Week 6 - Friday 7/01/00

I travel late today as it was only a 4 day week. I therefore travel back to Amsterdam.  I know where the plane will dock G2. I know where my plane will leave around D16, or there about.  It is a pleasant flight, a 737. We have a video on board, more Mr. Bean.  We land 10 minutes late, no problem. We taxi around the airport and pass by the D arm. I see a British Midland plane there. We continue taxing. Eventually we get to G2. I am the first off. The clocks say 20:04. My flight is 20:20. Here I go again. I must submit this as an olympic sport. Somthing I may get a Gold in and one where England may suceed.  There is no-one at the transfer desk. Check the monitors, D24. God I am knackered. I don't quite know how the airline staff know that I am about to go to the toilet, but they do and put on the seat belt signs. I need to go. It is now 20:10  Off I go to D24. S*!t they have placed a scanner before D20. I need to be scanned here and not at the gate. So close. Thankfully there is not much of a queue. I am through and running up the walkway. I get processed and loaded on the plane at the correct time 20:20. Twice in one week. I should be a lot fitter after this.  We depart the gate 20 minutes late. We taxi off in the direction of G. As we pass the Malev flight is being pushed back for its return flight to Hungary.  I go home and relax
