Uploaded Tuesday's post to LJ then messaged L&S and then used FaceTime to video chat with them.
Tested Skype between mum's laptop and my iPod. It worked but I should have tried it earlier.
Wed 10 Oct
Up 7:15 stepped on glasses! Had shower with newly fitted shower head, better spray. Had breakfast, last check of email then off to Valencia airport at 8:30.
Got to airport 10:20 said goodbye to mum and sis. Queued for check in and boarding card, done 10:55.
Through security when I realised wine bottles weren't allowed in hand luggage, so had to dump them! Bought cigarettes and whisky for 65.80€ paid £54.53.
Discovered antihistamine tablets had fallen from my coat pocket, though only 5/30 left. Started queuing to board flight EZY8642 at gate C11 at 11:35 (no reserved seating).
Through passport / ticket check by 12ish. On tarmac 12:20, on the plane seated 12:30. Plane took off 12:56, due to arrive at Gatwick 2:00.
Ate packed lunch 1:30ish read. Landed 2:57/1:57 on time, out of plane by 2:20 to passport control in the chipped passport queue done and out of North Terminal 2:40 to train station platform 5 by 2:50 to catch the 15:00 to Haywards Heath. Then to Specsavers to get my glasses readjusted, and to chiropractor to get tomorrows appointment moved.
Home 4:20. Unpacked, watched Mythbusters had dinner, then caught 6:53 to Gatwick.
Got the 100 bus to St Paul's church hall. Arrived 8:00, got New Year's Eve dance ticket. Lesson started 8:30, J didn't turn up so mostly danced with the teacher or solo. Mostly worked on new steps to the quickstep.
Finished 9:45 caught bus back to Gatwick then home.
Thu 11 Oct
Back to work, after work some of the team went to the Jubilee Oak in Crawley for a farewell drink. I got a lift from MB but still got drenched in a torrential downpour!
MB had to leave early as he was starting an evening class at 7:00.
CR, SF and JW turned up just before he left. Organiser of the event MG with OD and KO turned up next, with boss TOM arriving just after 7:00.
I left at 7:30 to catch a train at Crawley for Three Bridges and then home. Unfortunate due to a body on the line at Gatwick all services were being delayed. The train from Three Bridges was SRO and packed like sardines (or the tube at rush hour).
When I got home I caught up with Strictly Come Dancing from last week end.
