London - We Have Arrived!

We boarded our plane with at least twice the amount of permitted carry on luggage. However, the flight was strangely empty so this didn’t seem to pose too much of a problem. We found ourselves at the back of the plane, with people only sitting in every second row and no one in the middle, which suggested this would be a reasonably comfortable flight.
We managed to acquire the majority of the pillows from the back half of the plane, but even with a row to ourselves, it seemed impossible to get comfortable.

We finally landed about 8.30pm local time, collected out luggage and headed to the immigration desks. Thanks to a few innocent smiles and some cheap chit chat, we both managed to get thought without any problems.

The next thing I remember was someone running towards me screaming. It was Suz! I left my trolley to its own devices and ran screaming toward her, I think the whole airport knew we hadn’t seen each other for one and a half years. Brendan had a rather abrupt introduction the joint chaos that is me & Suz. We found a more appropriate place to pull over and waited for Ben to arrived. Following after another ‘run-and-hug’ plus introduction episode we made our way to Suz’s car.

We chucked luggage in the boot and the boys in the back, and made our way to my new home for the next little while.
It was great to catch up with Suz, it was just like old times. Brendan and Ben described us as two drunken parrots as we were talking so fast they couldn’t understand us! Apparently they were even talking to us in the back, but neither of us heard them.

We arrived at Suz’s place in Clapham - Thanks for carrying my heavy suitcase up the stairs Ben! We had an introduction to the house and Suz’s friend and flatmate Heidi. Then went down to the local takeaways for some quick dinner.

After a very long day, and a bit more talking, Brendan and I were very tired and decided to hit the sack. …. Lookout London, we will be seeing you tomorrow!
