Another day another airport

Got back from Dublin on Saturday.

Today I'm off to Switzerland via Luton Airport. It's a business trip but if I told you who I'm meeting (and why) I'd have to shoot myself.

All will be revealed in due course. (Teaser: we're meeting at Casa del Habano, Bleicherweg 18, Zurich.)

Business done I'm going to visit my aunt and one or two cousins who I last saw in 2011 when I took my family to Zurich by car. I wrote about it here:

Good Friday in Switzerland

And here: Homeward bound.

See also: Swiss stay reasonable.

I'm told it can be very hot in Switzerland at this time of year but I checked the BBC website yesterday and it predicted moderate temperatures, heavy rain and high humidity all week.

No sitting on sunny patios or balconies for me, then.

Thanks a bunch.

PS. Just been told the person I am meeting doesn't speak English and I don't speak his language.

This should go well.

Is it Fidel? About the Cuban complaint to WTO on plain packaging? See if you can get a couple of Behikes for me.

I wish! Unfortunately Fidel is not well enough to travel, or so his brother tells me.

Thanks, Mark. If I'm ever in or around Geneva I'll be in touch. It would be good to meet up.
