Seven years ago Ryanair had regular flights from the Balaton to London so I asked my new partner if she would like to fly there with me ... And I found out that Steve Winwood whom I've admired for almost 50 years now was giving a concert in a venue near St Pancras (forgot the name) so we just went there that evening and waited in line to ask if tickets were still available ... And we were lucky! I still remember that I showed her around St Pancras and told her about the channel link trains ... We would have come again to London (one of my sisters lives in Sussex) - but bloody Ryanair stopped the connection!
Thank you, Jonathan!
