Heathrow airport disruption
Well, my flight to Romania today was cancelled because of the disruption at Heathrow caused by the thwarted terrorist threat. This means that I won't be able to join the team from my church, who are already there running a children's camp. Shame.
At the airport, it was of course packed, but when I was there, everyone was quite calm, and at that time most people seemed unaware even of the cause of the delays.
Sorry I don't have any photos. I did ask the nice policeman with the machine gun, but he said photos were not allowed today...
So, it looks like I have a weekend free now to spend in London... Ho-hum.

Message to Dr. John Reid, home secretary:
I don't think they bought it Doc. But nice try. What can you do for an encore?
