To Prague. 27/11. Luton.

Luton Airport Parkway.
I'm out of the train now. It's cold. Very. Why Luton is always so cold?
Four flights of stairs. One up. Three down. The gate eats my ticket. It was to LPW not the airport.
One pound and I get a brand new one for the shuttle.
10 minutes ride. 28 past 9.

Check in. There's just two of us in the queue. Amazing!
The gate closes at 10:45. I packed the backpack by myself. No, I've not stuffed my baggage with dangerous mixable chemical compounds or sharp objects.

15 to 10. It's breakfast time!
The "restaurant" offers a standard english breakfast. With eggs, sausages, hash brown, baked beans, bacon, mushrooms and roasted tomato. They are out of sausages, hash brown and tomatoes. Let's check M&S.
BLT & a pint of orange juice. Rigorously freshly squeezed. Everything is soooo organic in here. Very "Everywhere" :D

The sandwich is good as usual. The orange juice too. I'm erethic perhaps but don't actually get the difference between organic and "plain old (cheap) crap".
There's a Caffè Nero outside. Just close to the public ashtrays in the smoking zone. An espresso please, double. It's warm. Reassuring in the cold outside. Matches well with the cigarette.

10:15. Let's go to the departure gates. Boarding card check. Security check. No, I have no liquids. No, there's no laptop in the backpack. My pockets are empty. My belt, the phones, the wallet, the coin holder and my frontal lobes are in the tray. Yes, I'll take off my boots.
Nothing beeps. I gather my stuff and move on.
The lounge. A bench. The departure informations panel. "Wait in Lounge". Waiting. 12 to 11. Now.
