Off to Reston, Virginia
(backposting) Left home at 0700, having seen the girls, which is always good. Took 3 hours to get to Heathrow, as the M25 was pretty awful. Once there, I was through check-in and security in 10 minutes, which wasn't bad, however you look at it. Failed to get an upgrade, but did get a bulkhead seat, so life could have been worse.We were delayed by quite a while, but the flight itself was all right. Watched Whiteout (fairly diverting, but fairly obvious), read Thomas Pynchon's "The Crying of Lot 49", and did lots of knitting.
Took a good old time to get through immigration in the States, and then to my hotel. Had a good Thai meal round the corner, and then to bed.
Problems with home email. Hopefully I can get it fixed (maybe with Moo's help) tomorrow.
