As we're taking a laptop with us on this trip and we'll probably end up seeing some interesting stuff over there I though I'd make a little blog of the trip. Right now I'm sitting in the loungue in Heathrow's new Terminal 5 - Gemma's card let's her take a guest in so I get to benefit from all the free food, drink and - more importantly for this - internet access. It's pretty interesting to see how the other side lives. Right now I'm looking over at a bar serving free champaigne and premium spirits and a guy is screaming at some poor guy in a bank because he isn't transferring his 250,000 euros between accounts quick enough. I think we're the only people here not wearing suits. We're definitely the only people wearing Birkies.
They have two huge horse statues draping with the Union Jack at the entrance. They're giant lamps. You can tell because the horses have lampshades on their heads.
It's 12.45am here and the flight to Japan is boarding in about 30 minutes. Gemma's just coming back and told me we've been upgraded to business class! My first (and probably only) business class trip!

Tried taking a picture on the built-in camera. You can see some of the free wine on the shelves over my shoulder. Sorry about the expression, haven't got the hang of the timer yet...
