En route to Bangkok

I'd forgotten just how long flights are. At the time of composing this, we've only just left Australia – the map says we're over the Timor Sea and have 4 hours 42 minutes to go before we arrive at Bangkok. So we're not even half way there! We've had our main meal (served very quickly after take off), I've watched “The King's Speech” and had a snooze and it's only 7.30 pm Melbourne time. I really don't want to sleep too much, otherwise I won't sleep tonight (we're staying overnight at Bangkok).
The Thai lounge at Melbourne was really good. Denis and Donna very kindly gave us a lift to the airport and we were checked in within minutes. It took a few minutes getting through security and immigration, but we still had lots of time for drinkies and nibbles. Just as well we went gently on the nibbles, because they served us a multi course meal as soon as we took off.
We've hit a bit of turbulence now which is making it challenging to hit the right keys on the netbook's small keyboard, so I'll save the rest for a later post!
