Airport is packed today. Why can't foreigners queue properly?

Queuing is a uniquely British thing. Foreigners of every hue elbow and jostle.

See pictures and news reels of queues of people waiting patiently to buy food when rationing applied during and after the war and compare that with films of the fighting for food rations wherever charities set up distribution.

I wondered that.

Perhaps it was an alternative to wearing one of those spikey things on his leg.  rubschin:

I remember Andy Hamilton on "Have I Got News For You" talking about those. He said they wear them as a reminder to themselves about the sacrifices Jesus made for us, and questioned, "why don't they just put a post-it on the fridge like everybody else"

Soooo...a plane lands from Dusseldorf - I unloaded the rear hold (96 bags). Then loaded it back up (82 bags). And off it went back to Dusseldorf. Unfortunately a colleague didn't check the front hold properly and thus 15 bags went back to Dusseldorf. Ooops...

How could you miss 15 bags in an aircraft hold like...? Shrugs:
