You have left nothing to the imagination.... I am taking a BA F flight from SEA-LHR this September (my first) and I am reading every word and savoring every detail....perhaps you are giving it "all away" but I can't stop reading and feeling like I am on board with you.... excellent report for a newbie like me.

Thanks.

Just want to add myself to the list of people thanking you for taking the time to write this. You have a real talent, and it's clearly being enjoyed by many.

Cheers,

Well I am one of Seat 2A's regular readers and I just had to take some time, despite busy schedule to read this latest installment . As expected it's a fantastic start and can't wait for the rest.

Just reading about your original canceled flight SFO to LHR made me scrutinize closer your date of departure and sure enough it was the 10th of March about the same time when we were watching news in Zurich about stormy days in UK. Again, can't wait for the next reports.

I, For One, Am Grateful For The Tease

Personally, I am very relieved that a full Seat 2A trip report isn't here yet. I still have work to do today.

(I also find it slightly ironic that while he's in Australia tempting me to avoid work, I should be spending my east coast afternoon on the phone with the folks at Alaskan Brewing in Juneau, Midnight Sun Brewing in Anchorage and the Silver Gulch Brewery in Fox, doing interviews for an article I'm working on.)

Same problem here on my work computer. Work does not allow photos sites to be dispayed, but they normally work when clicked thru on FT, but not www.foki.com it seems. Trying from home last night, with my dial up modem, the Seat 2A TR page would not load at all.

I have to say what a fantastic read so far! You are doing a marvelous job of accounting on your travels! I have just spent a good portion of my oxford tube journey to Victoria reading about your travels and it's got me in the mood to start planning a good splurge of my AA miles on some form of BA F trip!

I eagerly await the next installment!

I am also not seeing the embedded pictures in the thread! I hope this can be rectified!

Thanks,

Chris

Hey now - no idea about the Fotki bill due, but it's paid now!

Let me know if there are further problems and I will address further points tomorrow in Alice Springs.

Thanks for all your nice comments!
