Basically that plane just landed 1 hour before my flight went. I was reading Dan Ariely's second book on a comfortable chair in Gatwick's Lobby.
I heard announcemens about ''you are free to use this lobby because this is cancelled''. I only saw that a flight to Belfast was cancelled so I figured it must be that flight
Meanwhile I still did not saw my gate number so I was starting to worry a bit especially when you are a bit tired.
Then within 1 minute several things happened.... An announcement of all flights incoming//outbound are cancelled, the screen where you can see which gate you have to be in went blank & people running around to find the service desk including myself.
Having the luck to be flying with RyanAir, I ofcourse did not get anything comped except a new flight which I had to do myself.
So I was escorted back into the main lobby//pre-security check to call//visit Ryanair.com to rebook my flight.
Luckily I could ask Ingrid for their phone number so I had to call them and request to rebook my flight.
At first they wanted me to travel to Stansted and then I insisted I want the next flight from Gatwick. I was pretty tired so I did not demanded the reserved seats for free but instead I paid 10eu for it. but they were comfy and I had a nice view on Kassandra, the steward
that flight went at 17:55 so I had like 2 1/2 hours so I had some dinner (beef in the cake with vegs & tea). also got free internet because the McDonalds was right next to it but I mostly watched How I met your mother.
I finally could board and stumbled upon 2 Ben & Jerries Icecream machines which reminded me of the bet with Ingrid
I was one of the last to board but I had priority boarding so I could skip all those other people and had my seat with more leg space & seating space unfortunately I fell asleep & could not play Counter Strike 1.6
Will write some more about what happened in London but every other thread has already flooded with pictures except those from Ingrid's personal camera

shall I upload it?
As long as we have ''Full media control'', sure ♦
yeah, I don't get this full media control thing btw
I thought my first exam was in 2 weeks but apparently it is in 7 days. So I had to take some strict measures in scheduling my life into cells of 1 hours in order to at least get a decent mark.
I do not want to go full 100% for it because EVwise I already passed the first year but more importantly these marks are not going to be reflected in my diploma (= importante for masters' degree )
Pokerwise, I will not play much until the 2nd half of my exams. Concerning Trading, I will invest more time into that after my exams as I am interested how this works and what style prefers me
I will return to Magic The Gathering though when Avacyn Restored is being released. I am aiming to play Standard/Block Constructed, Limited & maybe Modern. I am still debating whether to play online as well but I probably have to
Sportsbetting wise, I put a poor 1.72:1 when Bayern played Real for over 2.5 goals. Luckily Gomez scored the 3rd goal securing me the money but I could get 1.9+ at BetFair but unfortunately I was too lazy to change my location I think
I still had $8 or so on Bwin so I bet that on the match. Now I bet it all again on Bwin for barca-Chelsea with Over 2.5 goals at 1.72:1. Best odds are on BetFair exchange hailing at 1.9:1 at the moment. I think you can squeeze 1.95:1
