Frosty's Wedding and our arrival in the UK

After arriving at Heathrow terminal we were immediately confronted with the congestion, pollution and people-madness that is London. Amazingly there is little or no compulsory declaration of materials that you bring in - no screening, no nothing! you just present your passport and your in.

We cruised through the two (yes 2!) duty free stores at Heathrow that sold alcohol and moved on through, (and it wasn't even cheap!). Of course we added a couple of bottles of Southern comfort and some champers to our already bolging luggage. Remarkale we somehow managed to check through from Thailand a whopping 57kg of luggage (excluding our carry-on, which would have been i excess of 18kg). Woohoo!

The tubes were literally beneath Heathrow airport and so it was easy to jump on the train and head for Brentwood. Although, I WOULD NOT recommend taking huge amounts of luggage through the trains if you have exchanges to make, as it is an undescribable nightmare! (too many stairs and overpasses to walk through)

But we made it and the wedding was awesome! My little sister married a POM!; if he was such a cool dude, i'd have to say "poor girl!" The wedding took place at Highlands House in Brentwood, Essex and it was lovely; the reception was awesome. This was held at their place of work - "The Leather Bottle".

On the 6th the BBQ was at Val and Garry's and it was memorable. Lovely family and good times.
