Another monster queue at customs at a European city next to deserted lanes for EU members. The delights of Brexit. 🙌🏻
Trying out my #WFCP2022 conference gift, a cooking apron, very original. I am sure my family will be happy if I use it more in the house 😀 (being there would be nice for a start!). @Wfcp2022 @WFCPsecretariat – at San Sebastián, España
