Richard and Hala together. I've missed you.

Okay, Christmas... gods, spirits, whatever. I haven't been in a very seasonal mood lately, and it hasn't quite been my year, but I must say, it's too late for Thanksgiving, but thank you.

Did anyone else see Hala and Richard at CNN London? So, thank you Boeing 787, and thank you, BA unions, because that meant the developing stories were both related in detail by our dearest Quest.

(Sorry, BA passengers. Hope those negotiations go well for your sake.)

No, I don't have screencaps yet, but Thot has video, and I leave you with this little gem that reminds me why I loved BizNews so much:

(on the Boeing 787 test flights)
Hala: I was told we have 90 seconds left, that was a minute ago.
Richard: Try not to get too excited.
Hala: I can't help it, Richard. It's a plane taking off.

It's not quite "there is a world outside the Richard Quest universe", but it'll do. I've missed Hala's dry wit.



... She's hosting the first Inside The Middle East for 2010, so don't miss that.
