I'm home from my travels and it's not been fun. I've been thinking about how air travel could be made more enjoyable. I stopped using buses some years ago because it meant mixing with 'the public' and unfortunately in recent years 'the public' have been able to afford to travel by air.

Therefore, in a effort to make air travel more enjoyable I've come up with the following measures for consideration by the airlines.

1. Keep Announcements to a Minimum
Time spent travelling is time I'd like to read or listen to my iPod - if I want to buy perfume or a 'fun card' from the kiosk I'll ask (it's a trolley by the way not a kiosk).

2. No Hot Food
It's usually hot and stuffy on the plane and the smell of a cheese pizza is not going to improve things.

3. Careful Choice of Cold Food
No egg - obviously. Nothing spicy - obviously. Crisps would be OK. Except Cheese and Onion or Prawn Cocktail or Salt and Vinegar. Perhaps just Ready Salted.

4. Adult-Only Flights
As I say, I want to enjoy peace and quiet on my journey, I don't want to hear that the child in the seat 6 rows in front of me needs the toilet. Definition of adult: over 40 years old.

5. No Group Singing
Ever.

6. No 'Lovey-Dovey' Behaviour
Kissing, hand-holding and the like - I won't put up with it at home, why should I put up with it in public?

Radical suggestions - yes, I'll accept that, but something needs to change.

It's good to be back.
