Up early before most of the passengers are awake
TV
Heathrow closed again
Straight to the Airport
No queue yet
Strike it lucky, on a plane for tonight
Another day in Dusseldorf
1 week before Christmas
Head to town to finish shopping
No luck here…
Discover Germans laws are crazy
Shops can open only one Sunday a month
and it’s not the Sunday before Christmas
Everything is closed
Back to airport
Wait
Wait
Our departure time passes
Wait
Wait
Finally we board
Wait
and then
a cheer goes up
as the plane leaves the tarmac
We were some of the lucky few to get home…
