Gate B7 was fairly packed when I got there, but most passengers decided to queue in an odd shaped curve away from the gate itself.

I toyed with the idea of walking to a Starbucks first thing in the morning, but alas, I just couldn't make it work.

I took the opportunity of having a chat with the Vickster by phone whilst I waited for Gate 3 to open to passengers.

Another relaxing start to the day, ahead of my first TP run of 2024. For a change, I had a lie-in! I didn't wake up until almost 6am. The cats were not impressed!

Another visit to Heathrow T3. Lots of good quality lounges to choose from.
