got up at 3am yesterday mornin by the time i got ready and picked someone else up the three of us left for Gatwick at 4am in the 15 seater transit we hired... me driving
200 miles and 3 hours later we arrive 
plane delayed 1 hour 40 min then took them 1 and half hours to get out of customs so finally left at 11am...........
got back to my house at 6pm
