Playa del Carmen, Tuesday

1447 at hotel bar. Last nigjt schatted with Jim and Valeria at hotel bar, joined z et al at might Pueblo as they finished diner hating the keyboard presentation of presents to z mum and sister the karaoke til about 2 or 3. Sang with z and Marta a couple of times. Then on to coco Maya at beach then just one atxlub bginning with m as was only place open. Bed 5isb . Woke up 1130ish checked out ok free lunch at la ceiba with some of guysthen had wander solo. May wander again post this beer. Pick up is 4 but we sort of meet 330ish.

1927 on plane. Aisle seat checked in online from hotel not sure I'd luck or judgement. 8h30m flight so supervquixk.  Was nervous but all ok now.

2016 sigh 30 mins delay while they fix minor problem with rear cargo door. Oh well. Not nervous anyway.

Has couple of veers and a tequila with jim and Valeria at airport which probably helped. Mxn360 for two beers and two tequilas and made it 400 with tip as guy brought it to table. Twenty quid. Meh. That's airports
Jim offered me some cash towards it but he got the first srinkj and has been more than generous at the hotel bar so I didn't take this money. May meet up with them to try some new tequila place in bethnal green.

Note for packing list - didn't twigg til Eddie pointed it out but there is a usb socket in back of seat on this flight so if had USB cable in daypack could use it to charge phone. Not a problem on this flight as I have two spare batteries both fully charged.

0249 Wed. Switched to London time. Still on ground in Cancun.

0356 still on ground in Cancun. Periodic announcements suggest the crew are rather in the dark too
Apparently decisions are being made in london. Spent last half hour or so stood in the galley with Jim having a chat. They had some habanero. Crisps which tjwh were kind enough to share, I am stating to ferl aa bit peckksh and it helps. I reciprocated with battered packet of halls mntholyptu from my pocket.

0455 still on ground. Announcement that repair completed and passed inspection so its just a question of paperwork and we may be off in half an hour.

0533 in air seatbeltvsigns just gone off. Announcement says you must not use the USB socket for fharging. Also you can apparebtlybuse GSM mobilesvtovcobect to their onboard service. That's a new one on me. As my phone doesn't seem to roam not going to try it. International roaming charges apply, dunno if that would be same as bejbf abroad or extra.

Landed about 1345.
