John looked out the window and felt very releived to finally get off his flight. After nearly 17 hours onboard his legs were cramped as the man in front of him seemed intent to crush his legs by jamming the seat as far back as it would go. John wandered into the madness of London airport searching for Lady Penelope who would take him to her beautiful mansion so John could relax and enjoy his first time off in over 6 months. If only he could find her.

"Where is she," he thought to himself.

Lady Penelope sighed and felt very bad that poor John's vacation would start like this. She and Parker had been stuck in traffic for 3 hours now and she was growing rather tired of it.

"Poor John must be ready to bite hull metal by now." she said looking over the map again to see if another, less traveled route could get them to the airport any faster

By the time they arrived, nearly 2 hours later John could have indeed biten all the way through Thunderbird 3, but he kept his composure as FAB 1 pulled up to the front gate of the airport.

"Oh John, you poor thing, you must be completely famished. Parker find us a quiet pub where we can get a hot meal."

"Yes, milady." Parker replied pulling FAB 1 out onto the road again. "So how was your trip?" Penelope asked.

"Well.." John proceded to tell her of the late departure, security checks, losing his luggage when he had to change flights, and the stewardess who spilled tea all over his brand new shirt. "I'm just glad thats all behind me now though." he said.

A few minutes later Parker had pulled into the "Thirsty Traveller" pub and the three of them ate a wonderful bowl of beef stew. Lady Penelope paid for the meal and drinks. John now felt more relaxed as Parker had introduced him to a fine Brandy and they both had 3 glasses. As they got home John was very tired and went straight to bed but he felt good now that he was here and finally could relax.

John awoke to the smell of food and walked down the stairs, admiring the beautiful carving of the wood. He sat down beside Penelope as Parker poured them both coffee and brought out a delicious looking meal. "Good Mornig John, I trust you slept well?" Lady Penelope asked him politely. "Oh yes, it feels great to finally get some time off." John then proceded to eat his breakfast which was good, but he was used to Grandma's cooking and couldn't quite get used to the British flavors. However he thanked Parker for such a lovely breakfast and the three of them set off to show John the sights of England.

Craig Killborn watched as the blonde haired man set off with Lady Penelope and her butler. "O.K. now let's see what we can find in Lady Penelope's famous jewel collection."
