Did anyone catch the story over Christmas about the Miami flight that overshot the runway on landing?

It was a BA 747, with none other than TB on board, on his way to spend a freebie holiday at BeeGee Robin Gibb's Miami Beach mansion.

Seems the pilot couldn't see the taxiway lights very clearly and rolled over them. Nobody hurt though, and it was rumoured he was found humming that old BeeGee's number 'The lights all went down in Miami, Florida...'

Sounds like Tony is getting used to being on vacation. That is a skill which will come in handy.
