Safely arrived in London and tucked up in my lovely little (emphasis on the little) hotel room with the two important things - the Internet and a bed. I'm soon going to stop with the Internet and get between the sheets so I can recover from four hours of sleep over the past 40 hours. I'm currently yawning my silly head off.

I am suitably impressed with Malaysia airlines. Both legs of my journey from Melbourne to KL and then KL to London were very good. (There's not a lot they can do about the fact that I've literally crossed the globe in a day.) The flights left exactly on time, for the most part the crew were very obliging and polite, and I have to admit that the food was actually very, very good (proper steak, decent potatoes and even the broccoli wasn't overcooked)!

Okay, so both flights were full, so no luxurious stretching out. Hence why I'm a little short on the sleep.

And maybe I did have to wait for almost an hour at passport control because of the obscenely long queues.

And yes, okay, so there were a few hiccups with works on the Tube line so I had to swap to a bus, lugging my case and backpack.

But you know what?

I'm in London. I have a two week holiday ahead of me.

So I really don't care! *g*

Well, I did wake up at 5am, but I'm feeling a lot more like myself. And believe me, I plan to! *g*

Ah yes, engineering works on the tube on a Sunday...forgot to mention that they happen alot!

Glad you arrived safely and I'm looking forward to seeing you on Thursday evening- I'll send you a message to arrange the details.

Oh, and I think you must have brought this weather with you- thanks, I guess?

Sleep well!

*lol* No worries, as long as it's only on Sundays, and I shall definitely know for next week when I head to Berlin.

And I can't wait for Sunday. Apologies about the weather. Hopefully it won't be as bad as people say.

Thanks! Much better now that I've had a (somewhat broken) eight hours. I think I'll be fine by tomorrow.

Why, thank you! I've been to London before so I've 'done' the main sights, but I do have a list of places and people to visit.
