I only ever get as far as the Airport a couple times a year. San Francisco is a holiday destination for us, we stay the night if ever we go.

I'll pay you back on payday.

Do they even have Woodbines anymore?

Can you pop to Monsoon/Zara and Massimo Dutti all on Oxford St and get me some jumpers and blouses - medium will do
Oh and if you are anywhere near Stanmore or Bushey or Radlett can you pop to Hair on Broadway and get me a hair brush - the large one please.

Next, M&S and a half decent cup of tea. Why is it tea tastes nasty where I am? I have a nice kettle, PG tips but the tea tastes so different.

Could you make a detour to Cambridge and bang on my son's door and tell him I miss him (I'd ask you to give him a big kiss for me but that may be taking it a bit too far) I'm sure he'll treat you to a pint for your effort

Typical - up before the alarm on an aeroplane morning.

Anyone want anything from the duty free?

Well if you have time, a box of toffifees and a box of fazermints since it's the only place you can get them and if they have any sort of 3 for 2 deal let's do that.
