Well the day started well, both alarm clocks did just that, alarm at the set time. I am glad who ever named them did it correctly, because at 4AM, alarm is what they do! Certainly me! I get my tickets. I have changed my route because of the problems in Amsterdam airport and the limitation placed on the number of flights in and out. So I decided to go via Brussels. Brussels airport, ranks less badly than Paris Charles de Gaul, but still bad. Anyhow, upon check in there was a 40 minute Air Traffic control delay. Cuts it fine for the next flight, so kindly they check me in for the 1400, just to be on the safe side. The delay comes down to 30 minutes. At 7:20, we are informed that the plane will be delayed until at least 09:08. Well that's fucked the day up. I let them know in region that there is a delay and not to expect me until tomorrow. Oh ye the reason for the delay. The Firemen are on strike. They need 8, but only five are on duty. What makes them think they will get another three so that we can take off, I wonder at 08:15. Buy the way, I have to get to Vienna, so I can go to Bratislava.
