Rare that I refuse to recover from jet lag but I'd rather stay a London Lark for the next few days as it'll make getting over the jet lag once in Canada about 7 hours easier.
@tomas I'm doing exactly that in HK. Refusing to set up everything until I've cleared or cleaned, and rewired, everything that I left here 4 years ago.
It's quite incredible how much stuff I can fit into my very small room. Last Christmas I threw out about 4x50L bags, yesterday, probably another 2…
First night back, get dragged into the party area. On a Saturday night. Hey, at least we had 2 cocktails at one of my preferred bars.
Back. Somehow managed 5 hours or so of light-ish sleep, which is about what I expected…
Relieved I didn't get checked at customs. Officer started walking towards us, turns out he was stopping some people behind me.
Because the contents of my suitcases paint me as being quite a heavy-drinking hacker, I think.
@matigo I've scheduled it already. I can sleep until 5 hours before arrival, after which I absolutely must be awake until after dinner (we land at 2pm), or it'll make the jet lag unbearable.

@indigo Longer than they will. 3 hours until connecting flight; 12 hours once on. But Cathay has a good entertainment system.

@matigo Yeah. Silly carry-on restrictions. Main problem was my violin: a lot of international airlines don't take it as being a piece. BA does.
Shit. In the rush to check in the second carry-on, I forgot to take my charging cables out of it. Have a USB charger, but no cables.
Sigh.
