The annual exodus of escaping Brits wishing to avoid dry Turkey dinners, brussel sprouts, vile stuffing, disgusting Christmas pudding, the stormy , wet , windy weather and their kids sitting like Zombies on their X Boxes, Playstations and new mobile phones, FORGET IT!
The annual "Britshit Airways" Christmas strike is upon us causing even more misery at overcrowded airports, R*an Air check-ins, over-expensive Starbucks, filthy, stinking bogs and nowhere to sit!
"Thankyou "Britshit Airways" you've f****d my holiday and forced me to stay in the country nobody ever wants to be in at Christmas!"
"Now I'll have to suffer the Queens message, and crap TV shows instead of laying on the beach in Turkey (non-dry type!) or skiing through the powder snow in Switzerland (Minaret free!) enjoying the gourmet pleasures of the Cote D Azur, or Italien Pasta, Bella, pina col?das in Florida, and it's all your f*****g fault!"
Screamed thousands of stranded Brit Exodites on hearing the news!
R*an Air are trying to accomodate stranded BA passengers and have "dirt cheap" offers (?0.19) on their flights to the "Sunny South" only problems are, the added costs:
A seat cost ?100 xtra, visit to the bog = ?10, cup of shite coffee ?6, toilet paper ?4, seat belts ?7,50, look up the stewardesses skirt ?25, paying the pilot to land the plane ?50 per passenger, safety demo ?10 and last not least, putting the stairs against the plane when landed ?5 per passenger!
BA you bastards!!!!!
lol: lol: lol:
-
I don't care, I'm not going anywhere lol:
-
Likewise tel ~ sod the lot of them, good for BA staff, jetting off on holiday over Christmas noooo: ... bloody traitors to their country if you ask me. What's wrong with a Christmas of repeat TV shows, soggy sprouts and Aunt Nellie coming for tea on Boxing day? lol:
-
There are a few unhappy souls here in the office today.....checking flights , trying to rearrange plans , wincing at the prices of alternative flights when they are available happy100

I am at the mercy of fooking Virgin Trains. If they went on strike it would be hard to tell the difference from their usual service evil:

That was my Driving instructor eeek:
Regular driving lessons on a Wednesday - pick me up at 11 - drive into the countryside for a pub lunch - drive home for about 2 - 3 pm depending on what other lessons he had.
Nothing ever happened - not for his want of trying - but I was getting a 3 hour driving lesson for the price of one with lunch thrown in and could rebutt his suggestive comments and actions even then whistle:

scared2:
I assume you learnt to drive in a tractor/combine harvester or similar scared2:

Yeah Yeah ~ And you never make typos eh? noooo:

Thanks mate evil:
How exactly do you come to the incorrect conclusion that I'm a 'perv' then ey? HOW?
A perv is someone who secretly letches I thought.
Apology will possibly be accepted when forthcoming.
Also, wouldn't want to live in or near London at anytime, but especially now you're going down there, flamin' great mouse faced jessie. ::)
I shall be going out for a crimbo eve drink on my own this year. Bliss. cloud9:

(i) Growler is always welcome at the kennel
(ii) The hash (#) is a nasty American way of saying "Number"
(iii) Mrs S#2 does indeed think he is a very nice man. Her exact words having met you were "What a pleasant chap, thought you said he was bearlike .... rubschin: he is rather cuddly I suppose"

redface:
I do try...sometimes. If folk are pleasant to me I see that as a bonus and respond accordingly.
I expect the worst from most though, and am rarely disappointed tbh. Shrugs:
Call me an overly cynical old bastard if you want. ::)

Looks like your guests will be arriving after all BM
The British Airways cabin crew strike will not take place this Christmas after the airline was granted an emergency injunction preventing the planned 12-day walk-out.
Almost a million passengers had faced misery during the holiday season because of grounded aircraft but were given a reprieve by the High Court today who ruled that the ballot of members was illegal.
-
Gonna be top notch first class helpful obliging cabin crew service on all flights over crimbo then ey? whistle:
Think I'd rather walk tbh.
-
And so what if the cabin crew did strike? Why does that stop a plane taking off and landing? It would save money with less fuel being used with fewer people on board. Do we really need these raddled slappers or mincing queens blocking up the aisles trying to get us to buy overpriced tat? Safety demonstration? Put a video on.
Are there really that many passengers who don't know how to put the seat-belt on?
Food? Just tell passengers to bring a packed lunch for longer flights and put a few vending machines on for drinks.
Pissed-up bloke causing a racket? Without the irritating finger wagging of the trolley dollies, I'm sure a suitable number of other passengers would issue swift justice.
You could probably even have a ciggy without being accused of polluting the air that is already laden with carcenogenic particulates of oil used within the scavenger system.
Cabin crew. Fuck 'em I say.

Most of them travel on 'the other bus' anyway, so yes, I suppose you could.

So who's going to risk booking a flight in January with BA at ridiculously cheap prices because no bugger will trust that they won't be on strike or in administration by the time they are due to fly rubschin:
