Glad by now you are enroute, or even home - but what wonderful "lemonade" you made from the lemons of airline delays! Hope you have a safe and comfortable return!

46 years since I've been in London. Haven't thought about it in a while. Good to hear you've made the most of it. I'm afraid I wouldn't have been so patient.

I had a wee airline delay in Atlanta myself. Did not let myself stress over it since my daughter lives close by so I knew I would not be sleeping in the airport. Many friends texted me saying every time they turned on the news, all they showed was Atlanta airport! Happy travels! :-)

Safe travels Becky! You and family. Hope you at least had time to raise a "few" in a favorite British pub!

Hope the beer was cold enough! I hear they like it warm. Cheers to all and to all a good night! Welcome home soon!

Sorry about your travel delays. Did the computer update problem affect your flights? At least London is a great city to spend time in. I love the world-class theatres and plays there. I love the art museums, too. I hope that you can resume normal life as soon as possible! Best wishes! Janet

Safe journey home, Becky! I hope your luggage catches up with you soon. Sorry about the luggage and no clean clothes, but a day in London would be great!

Glad you enjoyed London. If you're thinking of coming back, you should one of my partner's tours! In fact anyone who comes to London should do one his tours. And I'm happy to show anyone round if they don't want to do a (very good) tour. Especially a fellow Substacker!

Good to look on the bright side of things under the circumstances. A bonus to feel the London vibe and meet old friends and brother. Josephine Nolan
