A tough 24 hours

Image
We arrive at 2am at Tullamarine and following the usual internal cavity search we lodge ourselves into the lounge area. On board we are showered with gifts to top up our non-dwindling supply of various aromatic body salves, balms and fragrant lotions. We also stock up on "health bars", nuts, toothbrushes, shaving kits and ear wax removers.My on board suitcase is now bulging with all these goodies. Don't believe this is all luxury-at one stage we had to make do with non-vintage champagne-oh the horror!!!!! With the assistance of the pharmaceutical industry and a wide range of alcoholic beverages we manage some shut eye en route to Dubai. In Dubai we have our complimentary spa treatment; I opt for the Thai invigorating massage; that which does not kill me makes me strong. We have a pleasant lunch and then it on board to Munich which includes a shower at 30000 feet. We arrive exhausted at our hotel and fall into a deep sleep for about 4 hours
