According to the excellent Coldplay song, Don't Panic, apparently "We live in a beautiful world, yeah we do, yeah we do", and I concede that point. Mostly.
Thoughtfully though, Aer Lingus have just awarded me with a very generous 90 minute delay to my flight to Dublin this evening. Presumably with good reason, like a loose engine or wing or something.
But, as they say, every cumuli nimbus has a sliver of Starbucks blueberry swirl cheesecake and a nice cuppa' arabica to ease the pain.
And a freebie copy of The Times, the front cover of which serves no useful purpose other than to remind me of just how stupendously fortunate I am.
