Landside, top of the escalators, finish your bottle before you have to go through security.

Technically still Friday in Chicago, although I'm not quite there. babywuk2 arrived at 0108 GMT, so no rest this weekend!

Gold card ready to be gifted, although I'm concerned about tier-point-year alignment

Congratulations!

And, er, about the no rest this weekend, I imagine it will be a while before you get any rest unless you are going in to work and have your own office without big windows so people can't see you having a strategic rest.

Baby Flyingbee has a mis-aligned tier-point year end from the rest of the family but I didn't have any choice because of booking reward flights.

Well I'm going to start this one because it just became Friday in North Carolina and because today is my birthday! I just turned 29. In six hours I will be on the first of three flights to head out to California. San Jose and Monterey today (including an appearance at a FT DO) then driving to Los Angeles on the Pacific Coast Highway. Should be great.

TGIF, but wish it was Saturday around 7.30pm. On the 18:00 from LCY to GLA tonight for a wedding tomorrow where I am best man and I'm not looking forward to the speech. On the plus side, the return to LHR gets me to Silver 3 months before year end

Happy birthday… enjoy your trip.

But may I ask, when do you have the time to attend school and study with all this traveling that you do?????
