dear_prudencei bet you thought you'd have to wait a while to hear from me. hah.
we've flown to sydney where we are now lounging hilariously in the fancy-pplz lounge, as we have fancy-pplz tickets.
we're nomming brie and drinking champagne and baileys.
SAJEE'S BAG WEIGHED MORE THAN MINE! this has never, ever happened. ever! hahahah! (Ed: I would like to point out that my bag has hiking boots and a bulky backpack and a present for M. Tennant and a thermos and MANY OTHER HIKERLY THINGS! I am letting her gloat but I know in my heart that my bag really did weigh less. *shifty eyes*)
rattus! she hacked while i was on the loo!
i know we have only been on the road for half a day but i already have a story to tell you:
on my way through security i was stopped and the security guy said he needed to search through my bag. naturally, i acquiesced, as he explained that i had a large pair of scissors in there. i explained that it was an accident, and he was really nice about it. it turns out i'd chucked my pencil case in there without checking it and they were in there. the moral of the story is that while airport security may be paranoid, they don't necessarily assume you're trying to kill people.
i'd say it helped that i'm a rich young white woman, but i'm just glad not to have been cavity searched.
so, cheers from sydney!
