HAHA
im so glad to be back!

got home last night after the most stressful time ive had travelling ever! smileys/smiley5.gif

left the hotel at 7am monday morning and got back in the UK 8.30pm last night!

we had problems everywhere! lol

Flight was delayed for the first of two flights in Korea.

computer system packed in at Seoul (korea) airport for the second flight, so they had to hand write every ticket for everyone on the 747, which delayed the flight by well over 1.5hr.

then we had delays at dubai, but there were a load of nice cars inside the airport so that eased the wait a bit lol

we got to heathrow and the bags never turned up! so im waiting for a courier to drop them off at the house today lol

we then had to check in for the newcastle flight, only to find out that we were booked in for the wrong flight, tickets were for today not yesterday!
so we went on standby for one flight, couldnt get on it as it was full.
then we managed to get onto a later flight lol
but we had an upgrade to business class in the BA lounge so i got fooking shitfaced on the free booze smileys/smiley17.gif

then the newcastle flight was delayed due to a technical fault, we had to wait for a plane coming in from berlin. then that had a fault and we had to wait for the air start motor to come and start up the engines! smileys/smiley5.gif LMBO! © sax-p so i blagged a few more drinks on the plane smileys/smiley2.gif

Im glad to be back and even managed to get up early today and take the car out for a blast, which cheered me up smileys/smiley4.gif

But im really looking forward to FCS, had a look at the garage full of goodies that arrived when i was away smileys/smiley2.gif smileys/smiley16.gif
just got to pull my finger out and get them on the car smileys/smiley17.gif
