The waiting........

Even though I booked my flight much less in advance than usual; the interim 10 days or so has been an eternity. The worry about things going wrong in this brave new world of the post-Covid(?) era has been intense. Running from anybody who coughs; scanning the room for people who look "Covid-y" and backing up. It's a minefield!

My fit to fly PCR test was a nerve shredding experience; Freddy Kreugar haunting my febrile dreams. A 12 to 14 hour wait for the results.......12 long, long hours. BUT, an email about 6 hours later informed me I was Covid free!! A negative result.....just don't breath in until Phnom Penh. 

So now, sat in departures waiting for my flight. "Flight" in both senses; fleeing a European winter and the obvious. A chance to catch up on all the films I've not seen for the last 2 years.
