After around 24 hours of flight time I am finally in the UK. What a trip... Oh yeah, did I mention that I managed to get myself an Emergency row seat? 4+ metres legroom. However it did come at a cost, 3 seats across from me was a beautiful baby that didn't stop crying for 15 hours. Small price to pay I suppose. The first leg through to Singapore was interesting to say the least... seat belt sign was on the WHOLE time, and below us for a few hours was what looked like to be qutie an intense lightning storm. Oh well, we made it at least...
First 3 days here I spent in lovely sunshine... yes the sun does come out every now and then. But as I am typing now, it is a nice balmy 3 degrees and grey. I am currently staying above a lovely pub called the Pig N Whistle... dangerous being that close. I have spent most of my time so far holding on to a pint glass. Its amazing, every second Pom drinks Fosters here...
Anyways enough rambling on, here are a couple of pics so far. One of my vast amount of legroom, my pack fully loaded (18kgs) and another of Dubai Internation airport at 5:30am. Place is insane, don't think I want to go back there anytime soon. Will update everyone over the next few days as I might actually do something.
