Merry Season at Stansted
Here we are, some 8 hours before our planned departure for sunny Portugal. Yet another night spent in the brisk cosiness of Stansted Airport. And amidst the newly padded blue-shaded benches, a mighty Christmas tree cheers the atmosphere. At least 15 ft tall (Laurine reckons 20), with a myriad of bright white lights and several stars (not to mention tinsel and other sundry), it seems this conifer is now the pride of the airport, or perhaps even Essex (and its notorious girls).
More on our trip soon...
