I was pleased to finally get back to my car at T5 Long Stay. It felt like it had been a long day and I was keen to get home to reaquaint myself with the Vickster and the moggies.

I always jog through Dublin airport - it just doesn't make sense to assume all will be well with passport control and security. You never know what you might find.

I got through Passport Control kiosk first time, although it took a lot of whirring to confirm I was OK to enter the UK! From there, I headed up to the Arrivals Lounge for a shower.

I arrived at Gate 18 in time to board alongside the last passengers. Of course, I got a red "no no" when scanning my face at the gate; BA needed to check my passport before I could get on.

I decided to go Flight Connections route for a change. It seemed to cause a stir as the staff didn't really know what they were looking for on my boarding pass and were getting confused between domestic connections and international connections.

After a quick dash to passport control, it was fairly evident it was a quiet time for the airport. There were no other aircraft sat at the 200 gates and the corridors were empty. I think I woke up some of the border team when I got there.

Heathrow T5 was fairly quiet after taking the lift up to Departures on level 5. I thought about popping into The First Wing (TFW) check in area to get my boarding pass validated, but due to the queue, I decided to head straight through security.

The start of another trip beckons and another few days away from home. Hopefully, the Vickster can shake the cough that she now has, and fit in some exciting stuff to keep her mind off me not being at home.
