The Airbus - Beast of the Sky



Arrived at the airport in good time. As some may have predicted I managed to screw up a bit by having destroyed the credit card that I bought the ticket with. They would not issue the ticket until I found the first 4 digits of the credit card number. 20 stressful minutes later the bank agreed to release the details.
   D&P were impressively well organised and while we drank coffees in Costa they tied my rakhees - one of the many things that I'm going to miss out on this year. At least I'll get to see the pictures on FB.
   Take off was amazingly smooth. I had grand plans for the 13 hour flight to Singapore. My hand luggage was packed with art supplies, electronic gadgets, an MP3 player and books to read. Of course I didn't even open the bag and spent the whole flight using the amazing in flight entertainment. After a couple of great movies (Born to Suffer [Spanish], Kickass) , dinner and a brief nap, we finished the flight with a tetris battle. Of course I won.
