    They've been doing that for 30 years now though. It's only old buggers like you and me that remember when it wasn't the norm. We went to Spain in 1969 which was very unusual at that time.

    That's because they had no chuffin' planes back then. And if you ventured overseas there was the risk of pirates and scurvy.
