Back in the UK
Our trip back to the UK was indeed a very long one. Transitted in Singapore for 8-9 hours. Explored Orchard Road while it was pouring out of the heavens. I could see myself working in Singapore. It is such a shopping haven :) We freshened up at Changi airport. It has a transit place where you can shower and even take a nap. Our flight out to London was delayed for 30 minutes due to the busy traffic in the european airspace. We were later called for boarding. We had to stay for another good 40 minutes in the plane when a passenger decided to stay on in Singapore due to poor health. Am sure it was due to the endless delay as we had to wait in the plane for a very long time. And it was rather stuffy.
The flight was rather bumpy. But we slept through most of the turbulence. The sleeping was uncomfortable due to the cabin air being dry. They should have a humidifier!
Finally landed at 640 am. A friend picked me and JC from Heathrow. Sad to leave home but glad to be in London finally.
