RL, Glad to hear you arrived safe and sound. Each country's airline does it's own thing. You had quite the experience on that flight over! LOL!
You will find a lot of interesting things in England. If I remember correctly, very little air conditioning except in the major hotels and businesses. Be sure to look down on the curbing before you cross the street! I love the taxis over there and the double decker buses...but the true fun is the subway system which is very old, but good.
I'm sorry to hear that your friend left her h, but it sounds like a little bit of mlc is coming into play. Observe, listen and be gentle when talking to her about what is going on.
Happy Anniversary! What to do? Go out and have some fun! There is plenty to do and see over there.
Enjoy!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
