The Beginning (19/10/06) - Eva comes good !!!

After a traumatic goodbye to my beloved family, my father took myself and Alastair Galt (AG) to Heathrow to start our work assignment in Taiwan. We, along with former Eurotunnel colleagues are working to set up a High Speed Railway running from Taipei to Koashuing (345kms).
We arrived at LHR around 17:30 and checked-in. The queue for security was enormous but we struggled through (quite quickly). At the gate, we were told we had been upgraded to 1st Class (someones' got to do it !) and a superb flight was had by all.
Landing on time and with no problems with immigration, we arrived at the hotel, had a couple of drinks and headed off to bed.
