So, got up at 0-my-god-its-early, got the train, then tube to St. Pancras.  Tube took about 20 minutes.  National rail enquiries told me it would take 45.  Had enough time to catch an earlier train and have breakfast.  St. Pancras has been done up nicely since they added the "International" bit to its name.  Had done the online check-in thing so just needed to dump my bag.  Could probably have had another hour in bed. 

Luton airport has the oddity of check-in/baggage drop on one side and departures in a completely different direction.  Was hardly any queue when I got to departures.  About 3 groups of people in front of me.  The people in front of me had a problem so there was a substantial queue by the time it was my turn.  Was flying easyjet, so don't exactly expect any bells or whistles.  As long as they take off at about the right time, and land at the right place I figure they've fulfilled their end of the bargain. 

Arrived at the other airport.  Passport control seemed too easy.  Was squished to death by tinkerbell1980 and said hi to medium_jock .  Went to hire car place.  Was a bit confused because I assumed that I'd already sported out all I was getting with the reservation.  Had fun relearning to drive (automatic on the wrong side of the road (the wrong side being the right side)).  The brakes are a bit sensitive so need a little practice getting to grips there.  Drove fairly gingerly to Tink and Medium's place making sure I had lots of space to slow down and stop.  Relaxing evening - had spaghetti and then saw Little Shop of Horrors.

Now - need sleep!
