Manchester is an absolute Joke.

How is it that developing nations can have fantastic airports and all of ours are shi*te?

Leeds/Bradford is nice and informal. Only problem is, no direct flights, but its worth a change over to have a hassle free check in and immigration experience.

Thanks, we will get over to T3 immediately. Yes, I expect food on airports more expensive than outside, no surprise. Just paying VISA, even if with extra charge would be just so much more convenient, not having to handle any currency and leave with change in my pocket.

Fog will ring a bell with my wife. She expected me to fly in for our wedding. The domestic plane arrived but I was not in it. I was held up in Frankfurt due to fog.

My telegram about the delay arrived only when she was back home after that experience.
