Isn't it painful?  Or do you use nasal pre-heaters or other forms of
exhaled air heat recovery?  I have breathed air as low as 5 C, and
found it quite agonising, as if my nose was being frozen from the
inside.

The first time I heard it, it was.  The Arabic prayers lasted most of
the way while taxying out to take off.  The tape was very worn and
scratchy, but it must have still worked, as we took off safely.  The
wines served with meals on that plane were all non-alcoholic, which
gave me an idea what the situation was like in Brunei.

In spite of the excesses of the Sultan's brother, that country is
still very rich, with a high standard of health and education.  After
living in some much poorer countries, it was surprising to see a lady
street sweeper chatting on her cell-phone.

"Night-life" in the capital, Bandar Seri Bagawan, finished at 9 pm,
except for one Internet Cafe, which stayed open until 11 pm.
