Life: I went to Gatwick Airport

I — Dwayne Hards, LCN's Founder — went to Gatwick Airport last Tuesday to photograph and spot aeroplanes, and I really enjoyed my visit.

When I visited Gatwick Airport, no-one seemed to be judgemental. The Airport's staff were also friendly, professional, and polite.


The Airport seemed quite relaxed in general because their staff didn't bother me when I was taking pictures of planes, and they didn't seem too uptight about terrorism; in actual fact, Tesco stores' employees seem to be more worried about their customers (and ex-customers) not wearing masks than an airport does about the high risk of terrorism, I have noticed.


I managed to get some stunning photos of aeroplanes at Gatwick Airport. If you would like to see some, or all, of these, please do not hesitate to email LCN.


The only issue I have noticed with airports — including Gatwick and Heathrow — is their expensive prices. For example, my small lunch from Gatwick's M&S store — including a large packet of crisps, a small bottle of flavoured lemonade, and a packet of chocolate buttons — cost my educational budget around £12.55. But, as this was a one-off treat, this didn't affect my educational budget too much.


Hopefully, I will visit visit Gatwick Airport again soon so that I can get some more amazing photos of the planes taking off and taxiing on the runway.


On my way back from the Airport, I was excitedly talking to my tutor about a boy that I like (I`m gay). I would like to thank my tutor for taking me out for the day (Tuesday, 3 May 2022).
