@legsidelizzy @SlimSugar Well, not quite yoga then. There are stretching exercises that are sort of yoga-ish. A physiotherapist will advise and give you a tailored set of exercises.

@chrisbrazz96 @barneyronay Does Jonathan Wilson know Budapest was originally 3 cities - Buda, Pest and Obuda

@SimonCalder I would probably just try a short cruise once, maybe a week.

Anyway, best of luck with your next assignment. We travel junkies need a voice we can rely on.

@rachii1979 @SimonCalder I've been through Alicante 3 times recently and it was very efficient with no delays. I think the storm comes before the calm with EES. It really ought to settle after a while and be easy to navigate but some airports are currently nightmarish!

[Vintage-cynic @down_ken]

@SimonCalder Of the ones I've been through in the last few years, Lisbon, for keeping the 2 of us 90 minutes at passport control, although departing was much easier on that occasion. How about a separate tweet for BEST, with one criterion being speed through passport control

@Sue_Charles My parents had their wedding reception there! Hope you have a great time in NI.

[Vintage-cynic @down_ken]

@GaleSteph @SimonCalder Thanks for the reply. I was hoping the removal of physical passport stamps would mean UK travellers would be in a different line but not necessarily a long line. I guess a large number of UK travellers would still be first timers scanning their prints and slowing things

@GMB Crack down on misuse, like borrowing auntie Doris's badge to park at the airport in a wider space where your doors won't get dinged. Disabled bays in airport car parks are perpetually full, even at slack times of the year.

[Vintage-cynic @down_ken]

@kelvmackenzie Slight tangent, but every time I park in Stansted airport long stay , all blue badge bays are taken, (24 in zone Q) even at slack times when the car park is less than half empty. The incentive to park there is that wider bays mean your doors don't get dinged!!

@JohnCleese Quite a few old-fashioned English gentlemen at the football world cup next month as well.

@BBCMaryam I was actually quite pleased with the 1 point. There's something quintessentially British about heroic failure, and being not terribly good (think Eddie the Eagle -absolute ledge)

[Vintage-cynic @down_ken]

@KevinP184 Thanks. Proper attitude

@Kevin_Maguire Has Andy Birnam Wood marched unto Dunsinane yet?

[Vintage-cynic @down_ken]

@Peston Sounds like another clear and obvious error.

[Vintage-cynic @down_ken]

@soniasodha So who's next then? Angela Ryanair? Or will Andy Birnam Wood march on Dunsinane?

[Vintage-cynic @down_ken]

@IainDale It's either a penalty or a goal. VAR has decided the title and quite possibly relegated a fine club.
