20/10/08: Urrgh, its been an 'interesting' 5 days in my life to say the least. In fact, only writing this did I realise that its only been 5 days. It feels like a lifetime. Ok, I'll start from the beginning...
Day 1: Firstly arrived at Heathrow airport last Wednesday and met some top peeps. Sat next to a young lad called Tim for whole 9hours and we hit it off from the start.
I should've seen the doom and gloom that would follow however from the fact that to my horror no in-flight entertainment existed, apart from a TV screen rows away near the toilet that looked liked it'd be bought from Cash Converters.
To add insult to injury, what appeared to be a conventional small TV screen in the chair in front was dastardly covered with an ill fashioned piece of airline upholstery. I proceeded to fiddle with it for several hours convinced that an entertainment unit was hiding below waiting to reveal the latest blockbuster movies. No such joy.
Luckily Tim was a great conversationist and we talked and had a good bit of craic the whole way.
I should've have seen the tale-tale signs that like the hidden non-existent TV, when you scratched beneath the surface of some parts of this trip you might be a bit dissapointed with what you find beneath...
