So I made it to Singapore on the first half of my journey! Edinburgh to London went fine just seems like I've been travelling for days already having left my house at 8am Sunday morning!! Arrived at Heathrow and managed to stand in the wrong queue for 15mins at check in, sensible!! Finally got to the desk with a very nice lady sat there telling me I had a really nasty seat for my (12hr!) flight, gee thanks missis. But then she stopped me and says "how do fancy telling a little white lie today...?" I said about what..."well you can either be claustrophobic or have a water infection?? aisle or window??" We conferred and decided that I'd developed a bad case of IBS and therefore needed an aisle seat for access to obvious amenities. So I got my boarding pass and trundled over to customer service to tell my little lie! HAHA it worked, pretty embarrassing discussing the ins and outs of IBS but hey it got me a different seat. Turned out that I had no-one sat next to me so had a nice amount of space for the duration...awesome!! Didnt get much sleep though coz nervous bladder syndrome kicked in (mother, stop laughing!) Spotted a couple of people id have liked to talk to (ie hot guy) but alas i was surrounded by singaporeans and oldies who i got bored of after 5 minutes..partly coz i couldnt hear what half of them were saying...oops!
The flight was good apart from that, Singapore Airlines is incredible! Was greeted by a double decker plane (!!), hot towels, Beef steak for dinner, 4 course breakfast (abs you would have loved it, I even got grapefruit!!), free alcohol and juice (yes ok i dont get out much!)
So now im standing in the airport typing this after getting confused with transit and arrivals therefore missing the tour bus for singapore so im back in departures hanging out till my flight at 9. This place is massive, thought id find people to talk to but the place is so flipping big its impossible!! Gonna go grab some noodles and fill up for the journey! Next stop ACB backpackers, Auckland where on weds im going to fall foul of a tequila off i promised dart...wish me luck!! Love you all xx
