New York Lines

First stamp (Thursday)

This passport is going to have a stamp from every continent at least once… the last one managed Europe, North America, Africa and Asia: probably more than I expected 10 years ago but expectations of mobility have changed over that time and my feet have got itchier.

Despite a rather cumbersome District Line start ‘this train will now terminate at Parsons Green’ Heathrow was an almost enjoyable experience. DIY check-in skipped the queues (but with no opportunity to try and wangle an upgrade no matter how good one’s computer skills).

Initial ideas of spending 2 hours drinking Bombay Sapphire & tonics in my Priority Pass-ed lounge seemed to evaporate: a wander and a detour via the Paul Smith store and there was just about time to have a drink, refresh and discover no free wifi networks in the lounge before heading towards the gate and onto Lady Penelope. FAB.
