Flew in to LHR yesterday on the BA flight from Seattle. Sitting in 62K (62K and A are the best biz class seats on a BA 747). It was my first time in the new seats. Guess what, a few months old and they're already broken. My bed only went flat if I pushed it and the foot rest kept collapsing. Good call guys. At least the Video on Demand worked, which was a first for me. But where the hell did they get the seats? They look cheap and feel worse.
Watched Pirates of the Carribean: World's End and wished I hadn't. At least I don't have to do that again. Knightley is ever so cute but really really ever so thin in a famine victim kind of way.
Arrived at Heathrow a little bit late after a pretty wild approach. I'd estimate the cloud base was down under 1000 feet, and choppy. Then we say on the runway for an hour before finally getting in. Due to the ticketing situation, I had to go groundside, transfer to T3 and check in again. As LHR is currently a building site, this involved walking a quarter of a mile in the rain. Joy.
Finally checked in and got to wait 3 hours for my flight. Of course we took off into the weather front I landed in. If I'd thought it was bad in a hefty 747 it was actually pretty scary in a A319. I know scary and this was pushing the limits of what happens in a passenger plane before people start to cry. The crew weren't instructed to strap in, so I knew it wasn't that bad, but I'll skip that on the way home please.
Arrived around 9 in Malmo, had a beer and a sandwich in the hotel and was in bed asleep at 11pm. Naturally I was wide awake at 5am, and now at 7am I'm tired again. *sigh* this is going to be a LONG day.
Management Meeting starts at 12pm, I think I'll have another lie down.
