying 40 pax and their luggage at 7,000 feet.
I got onboard and discovered like many others that the overhead locker was only capable of storing a sparrow and therefore we had to give our hand luggage to an Air Estonia employee. I remembered to take out my wallet but my passport and lap dancer computer is still in there. Therefore someone called Igor may as we speak telling Immigration he is John Heald and he is trying to get into my computer……….I doubt he will though as I have a password protection thingy on it…….which by the way if and when we land and my lap top dancer computer is not on its way to Igor’s house I will change it to I love Air Estonia.
Ok, I have been told to switch of my raspberry as it could interfere with the planes instruments……..yep……..that’s what everyone sitting in this thing should worry about most, not the fact that its powered by a hamster in heat chasing a female hamster in one of the wheel things…….they should be worried about my raspberry
What a load of bullocks
More later………I hope

John, Dave and I have a saying when we travel. “Sometimes you get the bear, sometimes the bear gets you” I think you have had enough of the bear getting you and it is time for him tio bugger off. Hang in there hopefully it will get better soon. Now you really know how we feel when we finally get to our cruiseship after dealing with airplanes and airports. Travelling isn’t for whimps. Hang in there.

Air Estonia – check. Will not be flying with them. (Not sure that was ever going to happen – but, check anyway.) Hope your passport and lap dancer thingy are in tact when you arrive.
Hi John/Heidi:
Making progress i see. At least its 40 passengers. That isn’t so bad. I like your hamster analogy though. I’m going to have to use that in the future.
Good luck!

John:
Before Saab made automobiles, they made jets. In fact, the first Saab automobile was designed and built by 16 aircraft engineers.
I’m not sure what that says about Saab automobiles, let alone aircraft, but I thought you might feel a bit better (retroactively) about your jaunt in the Saab aircraft.
