Leaving

Text written in: English

Well, it has been quite a slow week, must mean that I was clock watching, or that I had a lot of time to sit and watch TV and complain about how much my legs hurt.

We had to be out of the apartment at 10am so we all got up and had a big breakfast and packed a party pack for the mini-van tour back to Lyon and the impending flight back to Chiswick.

Adam (our driver) was supposed to pick us up at around 12:30 but he had another run from Geneva in the morning, however, one of his clients was spewing all the way so he was late. He arrived around 2pm.. we had to be at the airport around 4:30 to check in. We arrived at 6:15 with 15 mins to spare before takeoff. Luckily the plane was not at the airport... and when we finally got onto the plane we sat there for an hour before they worked out they were overloaded by 100kg and had to go back and remove some cargo. The British Airways pilot had a couple of extra mates in the cockpit with him, I wonder if they would add up to 100kg between them. Hmmm... we eventually got home around 11pm.
