Howdy all
We're sitting at Gatwick Airport waiting for our flight to Barbados. Have been up since 4am and feeling jetlagged withouth even leaving the ground.
Had a cool touristy day yesterday. Went on the London Eye which is SOOOO much bigger than it looks. Of course the stupid thing stopped as we were about 3/4 of the way up for ages, and I freaked out and nearly got a slapping but managed to regain my composure eventually and have a good look at the view. Amazing especially as we had such a good day with blue skies and sunshine. Biggest ferris wheel we'll ever go on. In fact I won't bother with one ever again, it would just be a flimsy disappointment.
After that little adventure we went to the Tate Modern and saw the slide exhibition. Not sure why its art but it is and I slid down so now I am art too!!!
Walked miles and miles again yesterday but nothing helps with the stupid jetlag. Have taken a strong sleeping pill to get through this 8 hour flight. Still an hour or so till be board so it'll probably kick in as I sit here zzzzzzzzzzz.
Simon and two of the other photographers are sitting upstairs in the posh part of the plane so it'll be a lonely flight for me again but then again after yesterdays little episode on the Eye, Simon doesn't seem to upset. Funny that.
Was nice to be back in London but had forgotten their smoking everywhere policy. I know we're all used to it at home now and its natural to have clean air inside buildings - here its so gross. Even as I sit here in the airport there is a cloud of smoke everywhere. Gets in your clothes, gross gross gross.
Anyway, must dash. Ciao from London!!
