It was a bit weird seeing it stood there, wheels tucked under and surrounded by this fringe of debris. However, we all went on our way ... a bit disturbed, but uninjured. I do remember us all being evacuated to somewhere air-side, where we stood for an hour or so, and wonderful ground staff coming round with red cherries to keep us refreshed. ^

Anywaaaaay ... about our coffee next Wednesday [19th]
I shall bring a Bear, and some bling for you.
