Yeah, I stood up on the roof here in deepest Osterley & saw the 3 BA
Concorde's Alpha Echo, Alpha Fox & Alpha Golf make their historic approaches
back to LHR this afternoon at about 4pm ... earlier on I spent a few hours
with my daughter Danielle but she was watching the same old R'n'B shite on
the crappy music channels although she was mildly amused by The Darkness
("he's so gay" she said) ... I'm currently listening to Idavoll Symphony
No.1 - it's a bit good folks ...

I'm sure you'll see one of those last few flights somehow....

I think you told me that Danielle enjoyed the Astoria show - an education
that gets her away from the evil that is boy/girl bands has to be a good
thing...

Hey Jane, it's a sad affliction and worth nipping in the bud ... to be fair,
I've had a few people come up to me over the couple of weeks and I just
can't summon up the enthusiasm ... mind you, the fact that I live under the
flightpath to LHR has probably got something to do with it ... it seems a
bit crazy that the relevant authorities can't extend the deadline beyond the
centenary of flight (9th December 2003) but that's just typical of lost
opportunities ...  anyway, I've got this Friday off work, when the last
official BA Concorde flights return to LHR but I'll be spending the day
looking after my 17 year old daughter Danielle ... I just hope she's
recovered from the Killing Joke gig (Sunday) at the Astoria ... after her
only previous gigs, the Spice Girls and 5ive, it was a bit of an education !

Regards,

Antoni

... just flew past my window on it's last ever flight out of Manchester
Airport.

I'm not normally a plane-spotter, but it felt like a significant moment in
history, Jane
