Travel Jones

This morning a letter dropped through my mailslot, or what ever you like to call it. The time was around 09.30. My head was still a bit heavy after a good night of alcool consuming, but I was able to make out the label on the letter: "Kilroy Travels". At that point, I had a pretty good idea of the content of the letter. Indeed, a few moments later I was holding in my hands a pair of tickets, or rather a wad of tickets with all kinds of strange markings and numbers and codes and such. I was able to decipher some of the numbers and words to reach the conclusion that these tickets would get me on the right flight to Sapporo. Nice. The travel fever is finally starting to kick in as I'm looking at the tickets. Concerete evidence of my forthcoming exile...Yes, you could say I'm eager to leave this place called Oulu. It's nothing dramatic, just ultimate boredom.
