There's a 3AM now? Who knew?

There’s a 3AM now? Who knew?

Heading out to the USA via LHR started early, or late – depending on your viewpoint.

Terminal 4 has so far failed to make me buy anything. I’ve just seen ‘farmhouse’ breakfast being offered for £9.50, which I will leave to your own imagination to consider whether that might constitute value for money.

I could do with coffee, but given that there’s only Starbucks or Costa, the extent to which coffee is available is also questionable. Bring on the grey, warm, in-flight liquid!

Today’s new experiences so far:

1) Being surrounded by Cubs and Scouts in the Delta bag drop. I think I’m on a jamboree flight. (Please let there be a singing nun too!)

2) Being the winner of random selection for the oft-reported full body scanner.

I passed whatever kpi I was supposed to pass anyway. My only failure was in being able to use the pen they provided to fill in their survey afterwards. I blame too many years in IT for that.
