New Instagram Account

These days everybody seems to be on Instagram, so I thought I would join the party and create an account for my blog. I've been quite enjoying posting live updates whilst I travel this week, it seems more fun and interactive than Facebook.

I was checked in very promptly by a lovely check-in agent who confirmed I was crediting today's flights to bmi (British Midland). It was nice for a check-in agent to actually know who bmi was, although she did call it British Midland (the name used prior to 2001).
