LONDON 2012 MASCOTS:

BARCELONA 1992 MASCOTS: COBI AND PETRA. Petra my favourite forever! Tall and skinny she used to introduce herself as "Hello! I´m Petra! I have no arms!" with the biggest smile on her face!

MALAWI

Sentenced 14 years for being gay. This photo is terrifying. Why is the woman with the baseball cap laughing? What is the man in red saying? Shameful. Read more on the bbc news:

A judge in Malawi has imposed a maximum sentence of 14 years in prison with hard labour on a gay couple convicted of gross indecency and unnatural acts.
The judge said he wanted to protect the public from "people like you".
Steven Monjeza, 26, and Tiwonge Chimbalanga, 20, have been in jail since they were arrested in December after holding an engagement ceremony.

Royal Palace, Madrid

Plaza Puerta del Sol

Km. 0. From this point on the floor at the Puerta del Sol in Madrid all the National Roads in Spain start. It is their km zero.

Eyjafjallajökull continues playing... according to some sources this rantic behaviour could last all summer! And one of his previous eruptions in the 1800´s provoked a very cold winter...

In the meantime, volcanic ash effects on ATC and strikes will keep me busy for looooooooong hours at work so there´ll be no time left for travelling or going out, no time for sex either!

BOAC!

I AM A PILOT!

Today I have flown a plane for the first time in my life!!! Stapleford Aerodrome. One hour flight around the Thames estuary and the east of England... Flight Instructor Paddy took off and leveled the Piper Warrior and then gave me the controls... It is fantastic, up and down, and left and right... it is the most powerful drug... Paddy did some steep turns, we felt the G-force on our brains -and estomach- and wheightlessness when engine stalled and went down quick... memorable... forever thank you Paddy!

First lesson: how to get in the plane! Angela being all strapped in.
