Up at 3.30am after 4 hours of sleep. Finish packing, make lunch, take out
rubbish. Out the door at 4.30. The taxi drops me off at 4.45. Past security by 5am, most of the shops are
just opening, setting out signs and restocking.
As I pass through the main lounge for international flights,
I’m startled to learned that a new pope has been elected: Francis! My first reaction: What would my mother think
of this? A pope named after her
favourite saint! What would the saint
himself think of this? Is it an oxymoron
to have a pope take the name of the patron saint of humility and otherworldliness? Or is it a hopeful
sign?
My gate hasn’t been announced but I head for Gate 28, and
sure enough, the cabin crew are sitting around looking bored, while the only
KLM jet at Glasgow Airport waits outside at the end of the jetway.
I’m off to Veldhoven again, to start another round of EFT
Level 2 training there. I’m in the New
Dispensation: I’ve brought almost all of
the EFT training I run into the University of Strathclyde’s economy, and I’m
delighted to have it as part of my official job now. It might be 5am at Glasgow Airport, but I’m
on the clock and pleased to be looking forward to three days of intensive
training!
