Aunty M's best friend is waiting for her son and his family to get here from their home in Vancouver. Last she heard they were stuck at Amsterdam airport, awaiting a flight into the UK.
When we left Krakow last week it was snowing heavily. Expecting long delays at the airport, we were pleasantly surprised and rather impressed at the efforts to keep runways clear (using a convoy of 10 or 11 snow ploughs) and plane wings de-iced (using a man, a ladder attached to a tanker of de-icing fluid and a large spray). We left an hour late though the delay was entirely due to the late incoming flight from Liverpool.
Just saying.
