I’m outta here again.
Tomorrow I get up at 4 in the morning for the drive to Shannon Airport. From there I get the its-days-are-numbered Aer Lingus service to Heathrow. Then I will spend a few hours hanging around Heathrow (in queues at security I reckon…) before getting a Virgin Atlantic flight to Shanghai Pudong Airport, which will take approximately 12 hours. Its my first time flying with Virgin. I hear they’re very good, even for economy class peons like me.
Once I get there its sleepytime, then I spend the next five days working. After that its back home, but because of the Special Olympics its impossible to get a flight from Shanghai to Heathrow so I’m going via Hong Kong. I get the impression that I might well crash my car on the drive home from Shannon when I eventually get there!
I’m told I will have internet access in my hotel room, so hopefully I might be able to stick up some photos here and on flickr during the week. If Aer Lingus shuts down for my flight home I think I’m going to have to visit Dermot Mannion’s house and take a dump on his doorstep. They’ve already screwed me once this year with their industrial relations bullshit.
