Gatwick

We left home at 1pm and took the 3.5hr trip down to Gatwick airport in the gloomy and misty British weather trying to avoid the Morons that can’t drive on the way. After a couple of near misses including an HGV that thought it was a good idea to pull straight across the front of us we finally made it to our park and ride car park at 4pm.
Once we checked the car in it was a 25 minute drive by bus to the departures at the south terminal where we had to queue for 45 minutes to check our luggage in. This is the most luggage we have ever brought on a trip. Both our cases were full to there weight of 23kgs each and we hardly had any clothes.
What we did have was a double gas stove, a single gas stove, an omnia oven, a heavy duty tyre repair kit, 2 boxes of car fuses and electrical testing equipment, 600 tea bags, a small jar of coffee, sugar and hot chocolate, and various tools to help in an emergency. This was not going to be an ordinary trip.
After making it through security with no problems and then hanging around the departures lounge we boarded our flight on Norse airways at 7:30pm and took off at 8:30pm.
Destination Cape Town.
