It was an early start this morning. I was up before six and we were out of the door by seven.
The dogs were loaded into the Defender along with a mountain of food and a selection of beds. It was then a quick run in to Redditch to drop them off at the Boarder's house.We then retraced our steps to let the chickens out, pick up our bags and swap cars.
By eight thirty we were heading towards Heathrow. It was a trouble free drive and we were parked and entering Terminal 2 before the eleven o'clock.
It was at this point that I encountered the general public and it appears that most of them had never experienced a lift* before. Fuck me! There were only 5 floors. How the hell do you manage to cock that up? In my eight months of retirement I'd forgotten about stupid people.
Anyway, I'm now sat at an altitude of 11,200 metres with an airspeed close to 900 kph. Zagreb is off to my left and we should land in Cairo in two and a half hours.
I'm not sure how often I will be able to post in The Journal, but I'll do my best. As for pictures, you'll just have to wait until I get home.
