Vom City


View The Redundancy Tour on le_peeps's travel map.

Eh, yeah, so its been quite the adventure so far!

Starting with a 4.30am wake up call. First flight to london...fine. Bag collected...all good. Next terminal...located. Check in desk....oh hang on, yup, gonna barf. Bags and passport abondoned, I legged it. Vom city, population me!

And thats how I like to start my holidays. Yay me!

So it would appear that early starts + nerves + malaria tablets + leaving steve for 5 weeks is not a good mix for me! But onwards and upwards, a little bit of vomit and an endless stream of tears aren't going to stop me!

So I was waiting at my gate to board the flight to Singapore where I got to witness a mental Irish man giving abuse to the staff. So that was nice. Boarded, nice window seat, all good. Oh, whos that coming to sit beside me, of course it is, metal Irish man. Seriously, out of all the seats in that massive plane, he had to be on that one. Awesome.

Can't say I really got along with my first new friend. He only liked to talk to me as soon as I went to go to sleep or put my headphones on. It was fairly obvious he'd never been on a plane before...or met other humans. Particularly woman. For those that have watched the first couple of Pan Am, hes one of those men that drools over the stewardesses and makes inappropritae comments (although in his defence, they were gorgeous)!

And then lets not forget the medical emgergency on the upper deck and the call for doctors on board. Which begs the question, what if there are no doctors on board??! Anyway, there were and some guys eye was exploding (mental note for dad, don't be getting on any flights anytime soon!).

So now I'm waiting on my next flight to Hanoi and making the most of the free internet in the airport! God only knows whats going to happen on it!!!

Good material for your autobiography and the film of your life!
Although no one would believe it was real!
We're you able to determine if the mental Irishman was joining your tour?
Wouldn't that be fun!!!
We will watch the news for stories of missing mental patients with a fetish for air stewardesses!
Just goes to show that 1st class is not all roses, sometimes your eye explodes.
Keep the updates coming, Harry could not understand why mummy & daddy were pissing themselves laughing at aunty Paula's troubles!!!

Stay safe (and hopefully vom free).

It doesn't sound half as exciting as me forgetting to bring home my glass from the Real Ale Festival last night... only one thing to remember, one thing god damn it!

I knew I should have gone with you.....if only to make sure that no nut cases sit beside you! Hope by now you have shaken him off, that you had some sleep and your group are fun. So here comes the motherly advice..
Keep safe!
Don't eat anything too dodgey!
Check the seals on the bottled water!
Be nice to your travel partners!
Don't get lost from the group (you know what your like!)
Look after my credit card!!

Miss you loads. XXXXXX
PS Steve and I are talking turkey!

Kurt - that was a massive concern of mine after he sat beside, so I sussed it out and he was going on to Nee Zealand, phew!

Steve - that's cause you normally make me do it for you!! You're lost without me x

Mum - ok so now it looks like you're paying for my trip. Just to clarify everyone, mums card is a back up for emergencies. I do have my own card, god, way to be cool mum! But yes I'm doing all of the above xx
