Woke up to find that MrLapLap had forwarded his BA message inviting him to change to an earlier flight for his 17:55 departure from VCE to LHR to BA.
I was fast asleep when it arrived and he’s too groggy to interact now. The midday departure is too soon, he still has work that needs to get done before he can return.

Same “adverse weather” reason given.

I’ve been checking out accommodation options for tonight, at least they are reasonable when you don’t have to be out on the lagoon itself.
