"These wild, windy spaces are surely my own."
Having a last look this morning.
I always get nervous travelling by plane,
leaving for the airport now.
In a couple of ours I'll be in an alien landscape.
Traffic, noise, crowds, smoke.
And hundreds of planes all trying to land at once in the same tiny space.
Somebody managed to throw flour over the Prime Minister yesterday,
and at our airport last week a girl climbed over the fence
and went to sleep in the cockpit of one of the planes.
All this doesn't inspire much confidence.
I'll be glad to get home again tomorrow night,
back to normality,
hopefully!
