The alarm clock rudely awakes me, ..omg it's 3.30am. I've only had 2 hours sleep having spent the previous evening at the RoeBuck Inn with the guys doing the pub quiz (which we won...again).
It's officially day one on my big adventure to the US of A.
Leeds/Bradford airport to Heathrow was quick and the transfer to Virgin Atlantic plane was trouble free, oh yes got frisked again I must just look like a terrorist.

The flight with Virgin Atlantic as usual was outstanding. Service, food, entertainment excellent. Inflight film watched was 'You don't mess with the Zohan' starring Adam Sandler - very very funny.
Was a tad dissapointed that the Dallas Cowboys Chearleadrs weren,t seated next me nor on my flight *sigh maybe next time. Poor little kiddy infront of me did puke as we landed, served him right for eating all that ice cream hehe.
Was grilled in customs for about 10 minutes re my situation of being unemployed yet coming over with several thousands of dollars and staying 2 months. What part of I'm 40 years old and have managed to save some money throughout my working life didn't the passport official understand??
Strange thing is no one mentions anything about my suitacse being half full of Galaxy and Terry's chocolates, Oxo cubes, Huggies bed mats and Bisto's chip shop curry...go figure :)
Total travelling time from Leeds to San Francisco was 14 hours. Phil met me at the airport with his new ??stylish look; unshaven grey beard and he has obviously lost some weight too, his face is looking a little thin and gaunt. He looks like a man in dire need of an 'In n out' burger :). It's great to see him again though.
Hello San Fran I am Brian ... 'the eagle has landed', I repeat 'the eagle has landed!'
