Somewhere above the Irish Sea
Our former Boston bureau chief took this on his flight to England, where he is now living:
As neither the airline meal nor the back of the seat in front of me were worth looking at, I decided to try something else. The after-breakfast dessert of “Love Hearts” (a UK version of Sweethearts) provided me a reminder for thanksgiving for a safe trip (nearly completed) and other blessings recently showered upon undeserving yours truly.
James C. says: MH, you’ll have to pick up the New England VFYT torch. As a matter of fact, I had exactly what you mentioned for supper last night. The venue (a sagging old village pub in Essex) was most suitable for a VFYT, but alas the lighting was not ideal. I’ll keep my eyes open for more photo opportunities.
I will certainly miss Boston, my close friends there especially, but my family is here. My brother works for an airline in London, so I look forward to affordable flights back!
I guess New England wasn’t Englandy enough for him, so he had to go to the real England. Good luck in your new country of residence.
I expect to see some authentic fish and chips coupled with a pint of bitters in a future view from your table.
