Back in the fog

Our return flight from Beijing was delayed by one hour at departure due to "technical problems" on the incoming flight, always a bit worrying, and then we had a really smooth good flight as compensation. However when we neared Heathrow there was the inevitable fog and we were "stacked" in loops around the airport to allow waiting flights to get landed and others to take off. The food was as bad as ever and I fail to see why BA cannot serve up a half decent meal like Virgin does!
As we had landed so late we missed our connection and had to re-book and pay an extra fiver for the privelidge! We eventually arrived home after 10pm instead of the anticipated 7pm and dropped into bed without eating and just pleased to be at home again.
We might need to go back to Nanjing in March or April so should be a bit warmer then.
