Today I was asked to write an article for my English lesson. It was asked to me about a week ago but of course I wrote it this very morning during my Shell programming lesson (yeah, I love Shell programming).

Here are the instructions of the exercise:

You see this notice in an in-flight magazine and decide to enter the competition.

What forms of transport will we be using in 50 years' time?

Where will we take our holidays?

Write us an article, giving us your views on both of these questions. Science fiction writer John T. Price will choose the most original article, which will receive a prize of $1,000 and be published in our magazine next year.

If I win the prize, I'll make sure to hire an actual artist in order to achieve the redrawing of our sexy header. Long life to the Invisible Pink Licorn and the Flying Spaghetti Monster!
