Flamin' Military Time

---

Thanks to Ed Cannan not teaching his son the importance of reading military time, we were turned away from the check-in desk at Sydney airport for arriving 5 hours too early! Sure we needed to get here early to score Dave a luxurious exit seat to house his mammoth tree trunks for the 9 hour journey to Honolulu, but 5 hours?!?! come oooonnnn!

All was not lost however. We experienced CELEBRITY SIGHTING #1 in the hoax-checkin-line. Paul Mac was immediately ahead of us, slightly balding, mildly grey-speckled and a little bit smelly. Looked as though he'd flown in for a gig, missed a night of sleep and was heading straight back out of Sydney this afternoon. So he COULD have been on our flight to Honolulu, had he been as incapable of reading 24 hour time as good ol' Dave. Alas, not so.

Pig names to date: Sweet'n (as in Sweet'n'sow Pork), Hamble, Spamela Anderson, Constable, Wilbur, Porky, Offdebone, Eggs'n.

Question
I must have missed the reason for the pig nameing? Why do you need a name for a pig? Also Dave's lack of talent for military time may be linked with driving manual cars- I'm not so good at both too

I dunno, just thought it would be cool to give the little gal a name. Truth is though, she has hardly seen the light of day! As to why she is journeying with us - Do we need a reason? Who doesn't want to travel with a mini-pig!

I understand now
oh you have taken a soft toy pig with you, I didn't even know that. All makes sense to me now. You don't need a reason at all. It's cute. I expect to see photos of 'the pig' with many world icons.
