³ÉÈËÂÛ̳

I'm writing this out on my blackberry whilst on the flight into the big apple (don't worry, it's in flight safe mode) and if I'm honest, I'm a tiny bit peeved! I'm flying out here sitting in economy. Now, economy is never a problem for me, just usually a problem for the person I'm squashing sitting next to however, when I'm the only person in my team sitting in economy because everyone else got upgraded for free in one way or another then I think I have a right to be!! Producer Kasey and Bad Boy Dari are living it up on leather couches in premium economy while Amit is currently rubbing shoulders with Shaggy in First Class. That man is so lucky, if he lost a fiver, he'd find a grand!

Moral of the story - don't check in to a flight on time, wait until right at the end when economy is full and they have to seat you in the better seats!

Joking aside I'm really looking forward to touching down in New York - all of the in flight movies and TV shows I've watched so far seem to have something NY in them so that's just adding to the excitement! Got a pretty packed weekend preparing and getting stuff together for next week's shows so I'm looking forward to getting stuck in. I'll keep you up to date with all the shenanigans, happenings and my thoughts right here via the blog.

Thoughts after the flight:
1) When did aeroplane food actually get good? I just had some chicken with white wine sauce and it was really nice. I'm impressed!
2) Superbad and Knocked up are both great laugh out loud funny films. They both will be added to the collection and if anyone from the Apatow production team are reading this and need an overweight black british guy in his early twenties to be in one of their future films; holla at me! Although knowing my luck after the flight seat fiasco, they'll holla at Ace, Bigz or Big Narstie!!
3) X Files + Lost + Heroes x The Matrix = Bionic Woman. When it comes on the TV in the UK, watch it. Michelle "Zoe Slater" Ryan is 100% believable as an american with super human strength and she's proper baadass! Anthony Truman will be kicking himself!!

**UPDATE** - We managed to snag ourselves a cheap limo to the hotel so the natural balance is restored!! (dont watch the ashy hands!!)

My hotel room is lovely and I'm opposite a good cheap diner that's open 24 hours. That's food covered...!

Tomorrow is the first day of work so I'm off to sleep. I'll keep checking in with you every day with updates, photos, videos and more.
