Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[tikay]

Ralph and I had similar problems on our flight home. We checked in online and were allocated separate seats. When we get to the airport a  frozen faced old minge on check in desk says "Sorry, flight full, nothing I can do"

Arguing with this bint is obv not going to work, so we resort to flattery and lies. 10 min later we are sitting together in the extra leg room seats.

You can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar.

So very true. Beats "now listen here" in-yer-face stuff every day.

You must be better than us then. FWIW - When you check in online you could have chosen your seats. The problem we had was not being able to actually check in online.

If I could have got a word in edgeways I might have been able to tell him he has a nice arse or something.

LOL.

We tried to choose seats, it just allocated us separate ones.

Our girl was dark skinned, but her name badge said Gwyneth.

"Is that a Welsh name?"
"Why yes, it is" (Lucky guess)
Kerching!

<Whispers> "Er, I have a bladder problem and need to sit close to the aisle and the loos"
"I'll see what I can do"
Kerching!

I took it as a PM being sent without using the feature...to remind someone it's there and they need to use it.  At their earliest convenience of course.  But I could be wrong.

Nope, I've tried to decypher that and it still makes no sense.

First time I've ever seen "decipher" spelt that way. Must have changed since I was at school.

I think you'll find that the way you spell decypher has changed to decipher since you were at school, as decipher is the American spelling that is becoming more commonly used in British English.

Please remember also my age - I won't get another job, after Sky, so I may as well give my all in this "last proper job". Things do look very different at my age, trust me!

Yes, blurred.

was that Virgin ?

my brother in law had a funny experience after getting on the plane this year at Orlando going back to glasgow - someone was sitting in his seat. turns out there had been a screw up and two boarding passes for the same seat had been issued.

The cabin crew tried to get this guy to move (he was sitting beside my sister and their 6 month old baby). but he refused, cos it was a bulkhead seat, he had booked this seat online weeks before etc  etc. Eventually the stewardess said "fine", and apologised to my BIL, and said "you will need to come with me and I will seat you somewhere else. unfortunately the plane is virtually full, so the only spare seat I have is in upper class. I hope that will be ok for you". At this point the guy stood up and said "ah its ok, I think I will move", and was promptly told to sit on his arse as the seatbelt signs were on, and if he didnt he would be removed from the aircraft.

class.

Excellent!

Bet your sister was happy.

"Bye love - enjoy sitting with the baby and a random arsehole - I'm off to drink champagne and get pleasured by stewardesses." (which is what I would assume happens in upper class, considering the prices)
