Border control

After mentally preparing ourselves for a very long wait on arrival at Heathrow we couldn't believe how quickly we were processed. In fact the official had us moved up so quickly to officer to process us I was still getting our passports out of my bag. Unbelievable really. We waited longer for our luggage at the carousel. Of course we had Jessica coming to pick us up and had told her not to be too early!! By the time she arrived at 7:30 we had had our first coffee. Our flight was very good. We were on an Airbus and were seated in the upper deck. The service as always on Singapore Airlines was excellent but it is such a long way. We did manage some sleep which meant that we did manage to stay awake all day which so when we did go to bed at 9pm we slept all night. The one activity we did do during the day was that Jessica took us shopping for work clothes!! They obviously had big plans for us. Their new house is lovely but they have plans for redecorating most of the house. It is a 1930s vintage and much of it needs a major redo starting with gibbing some of the walls. Right up Stephen's alley. (no photos sorry - I don't seem to be able to add them when I am using the iPad. Any one with any ideas?).
