A woman got so smashed at a christening ceremony that she ended up taking a flight to Ibiza.
Rachael Wynn, from Salford, boarded a jet heading toward the Spanish island without giving it a second thought. At the time, she had nothing with her except her bank card and passport. When the 32-year-old returned to Manchester a few days later, she was £700 ($860) lighter.
Now that she’s back home, Rachael thinks her impulsive decision was a mistake.
“I was at a christening and it was also my friend’s birthday that day so I went to my friend’s afterward,” Rachael told the Manchester Evening News.
“My friends were already here in Ibiza and asked if I wanted to come. I’ve come out here with the clothes on my back, my bank card and my passport.
“I can’t remember it, I was still loving life at the airport. It’s the stupidest thing I have ever done. I’m not like this usually. I’ve never done anything like this.
“I was p*****. I was absolutely p*****. I had been drinking all day at this christening. When I got on the plane I thought ‘what have I done?'”
When Rachael got back to her senses, she made desperate attempts to book a flight back to England. She knew she was supposed to be at work – but it was too late.
“I tried so hard to get a flight back yesterday (Monday),” she said. “I had to ring my boss and explain and say I had a flight on Wednesday.
“He said I had to get a flight sooner than that. I managed to book one for this (Tuesday) morning but they emailed to say there were no flights left.
“I booked another for tonight (Tuesday) to go via Frankfurt but they didn’t send me the tickets in time. I’ve now got a flight tomorrow (Wednesday).
“My boss was not happy at all but he’s alright now I think. He’s a great boss and it’s a great company to work for. He will be disappointed but hopefully he’ll see the funny side.
“The only reason I went is because I thought I’d be able to get home in time for work. I feel really bad about it.”
While Rachael’s boss might not yet see the funny side of the things, her mate Kristina Wilkinson finds her ordeal to be hilarious.
Kristina, who dropped Rachael at the christening ceremony, told the Manchester Evening News: “Everyone is calling her crazy and I’ve personally never known anything like it. It’s so funny.
“She said ‘I’ve got work in the morning and when it escalates I’m going home.’ She usually does.
“I was at work the next day and sent her a message asking ‘did you get to work okay?’ and she replied and said: ‘mate I’m in Ibiza.’
“I couldn’t believe it so she sent me a little video with palm trees. She was laughing but she said ‘my boss is going mad and if I’m not in work tomorrow I’m getting sacked.'”
