Forgot to blog for ages so here comes a quick christmas update and consequent flying complaints, considering it appears Marseille/Manchester is the worst route ever!
So after an eventful few last days in Aix before christmas with the usual christmas meals, parties, drinks and of course no night would be complete without me getting followed home after I set off home for Christmas :D
Christmas itself was spent at my sisters new house which was lovely to finally see and catch up with all the family, followed by my weirdest new years yet, joining my sister at a 'twin peaks' party (never heard of it, neither have i?) where we managed to miss midnight before spending the rest of the night talking to a random 60year old bloke, these things only seem to happen to me in good old yorkshire. I also experienced an interesting night out where I was sober due to antiobiotics, which was quite an eye opening experience.
Now onto why i hate flying...
1. Flying home to surprise my grandma for her 80th birthday, i experienced France's version of a bomb scare (complete over-reaction), then had to leg it across munich airport to make my plane that was subsequently delayed by snow.
2. Upon returning from this birthday weekend, (Ace surprising my family and seeing Mumford) i found myself delayed in Brussels airport due to fog in London :/ Eventually took off at midnight which proved to be a problem considering the buses to Aix stop at 00.15. Spent a lovely middle of the night 4 hours in Marseille airport :(
3. Coming home for christmas it seems Marseille security staff are the slowest ever! plane meant to take off at 12.10, dont get through security til 12.15 :S #onlyinfrance luckily the british airways staff decided to wait for us.
4. Finally getting back to Marseille. more fog in london and a fire alarm later meant i missed my flight to France, resulting in spending a night in an airport hotel in london! joyyyyy
At least i had my birthday to look forward to!
ace christmas pressie :)
