Geoff, we all miss you so much, your classic comments and the way you could make me roll on the floor with laughter.
I remember this one time our flight was cancelled due to the weather so we drove, and drove, and drove untill we got to some desolate airport like practically in Germany. And when we got on the plane, we were trying to decide which side of the cockpit the captain sat in. But Geoff was insistent that he sat on the right, but we all knew he sat on left ;)
So when we asked the flight attendant, she confirmed that the captain did sit on the left.
And then that started a whole load of laughter because Geoff suggested that because the captain was english he flew on the right side!
So we had a great time wondering whether we were flying on "the right side of the air!"
We all loved you very much xxx
