I read recently that an airline wants to offer in-flight weddings. They are calling it the 'Mile High weddings club'. I can't see it catching on. There's no room for a meringue dress in the gangway let alone for the Father-of-the-Bride to walk alongside. And what if you run into turbulence? Who in their right mind wants to say their vows amidst a rustle of sick-bags?
The name 'Mile High Club' brings back vague memories of sleaze stories and Wikipedia bears this out. It refers to in-flight sexual experiences. Not that I have any personal experience of this you understand. My husband is so terrified of flying he needs the entire church to pray for him before we go away. Afterwards they all want a blow by blow account of the journey. Even if he did recover sufficiently to get a twinkle in his tightly shut eyes I think it'd be more information than the average congregation could handle!
We're flying off on Thursday to Spain to a wedding and I'm sure we'll enjoy the sunshine when we land on terra firma. At this moment he's in total denial so I'm left to do all the organising. Hopefully he won't repeat past exeriences and smuggle work folders into his suitcase. Even high-flying workaholics have to switch off sometimes.
You never know - someone might even be tying the knot as we fly. Hopefully they'll save the honeymooning till later!
HOLA
