Well, There was a brief and only slightly tearful goodbye at Heathrow this morning. My luggage was too heavy so I had to pay £108 in excess baggage fees, Gits. The flight here was perfect. i was feeling quite glum at the beginning but towards the other side of the north sea I started to perk up.
Last night I had barely any sleep. I went to bed about 10.30pm, woke up at midnight, woke up at 2.15, woke at 3.30, woke up at 4.45 and FINALLY got up at 5am. Let's hope this means I can have a good kip on the plane. Have got a sudden fear that I should be wearing a suit when I arrive. This had crossed my mind, but I thought it seemed uinreasonable to expect me to sit for an entire day in polyester blend material. I was 'randomly' searched at Heathrow. Probably something to do with the big boots. ANyway, I had to take my boots and coat off and stand in a varity of stupid positions while someone x-rayed me. What they failed to notice was the tin of Vaseline I'd accidently put in my rucksack. So much for airport security. Still, no chapped lips for me.
