Friday/Saturday runaround

Hi all

Excellent shots! I think it’s the first time I’ve ever seen a Thai and EVA aircraft in the same photo thread – they both have immense sentimental value to me! 🙂

Great shots there, can’t wait to spend some time at LHR next Wednesday after arriving from BCN.

Taxi-£10

Had to laugh at that! I really haven’t got a clue how much it would come close to, but I think we’re talking over £100! Taxi to STN from London (25 miles) is about £40-60 depending on time of day. LHR is a good 65 miles or so frm STN….therefore I guess somewhere between £90-120.
