See you, wouldn't wanna be EU

 I've written previously (Can't be bothered to hunt for the link right now) about being in the huge passport queue leaving Corfu airport, where the woman behind us said 'Thanks Brexit'. I got my jollies by asking her if this was her first time in Corfu airport (it was), and telling her that it's a small, busy airport, that can't handle the traffic at busy times. Nothing to do with Brexit
 
Anyhoo, we were just back at Corfu airport, and this time the entry queue after getting off the plane. They put you in a tiny room with the staggered ropes, and there's about three to four guys checking passports, so that takes a while too.
 
They've got one more roped off lane for EU citizens, that basically just lets you jump the queue, but your passport is still checked by the same guys as everyone else
 
While waiting I found myself wondering if there were many people in this queue like that women, who were blaming the queue on Brexit
 
I then wondered if such people were wishing we were still in the EU so we would all be in the queue with no people in it
 
Then I asked myself, would such people make the link and realise that if there were no Brexit, everyone in this queue would be in the same queue, but with a different sign on it, and it would take exactly just as long to get through? 
 
I've said it before and I'll say it again, there were many reason why I voted for Brexit, and the length of passport queues was not among them 
 
But the main reason for this post is just to tell you that we're back in Corfu and loving it
