Hi there,

well after a disappointing start to the trip as I mentioned with the entrance of the Clubhouse looking like an M4 service station things slowly got DRAMATIC. After I posted my message I returned to hubby and seat to find Full English waiting and a glass of the Finest New Champagne...must say was v-nice (3 glasses later). I went to then speak with a cowshed lady to say i was ready for my Spray-tan. Was greeted by a lovely beauty therapist who helped me set up my spray tan "positions".
All was going well...both sides nicely coated when the FIRE ALARMS started to go off! yes we had to EVACUATE!![:I][:$]
There's me in a Waffle Towelling robe, a towel and my Winter fluffy boots trooping out of the Clubhouse to the evacuation point looing like a right PLONKER!!
Hubby took one look at me when I found him and he just creased. GREAT!

At this point the hallway outside the Crystal stairway is V-busy (saturday and all that) and everyone and their brother is looking at me and thinking...WHY?!!

I spend from September to December wishing my life away for an experience of a lifetime in the Clubhouse and spend nearly three quarters of an hour standing half Naked!!![:I] outside of it!

So as you can imagine I was the most embarrased person in the building and people were sort of bemused and puzzled as they passed me in the hallway!

All was over soon enough and they found that someone in Housekeeping had set off the alarm!

I will post a TR in the next couple of days when I am over my Trumatic experience!!

Sue I am so sorry your trip started out that way,though let's face it it can only get better...right?

Though as you can see from THIS we do have a kind of tradition here on V-Flyer so we will need pictures [:I]

Omigod! Reading that was hilarious. The image of you in the middle of T3 wearing only a towelling robe and fluffy boots while the world and his wife passed by just had me creased. [:o)]

What are you complaining about? You had the experience of a lifetime, didn't you?

Think positively. At least the BBC weren't there filming for the next series of "Airport" [:0]

At least after all that I managed to achieve Silver FC membership. Yeah!

Only 23 more tier points to AU!!!

See showing a sit of bod in T3 gets you miles....

Hubby said I looked like Bubbles from Little Britain...Not impressed. It did hinder me somewhat this morning in Revivals....was a little cautious when using the showers as i wasn't too sure on whether I could cope with 2 fire alarms in one week....or that Heathrow could for that matter

You have to laugh :D Difficult to imagine how Sue, but I am sure it could have been worse ;)

Sue I do feel for your discomfort, and I certainly would not have wanted that to happen to me, but I did giggle ... wonder if Virgin have such events covered in their plans!

Hey I am glad that I could give you all a little Christmas cheer!

I was slightly worried that someone on the inside knew someone in v-Flyer and put a thread online...."Bubbles De'vere spotted in Clubhouse" I could see it spread across the forum pages.
[:I]

Never mind.

Christmas Wishes and Happy new year to all my new friends!
