I say tentatively, because the UK has been hit by an 'Atlantic Weather Bomb' ie the Met are getting creative with their description of a storm. It is a pretty brutal storm, but I have seen worse. Just haven't flown in one though!
Our flight got cancelled yesterday because of the sea state, so they made us come back at 6am (which meant a 4:30 start for me). The weather report still isn't good and amid reports of lightning offshore they've now decided to wait until daylight to fly 'so they can at least see where they're going' giving the wind time to build up. Rumour is they may still shift us though - and personally I have to say I'm sh***ing a brick. One upside is - it'll have one he'll of a tailwind so the journey should be over faster than usual - whoosh...
It was a minor bonus getting cancelled yesterday as I grabbed the opportunity for a flying visit to town to pick up some Xmas shopping. Only two weeks to go and nothing wrapped yet. Ironic as this year has probably been the most organised regarding getting gifts. My job when I come home will be to get some parcels under the tree so it looks more festive (along with the one side of baubles it has presently!) I may pop some more decorations on too, just to 'enhance' the kids efforts ;0)
