Finished cleaning the house and gave Gabriel one last call just to check he was stil coming. He was. Then nos 29 bus to Turnpike Lane tube,change at Finsbury Park onto the Victoria line to Victoia to catch the Gatwick express to Gatwick. Well named these train lines eh? All very smooth 'till then but of course the flight to Madrid is delayed by two hours. We finally arrive at 11.30pm to be greated by....nobody. There is no connecting flight to Buenos Aires on the board so we go through customs, helping this lady with her 2 carry on bags and tiny baby. We discover the other side that the flight has gone without us and Aerlinas Argentinas are putting us up in a hotel and our flight will be tomorrow pm. The baby lady, Lisa is in a bit of state so we do some more bag carrying and I let her use my phone to call her mum......... in Chile......twice. Seemed to help and now we have an invitation to stay with them in Santiago, which is a result. They are originally from Wales and Lisa's mum moved out to Chile 4 years ago, baby Ruby is 13 weeks old and is coming courtesy of granny. The tickets arrived when lisa informed her she was 8 months pregnant. Now writing this on the pda staying in thee largest hotel in Europe. It is big alright. And now Iīm posting this up in the foyer waiting for the coach to atke us to the airport. The whole PDA memory card reader thing seems to work ok. Dunno if itīll be so easy in Argentina.......
