OK i advise you to do 1 thing in your life and that is to go and spend 30 mins at the arrivals at Heathrow Terminal 3.

Yesterday was incredibly moving.

As i waited for Dawn to fy in with her 2 children i simply watched and couldnt help but get caught up with the sheer emotion that was flying around. People eager waited for friends, lovers, parents, children and any other kind of relative.

Two women yelled loudly and waved frantically at a woman they'd caught sight of.
A man stuck up 2 fingers at a friend.
Samll children ran towards parents.
A woman broke down in tears of delight as a family arrived.

It was brilliant. Suddenly it didnt matter. The world would go on and all the preceps on how to behave went out the window. People were actually moved. I was moved by the experience. Noting those who had no one and those who simply could not believe how someone they knew were waiting.

So go on... drive the miles and be moved. enjoy the delight and love of those arriving and share in the happiness of those who have been waiting..

Come on...
