Last week we heard that BA crew were considering strike action around the time of my return. After a few days of nervously checking the BA website every 5 minutes, I found out that they would be striking on the 20th March - the day I was scheduled to be arriving into the UK and catching a connecting flight to Manchester. I considered whether to change my flights to avoid the possible chaos caused by the strike, but in the end decided not to.
Today I found out that there is a serious chance that the permit for bringing my ants back into the country might not arrive in time. It's been approved but has to be posted first to my supervisor Fabio in Sao Paulo, and then sent to me in Aracaju. So today, after much discussion we decided to extend my trip slightly - I will now be coming back on the 24th instead of the 19th.
I'll post a proper update of what I've been up to, apart from worrying about getting home, tomorrow, when I get a chance.
