Sorry for the interruption - yet another flight intruded on the report.

The flight was good - I managed to get some sleep. The IFE had not changed much since my extensive flying in October and thus I'd seen almost everything of interest.

There was some confusion when I awoke at the end of breakfast. My pre-order form had been lost. But since I only wanted a drink that was no problem.

We'd made up some time en route and landed only slightly late. However a long taxi to a remote stand and the time it took for buses to take us to terminal 4 (not TBIT) meant we arrived rather late. We were the only flight being processed by T4 immigration, and I was one of the first off the bus so I didn't have long to wait. The immigration line checker didn't like that I was in transit to Australia and implied I would have trouble with the immigration officer. Fortunately no problems with that, nor that I'd had a similar visit to USA so recently and I was soon on my way, albeit more than an hour later than I was due to arrive.
