W/C 6th April 2026
As we were driving to Manchester Airport last week we realised we had left the newly-purchased suncream at home. Even though we had only been travelling a few minutes we decided not to turn back, but risk picking some up at the departure lounge, irrespective of the fact it would probably be at an eye-watering supplement.
As it turned out it was pretty much the same as buying from Boots on the high street, and another thing I noted was that the coffee and sandwich that I got from Pret was not only the same cost, but I was able to get my Club Pret discount. So kudos to everybody at T2 for not taking advantage of those passing-through.
Surprisingly, and in sharp contrast, it cost eleven euros for 2 small cervazas on the way back - which is exactly what I wasn't expecting in GC. This was followed by sixty-five euros for a family Burger King (there really wasn't much more in the way of choice) which really did seem like profiteering.
A tale of two departure lounges.
Stay safe.

Therapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.
If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.
