blamebramptonIt is Christmas.
I am home.
The cats are still talking to me and Mr Brammers has gone to move all of his books off the bed.
Truly it is a time of joy at Chez Brammers, and we would like to thank![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
calanthe_fics , raitala , pingrid , Qantas, the Heathrow Express, several thoroughly decent cabbies and the Rembrant Hotel for making it possible without me actually ever descending into the screaming tanty that threatened. Especially the Qantas woman who did not put me back onto Peter Allen hold music. She is a saint.
No love at all to BA, BAA or Eurostar, nor to people who fly with tiny babies and then proceed to spend the entire evening CHATTING LOUDLY about how difficult it is long after the actual baby has cried itself to sleep (because the baby cannot help itself, but you, adults, you can), nor to the man with the obnoxious feet who took his shoes off across the aisle from me.
Mr Brammers even made my laptop work again. And now, for some unconsciousness ... Tomorrow or the day after I will address my shameful lack of comment responses, but five minutes a day on the lobby computer has not been helpful ...

Date: 2009-12-24 10:19 pm (UTC)They are having a heat wave here--last week it was -30 F, but today it is all the way up to +5 F (-15 C). I'll be heading south to Wasilla later today. The drive (~4 hours) is a beautiful one through some lovely mountain passes.
