6.10 a.m. yesterday morning and the sun was rising over the Hilton Waterfalls, a beautiful sight warm and by 8 a.m. I was on the sunbeds taking in a few rays before we packed up to leave Sharm El Sheikh.
Our taxi, organised by Classic Collections, arrived well on time so we said our farewells to the lovely Maria from Customer Relations, and the Johnston's of Egham- out to the airport where we were literally "wheeked" through the check in by our Rep. and were soon seated in the departure lounge. Sharm El Sheikh airport is just as bad as any other airport in the World with the usual high prices for food and drinks, and their Duty Free Store is not as cheap as you would expect.
Into Glasgow on time and the temperature a mild 11C - which was not too bad - over to the "Flying Scot" car park at Paisley and then home and we arrived at Penicuik it started to rain and the temperature dropped to 6 C.

I was sitting there and could feel a sense of gloom coming over me as I realised we were heading home.
We were boarded early by the Thomson staff, very nice, but the usual cramped conditions where everyone needs to be thoughtful or tolerant. In our case we unfortunately ended up with a young women in front of us who had obviously had more than her share of "E" numbers, add this to the fact that she was of Eastern European Origen, lacking in obvious social skills she did not give a "monkey's" about anyone else - she was a real pain, but nothing we could do about it.
