They didn't actually go under and strand us, but they went on strike and stranded us, sort of. British Air waited until the day before our departure, but they called on the 30th and told us our flight had been cancelled and would we like to be rebooked on a different carrier. Yes, I said. So, we are now working our magic on Continental Airlines, so if you own any stock in that company I suggest you dump it, now!!! We leave just a little earlier than originally p
lanned and get into Heathrow about an hour earlier, which isn't all that bad. We do have an hour in Newark which isn't all that good. But hey, we wanted an adventure right?
On our last night with the fam we celebrated Sheelagh's birthday. There was a wonderful cake which Beatrix helped make. Her thanks for her supper was directed in a large part to herself. Well done Bea.
All in all it has been a wonderful time with our little girls and their Mom and Dad. We set off on the next leg of our journey renewed by the love we have experienced here. We are looking forward to seeing Dorian in England quite soon. Our good friends Malcolm and Delyth who have done so much to smooth our way are there. So, bring it on.
I see that Skyservice has gone out of business. You don't mention it in your blog, but I'm assuming you were involved. K
