Flight

My best bit in the flight was watching PERCY JACKSON AND THE LIGHTNING THEIF (sic) (even though I am only half-way through it!) - Murray

On the plane i was really tired so i watched a film, had tea and went to bed. I watched "How to Train your Dragon". It was really good - Erica

Up and till landing in Frankfurt we had 4 seats in wildly different parts of the cabin. Neither phone calls nor attempts to log in on-line nor haranging the check- in guy had made any difference. But we like our children - so we persevered. A tIcket person in Heathrow sent a telex (apparently telex still exists) to Frankfurt and hey, it is all fixed by the time we land in Germany. My best moment being with a united family Wilson in row 24 - sappy Keith.

I don't love flying and always look forward to being on the ground. All was going well and we are on final approach to HCM City when suddenly the plane turns up again. Captain announces that there is bad rain around the airport and we are going around for "another attempt". Don't you hate the word"attempt" in this context - really fills you with confidence. Anyway, after a few green moments we landed s +s. It was only a rain storm after all .....perhaps the pilot had forgotten all about rain with the summer we have been having back home - Shona.
