Bit of a Break from travelling - then hell.

Started back travelling week before last:
Jet2.com Leeds to Dusseldorf - interesting service given you have to queue so long with all the holiday makers going to Palma, Malaga etc. Plane 737 full to bursting so they must be doing something right ! BA Connect stand no chance having steadily reduced the size of the planes and kept their fares high.
Black Thursday: I arrived into Heathrow at 0724, 6 minutes before they shut the airport. Knew there was something wrong as we landed as there were to park. ATC told our plane to stop. Pilots allowed us to switch on phones and I was showing the pilots waht was going on from the internet via my phone, given atc was silent ! Finally parked up after 2 hours.
