just wondering

how Iranian President gets to not be on the no-fly list and Cat Stevens does.
Does Iran have a no-fly list that doesn’t have President Bush but has Bob Dylan on it?
Will I ever understand anything about current affairs?
not very good at holidays

a lot more goes into them than one realizes. Lots of internet surfing, map reading, calling (stuff other people must do at work) packing, driving, ‘will they have noted our reservation?’ type anxiety…but in exchange for hilarity of working out washing powder instructions with a Greek dictionary or singing in harmony in the car on the way.
I just want to be teletransported to some nice cheap available sunny place, but despite many attempts involving paperclips and rubber bouncy balls my son has still not mastered the art of intergalactical time travel let alone teletransportation so am going to have to get butt in gear and do it the usual way. But where to go? 12 days left. I can do this. Doh, I just realised, 43places.
