UK time Somewhere Above The

03.56 (UK time).

Somewhere Above The Atlantic on United UA938 Chicago O’Hare > London Heathrow.

Travelled: 981 nautical miles. To go: 3153.

Take off c.  21.15 Central Time. The snow at O’Hare was the worst I can remember there, and I’ve known it bad. Back here in 777 Cattle Class, we are as light as were wide-bodies in the 1970s & during the first Gulf War. Apparently 26 passengers were missing from this flight, even though they were known to be at the airport & their baggage was onboard. They failed to respond to paging, didn’t show & their cases offloaded. So, we had a late pushback & then de-icing.

A window & aisle seat to myself, I am a Happy Boy.

21.05  Bredonborough.

Yippee! Home with the Slinky Minx. 

An uneventful landing & drive home. Lunch with Minxie at Blowers Restaurant & Wine Bar. Gentling while dribbling, a walk around the town & now to settle.

Yippee!
