    Airlines. With two hours to check-in the ba5tard5 send a text to tell me our flight's been cancelled. Now major hassle to find another flight. On the plus side it gives me an excuse to write a rude letter to Grant Shapps

    I think the next 2 months are going to be a game of roulette for flights to Europe. Last time we experienced a short notice cancellation was for a flight to Quito, Ecuador, where we were connecting up with a flight/boat tour to Galapagos. Only found out when we went to check in and saw the time of the flight was now 12 hrs later which meant we'd miss the connection and the tour. No warning. Luckily Audley managed to find another indirect route and we had to pack and leave in 4 hrs flat and stay overnight in Amsterdam. Hope you manage to sort out another flight.

    Mrs Lloyd is sorting something. I'm busy writing to Shapps. Is 'useless w@nker' hyphenated?

    We had exactly the same a few weeks ago flying Gatwick to Seville with BA. They would do nothing except book us on to their flight two days later, despite their obligations to use alternative airlines. On the plus side they paid the statutory compensation of €400 each plus expenses like extra fares to Gatwick, car hire and hotel cancellation fees etc. and we ended up getting a slightly cheaper holiday.

    Sky subscription packages randomly going up when they feel like it and the mad wait on the phone to have a go and get it all taken back off again.

    The most pointless abuse of customer loyalty ever as I always end up getting a better deal.

    I’d like to point out that it’s perfectly fine to write to Grant Shapps and call him a ‘useless w@nker’ however well your flight went. You are welcome to extend this to any other politician for that matter.

    Wouldn’t bother with Venice by the way. We went and it was completely flooded. Apparently it’s always like that. Avoid.

    Absolutely awful airline, a few years back they “didn’t have a plane” for our flight home from Gdańsk.

    You don’t have a plane? You’re a fecking airline!

    Diana Ross really didn't fulfill the legends that still have it slot. Actually feel sorry for her. Feel more sorry for the people at the front that heard it all.

    Lovely places. Are you perhaps more angry about the march of time and human frailty?

    Went to an Airbnb recently and there wasn't any shower gel provided so popped to the village shop. Limited selection so went for a Radox lemongrass and something or other.

    It smelled of washing that had been left in the machine for a week and B.O. How can a company sell a shower gel that makes you smell worse when you come out of the shower than when you went in?

    When you take a banana from the bunch and the top of your selected narna tears because the stalks are too tough and you have to eat it straight away.

    Blinds. However I pull a blind they always travel up when I want them to travel down and down when I want them raised.

    I appear to have no capacity to learn how they function.

    And sometime you don’t notice and you go to get a delicious 11 o’clock banana from your bag only to realise it’s mostly brown mush coated in tiny flies.

    When I was a young man who had just started secondary school, I had a banana in the end pocket of my puma sports bag, but the bag got squashed and the banana was a casualty.

    Rather than clean the pocket out, I vowed to never open the pocket again and just left it in there. About 6 months later, I cut the pocket off with a Stanley knife, which removed the problem entirely.

    Buying blinds from a reputable registered supplier usually means you are provided with a 197-page instruction manual so you can learn the various techniques necessary. Be sure to translate all 17 languages included so as not to miss any nuance.
    Alternatively, undertake an adult education course on the subject: full-time will only take one year but if choosing evening classes budget for about three.
    Nowadays, of course, there are online options but don’t be tempted by YouTube demonstrations. These will never show the brand of blind you have and terrible consequences can follow. Always commit to a course that provides comprehensive online help from a personal tutor. One-to-one support is invaluable.
    Good luck!

    Oh man, that must have smelled absolutely foul for a couple of weeks. Interesting experiment, I take it you went on to work in scientific research?

    Had something similar with a satsuma in a backpack. Just turned to green dust on discovery.

    **** ice cube trays. **** them to hell.

    Bag of ice from the shop for a quid, more ice than one hundred trays could produce and I swear it melts more slowly too.

    I noticed a mate eat a banana the other day and he left both of the ends, I asked him why and he said he saw a documentary and flies often come out of the ends. Never noticed that myself.
