Travelers lore...

From my travels I have discovered the following.










First, England is, as most foreigners believe as cold, wet and generally unwelcoming (especially at its airports). You will be forced to queue like a refugee and will be glared at suspiciously from the moment you step off the plane until well after you've cleared immigration... and that's if you're lucky enough to hold a European passport...

Secondly, the Airbus A380 is very much the same as any other damn jumbo jet once your in it, just as noisy, still not enough toilets, nothing particularly fancy unless you are a Sheik or Lord (although they did give me a complementary pack of cards for no obvious reason).

Thirdly, Heathrow airport has yet to realised that if the plane is twice as big as all the others there will be twice as many bags, hence it will take its normal pack of hunchbacks twice as long to unload, and there will be twice as many people trying to fight their way to the luggage belt to try and see if that ubiquitous black suitcase is theirs...

Fourthly, noise cancelling headphones are wonderful, but do not cancel out babies...
