Home – Almost

Well, I’m almost home, sitting in Heathrow airport waiting for my connecting flight back home. If I had to pick a word to describe the flight from SFO to Heathrow it would probably be ‘dreadful’. I had the unfortunate combination of -

  • No air-conditioning working in the aisle I was in, it was like sitting in a furnace for the entire trip.
  • My video screen wasn’t working, so I couldn’t watch the in-flight films.
  • I had someone sitting infront of me who just LOVED to bounce back and forward in their seat, hitting my knees everytime I drifted to sleep.
  • The worlds most unhappy baby sitting 2 seats away from me, screamed all the way back…at times I felt like joining in.

Well at least the next flight is only an hour or so…what can possibly go wrong?

    Ohh boy!! I would have asked for an other seat!

    Hope your next flight was a bit better, because when you’re at home, that famous jet-lag comes along ;-)

    I’m back in Belgium. My trip was fine, but I couldn’t sleep that well in the plain, so I’m really tired now…

    Unfortunately the plane was full, so there weren’t any other seats to move to.

    Glad to hear your trip back was better than mine (not difficult!), yeah the jetlag caught up with me too ;)

    John,
    do you remember what Igor said to Dr. Frankenstein while they were digging out the corpse of the monster?

    It could be worse… it could rain!
