Slick

It was a very quick jurney up to Heathrow last night. All the places that Gorse Fox expected tail backs were completely clear. We checked in to the hotel and by 1900 were sitting down to dinner with Pistol Pete and Urban-cub. It was a lovely evening and an opportunity to celebrate Pistol Pete's and the Silver Vixen's upcoming birthdays.

This morning we were dropped off at the refurbished T2. Gorse Fox is very impressed with the slick way in which the baggage drop and the security screening worked (though obviously it wasn't as slick as Urban-cub's Gatwick system!). Within 5 or 10 minutes f walking through the door we were processed and wandering along to the shops and the Lounge. We have an hour or two to kill now, but it is warm, quiet, and comfortable - with plenty of food and drink available, so it's no hardship.
