Scenes from my desk

Leaving...On a Jet Plane, pt2

OK - the mini eggs are safe for another day...no-one got my location.

It was actually a trick question, as I was only in London :).

I hate these 5am starts...and then into a detailed 5 hour technical design review at Heathrow. I don't think anyone spotted me nodding too badly while trying to keep awake.

I then nipped back to get a bus to the terminal. The bus should be every 10 mins, but it was 30 mins before it turned up...so I was panicking in case I missed my next flight!

Got to check in with 10mins to spare ok. However (and here come the hints) the flight was delayed 50 mins because of snow at the departing airport that it had just come from. So lateness was the theme of the day.

So here's a pic of the next plane...and I was heading off again. This time, out of the UK!

So there is a prize rollover of TWO bags of mini eggs (but not 300 creme eggs - Gillipaw!) for the "Where on earth has Alaistair go to now!". I'm making up for my eco-January.

Despite getting in late - I had arranged dinner with some work aquaintences - and had a very nice meal at a morrocan restaurant (is this a hint or a red herring).

Its very late - and I'm feeling awfully groggy with the 5am start - so off to bed!

Night.
