Now in the business lounge waiting to be called to the gate. I'll get called through first because of the help needed and the wheelchair.
We got through security surprisingly easily given all the meds I'm carrying some of which are liquid. Only my open bottle of 300ml sized morphine got pulled aside to be checked. The open 100ml bottle was fine! Spectrum analysis proved it was what it said it was and it has been returned to me. I assume that the other 2 unopened bottles in the hold luggage haven't caused any issues because no-one had yelled!
Got to see my brother who very kindly started work early today to meet us at Heathrow arriving minutes before we did. That helped considerably with the bags on trolleys etc with me rolling the wheelchair myself. The ladies and gents at the special needs assistance area seemed to think my OH will get upgraded to be in the same cabin as me. He's in the business lounge with me as a invited career! And I've seen our plane. It's xxxxxx huge!
So our car has gone to a family member, our home has gone. Most of our possessions are in a shipping container somewhere, 2 bags are in the hold and we have 2 cabin bags each with us, plus my wheelchair and crutches.... oh and the free business class WiFi does not work with my opera web browser. I'm having to use the hated by me, chrome option!
Oh and there are loads of vegan options to choose from. I'm in heaven!
Take off is less than 90 minutes away!
