delayed trip to seville








as you may know. the whitfield xmas trip to seville was cancelled by
british airways, who joined the apple i-pad on my enemies of carlotta list.

in a shock move ryanair came up trumps and a few days later than planned
we were all packed and waiting in the lobby for sick-cabs to take us to stanstead.
we decided to travel light and bought matching muji carry-on cases.
( a special prize will go to whoever identifies which case is mine and gives the
correct reasoning )







i tried for an upgrade on ryanair but they weren't having any of it and put me above 
the wing as usual. ah well, it made for an interesting shot as seville came into view.








at our hotel during check-in, i noted the receptionist's nails... very nice indeed.
he was a very helpful bloke too, and recommended a nearby tapas joint to us.

what ?

  1. Your case is obviously the one on the right as i look at them.
    Look how much more the handle has been stretched due to the extra weight of all the hair product.
    What do I win?

  2. that's a good guess and it almost made me smile, but it's not the reason i was looking for.
    i took very little hair product to seville, and only one pair of kicks too.

    it is of course the bag on the right. look how tidy the bag has been closed. you would never leave the zippers of your bag open! (see left bag)

  5. absolutely spot-on christian,

    the main thing to spot was the zips.

    by the way, the bag on the left also has some bulky items in the front pocket which ruins the line of the case.

    let me know your address and i'll send you a prize.

  6. I'm suitably abashed
