Arrived at Heathrow. Spent more time circling London than flying from Manchester. But arrived safely none the less. Would recommend Airport Angels to everyone. The lounges are a haven of peace and quiet. Free food and drink, newspapers and magazines, comfortable seats and sometimes spas and showers. Flight left on time!

I hate packing! But what's forgotten will have to be purchased en route. 23kg seems a lot but it is soon used up. For once Michael's case weighed less than mine!
