Pod Life

Yesterday morning, I took a space pod from the Thistle Hotel to Heathrow Terminal 5!

Okay, maybe not a space pod, though there was a time we might have called it a space pod or tomorrow pod. It was more like a personal monorail gizmo that operates on demand.

The public bus is way cheaper than a pod, but I was due to the airport at 6 a.m., so I was pleased for the easy option, though the regular buses are pretty easy in the UK.

Terminal 5 opened in 2008, and back in early 2005, Herr Marlboro and I visited the outskirts of the construction site on his XT Tenere. A pod was a much safer, warmer option.
