I'll be leaving for the George in a couple minutes, might stop for food on the way, though.
As it's Friday 13th, I'm pretty sure I won't have too much trouble finding those who may already be there... smiley - biggrin

Currently faffing and packing, wondering if I need my netbook, and trying to work out the best way to get to the airport for about 7.30 am. Got my passport!

Oooh, its a touchy subject! I need photographic ID for the plane, and lots of the budget airlines (yes Ryanair, I DO mean you!) insist that the only acceptable form is your passport.

Cue many rows at the check-in desk from indignant passengers asserting that Norn Irn is part of the UK and why the hell do I need a passport to travel to my country's capital....

Good news is, my badger badge arrived in the nick of time smiley - biggrin
