In which I am a lucky bunny...

So... I did make it to Finland on Saturday after all, and it was indeed an adventure. First of all, I'm not sure if it was the flight from Singapore or the "full English" breakfast I had at Heathrow T3 (on the assumption that I might not get any lunch), but I ended up feeling quite sick while waiting for the next flight. Terminal three was a bit of zoo and any space to sit was at a premium. I elected to save my laptop battery (this point will become important later on) and walked around for a bit, in between trips to various mens rooms.

At last the flight was called and I was off to Helsinki. Now, I had made a decision on this trip to try wearing layers instead of my usual travelling jacket and T-shirt. T3 for some reason, seemed to be either unbearably hot or cold, so I kept on taking my jumper on and off. Once in the plane, though, I soon realised it was actually really hot (and it wasn't just me, lots of other people were complaining). So, I was down to my outer shirt and T-shirt, taking the outer shirt off as well, eventually. This point will also become important later.

Minulla on laukkuni!

Or, as they say in English, "Mine is my bag!"
