HMP Heathrow

We are safely ensconced in our prison on the Bath Road at Heathrow Airport. Luckily it’s only a one night sentence prior to moving off to Icelandic shores on the morrow.

To be totally honest we have a nice hotel room, it’s clean and comfortable and has all we require. The view to the front is right on the runway, however we are looking into the centre of the hotel.

I’m only joking using the HMP and prison title, it’s been a good journey down from the East Midlands to West London with only minor delays on the way. We did it in good time.

If you are familiar with British Motorways I have a question. I Have lived between Hertfordshire and Leicestershire all my life. I use the M1 motorway more than I’d like to, I have all my life. So why is it I have never seen the M1 motorway without major works and speed restrictions my entire adult life? I have never seen it open at its full speed potential. What’s that all about? And don’t get me started on so called “Smart Motorways”.

Anyway we are in our room all comfortable contemplating dinner. For the moment it’s a coffee for me and an English breakfast tea for the wife.

It’s an early up and out in the morning.

Happy days people.
