En-route : Heathrow - Singapore !

 

Rohan Monico :-
Well the tour has begun. So far nothing exciting has occurred. We have just landed after a 13 hour flight. It was slow but we are a good way into our journey. I am looking forward to getting to Melbourne and that swim. The seats aren't the biggest ! Rohan.

Blair Abrahams :-
Hello parents, guess what I am on a plane - whoo-yea. Hope fish''s ok (and you of course). Blair.

Chris Craig :-
I am writing this from the plane after 2 hours sleep. Therefore, this is going to be short and probably poorly written. Apart from lack of sleep, things are going well. The flight entertainment has been time consuming - thankfully ! The food has been of usual aeroplane quality. Singapore now looms and I look forward to walking about and getting some good food. Love Chris.

Adam Chambers :-
Hi Dad ! How are you ? I have been flying for 12 hours, my legs ache and we are not half way yet !! I am having fun though. We are about to get off at Singapore. Please text mum saying Hi from me. I'll email you soon. Love Adam.

Jake Burgoine :-
Hello everyone (mum, dad etc), I'm on the plane, very bored. Watched all the programmes and aeroplane food is worse than dog food ! Having fun. Speak soon. Love Jake.

Matt Bennett :-
Hi Everyone. I am on the plane at the moment and everything is going well. The movies are good and I have had a good sleep. The food is bad as usual on the plane. Hope everyone is ok. I will speak to you all soon. Love Matt.

Bryce Titman :-
It has been a very good smooth trip so far. The plane journey has been a good one, having watched two ok fims (X-Men 2, Bringing down the house). It has also been very tiring journey because I have been trying to get to Oz time ! Bryce.

Sam Bryant :-
Well I got off to a predictable start, being late for the first rendez-vous, and with a last minute check of which way the water spins down the plug-hole (its clockwise) in good old blighty, we set off. The first leg of the flight has been uneventful apart from the extreme lack of leg room if the guy in front of me puts his chair back. Ah well. Anon. Sam.

James Lord :-
So far the journey has been good. We are on a 747 with TV's in every seat headrest. They play movies and games. I watched X-Men 2 and Anger Management. Its got load of games, the best ones being Gold Digger and Hangman. The journey to Singapore took around 13 hours but went alot quicker than I thought. James.

James Owen :-
So far the journey has been good and the TV's on the plane are really good. They have 10 decent games and loads of TV programs to watch. The plane is quite bad as usual. Its been about 12 hours to get to Singapore which is quicker than I thought. James.

Andy Court :-
Its been 17 hours and my bum is very numb ! drunken lots of water so I fully hydrated. There are TV's in the seats in front which is brilliant and I have watched X-Men 2 and Bringing down the house. I'll ring you soon if I can get the hours right. Andy.

Guy Titman :-
The flight so far has been good. Saw some films, Anger Management annoyed me greatly and I wanted to hit something. Not a good film. We have eaten lots and drank well. Just been through a choppy time and about to land in Singapore. I'm tired at the moment as only a little sleep. I've eaten all the food. The lady sitting next to me said "well I am still growing I hope". Cyaz for now. Guy.

Dom Thurmott :-
Its been a good flight with good TV and games. Food wuz alright. It has been comfortable and there is always something to do. Almost in Oz ! Dom.

Bryn Powell :-
The flight has gone relatively quickly due to good films and games. The food was ok. I haven't really been bored because there was always something to do. We are nearly there. Can't wait. Bryn.

Rupert Houghton :-
Hello family. I am fine so far which is not surprising because we have spent the last 11 hours in a plane. I have had a sleep and have kept up my water drinking. Rupert.

Philip Willshire :-
Hello family. Having a great time. The plane journey has been really good because there have been some really good films, and you can play interactive games. The food is ok and I didn't realise Heathrow was so big. Hope you have a good holiday and I will send some picture messages soon. Philip.

Alex Feary :-
Him Mum, Hi Dad, I hope you guys are ok. I'm just on the plane, feeling alright - well as alright as you can feel after a 12 hour flight with only 4 hours sleep. The plane is pretty cool though, because we've got TV's built into the back of the seats - and we can select which movie we want to watch. I watched X-Men 2 (again!) and some of Bringing down the house which was ok. Well we're just touching down in Singapore and I'm going to check out some of the shops and see if the airport really does have a swimming pool. Well I'd better go now as my ears are starting to pop. I hope you guys are alright as well and just be careful and I'll ring you on Tuesday. Alex. xxx.

Jesse Burgoine :-
Jesse here ! Having a good relaxed time. Not missing you yet ! Still on the plane at the moment. Will talk to you later. Lots of love. Jesse.

Sam Whittle :-
No report yet ! Sitting next to James Simpson & Rob Thurmott who don't want to write anything as parents have no internet access.

Alex Garraway :-
The flight so far has been surprisingly alright. The plane is nice and big and clean but the food isn't anything special. I've tried to stay up for the 1st half of the journey and change to Aussie time. The good films have kept me awake. I will probably fall asleep now.

Steve Monico :-
We arrive in Singapore at 11.10 Monday am (uk time). We only have 50 minutes before we re-board. No time for a swim !
