So it’s 4:29am on Friday morning and I’m currently sat in a Costa Coffee outlet in Heathrow Airport awaiting the opening of the SAS Check-In Area downstairs.
The journey to get this far started at 8:50pm the previous night. Due to the floods shutting down part of the Oxford Rail Line I had to do a roundabout journey. A train to Birmingham Moor Street, a quick dash across to New Street, time for a pint, another train down to Euston put me in London at just before a quarter to one in the morning. Then another short train journey up to Harrow & Wealdstone, and finally a 45-minute bus journey to Heathrow. Arrived at the airport at about 2:45am. Bizzare event number one was spotting a van from my workplace parked on the side of the road in Yeading.
Anyway, checking in at 5:15, then off to the prebooked Airport Lounge for a shower, some free breakfast and a read of the papers. Should hit Oslo about 10:30 CET where the real fun begins!
