The unexpected turns out ok... things that you

think oh st, ah well I need to do it but Im going to regret doing it.

Got To Helsinki and thanks to the flight being late I missed my connection flight to Tampere, so was thinking I could get a hotel and then the morning flight... But no the morning flight is actually an afternoon flight, so Finnair offered me a taxi all the way to Tampere, 2 bloody hours!!

So reluctantly take that and get a travelling companion a local Finn, thinking oh great here comes some rivoting conversation and 2 hours of it, but need to do it to see the OH.

Turns out the travelling companion is the local fezza, lambo and porker expert and winner of the ferrari challenge cup in Scandinavia a couple of times, so in a country of 5 million were most dont have much to say at all... I get stuck with one of the biggest petrolheads in the country, have to say that it was a fun trip and 2 hours just past in what seemed like minutes, not often I get to speak with racing drivers and captive ones at that...

Now for fun in the snow.

(yes I delibrately did not mention his name but Im sure some people will find him)

I had the exact opposite of your situation.
GOt stuck in a taxi by the airline with what purpoted to be a riveting Brit and his jolly humour.
Most boring bd I have ever met in my life.
Made my wife sound interesting.
Two hours seemed like an eternity.
Plus he tried to touch me.
