Seats in the upright position, armrests down, tray tables folded and window blinds opened, Trudy dimmed the cabin lights for a night flight to FUNchal (oooh...couldn't resist).

Taking time out from a hectic in-flight service, Trudy, in great airline fashion, proceeded to patronise the passengers and give some acidic advice on cosmetics. Poor John got the brunt of this duty free demonstration from Trudy's new range.

It was then a quick stopover in Envy, as Queen Jo and Kate Wildblood took over the controls with a bit of embarkation music.

I'll never fly BA again...

Next departure is on Wednesday 25 May with Fonda Cox as chief stewardess, and every last Wednesday of the month thereafter.
