I'm driving down to Stansted to pick up my son and his partner this afternoon, a round trip of about six hours. They are arriving from Morocco and, as you've probably heard, there was quite a large earthquake last night. So I've been up all night trying to reassure them that everything will be fine, so I'll be a wee bit tired later 

They are flying from Ouarzazate on Ryanair, I just hope the flight goes ahead as I think they are both a bit shook up. Shook up.......get it? 😁

Uh uh hu yer.

Any update?

[Sir Tigger KC]

Blimey! 

Hope they get back safely.

Hope all goes well and you all get back safe 

[STEMO]

Thank you. Still at the airport (just a large waiting room with no shops for food and drink). But no news of a flight cancellation, so that's good 

[STEMO]

Update: Boarding the plane 

[STEMO]

Update again: That was a plane for Paris which should have left 4 hours ago. Doh!

[Rangie]

Hope everything works out for you Steve, kids you never stop worrying..

According to FR24, the outward bound plane from Stansted is just crossing into Spain. Looking at a three-hour delay at least.

It's Saturday night and Uncle Stemo is a scouser 
he'll be on the rob or on the lash

More likely he's fast asleep in his car in the car park at Stanstead! 

Meanwhile, the youngsters have landed, and with no sign of Uncle STEMO have opted to get the train into London and onwards Oop Norf.

Got home about half an hour ago, was greeted by a massive thunderstorm. Couldn't see ten feet in front of me, just what I needed after 6 hours behind the wheel.
But they are home safe and sound, that's all that matters.
Bishops Stortford is a shithole, btw
