Who is who in this one Linda?:DBlackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -

...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -

so it was a quiet day then?:rotfl:
weirdly it all ran exactly to timetable but by about the the fourth time of lugging my bag on and off something I was getting a bit pished off. The walk was the worst, I thought I'd never find the check in desk! The bus just dropped off at the front of a building rather than the train coming to a 'proper' arrival area. There was a bus stop which said 'terminal 3 bus' and I thought, can't think I'll be at terminal 3, surely that will be for the little airlines etc? How wrong I bloody well was........up stairs, across travelators, up escalators, down lifts, through terminal 1 ground floor check in desks, up to terminal 1 check in desks, a wail of frustration at a woman on a baggage counter, back down a lift, outside (again) across a road, into terminal 3, up another lift and then a hike to desks 37-39 which were - it seemed - checking the whole world and his wife in on behalf of Flybe!
If there had been a sign with terminals and airlines where the bus stopped I would have got the bus rather than feeling like I might never make it out of the airport again!"Stay Wonky":D
