It Begins

Our latest adventure begins. The taxi arrived a liitle early but we were ready to leave anyway. As we swept up to the airport in luxury we weren't quite sure what to expect over the next couple of weeks. Whatever it will be, we will make the most of it.

The phone rang. It was Urban-cub. She had just got the details of tomorrow's expected loads at Gatwick. This meant that she could recommend the best time of the morning to get through security quickly. It's nice to have the inside track!

Once our suitcases were dropped off we checked-in to the hotel and set off to get something to eat. We wandered next door to the Sofitel and picked a restaurant for a leisurely dinner. Then it was back to our hotel for a quiet evening before tomoorrow's journey.
