[kj] Concorde...

Hey Jane, it's a sad affliction and worth nipping in the bud ... to be fair,
I've had a few people come up to me over the couple of weeks and I just
can't summon up the enthusiasm ... mind you, the fact that I live under the
flightpath to LHR has probably got something to do with it ... it seems a
bit crazy that the relevant authorities can't extend the deadline beyond the
centenary of flight (9th December 2003) but that's just typical of lost
opportunities ...  anyway, I've got this Friday off work, when the last
official BA Concorde flights return to LHR but I'll be spending the day
looking after my 17 year old daughter Danielle ... I just hope she's
recovered from the Killing Joke gig (Sunday) at the Astoria ... after her
only previous gigs, the Spice Girls and 5ive, it was a bit of an education !

Regards,

Antoni

... just flew past my window on it's last ever flight out of Manchester
Airport.

I'm not normally a plane-spotter, but it felt like a significant moment in
history, Jane
