We are on our way at last. After the rather stressful last few days this lounge is a haven of peace and tranquility (and free Bloody Marys) The chap on the desk let us in for nothing as long as he is upgraded to business class next time he flies with Monarch!!!
Georgie and Olivia gave us a great send off with a Halloween party last night and presents to open at various times during our trip. Fortunately the check-in staff turned a blind eye to the baggage scales.
Off to the pleasures of 10 hours at the back of one of Sir Richard Branson's Airbuses now. Maybe there is time for one last BM first.
