Arrived safely at the hotel. On the downside the bt dongle doesn't work here EITHER, frigging useless thing, which means internet access is through my phone or the complimentary net access in the the lounge. Which leads me to the upside - totally random and unexpected upgrade, whoo! Complimentary soft drinks and snacks in the lounge plus internet access via a hotel computer.
Does mean that unless I cough up £15 for internet access in my room I won't be able to post the story I've been working on or chat to my mum on video chat. I'll see how much food I can stock up in here and if that offsets the internet cost I might shell out. I do hate having unposted fic burning a hole in my laptop, especially when it's someone's birthday :D
