Soon the airlines are going to put a question on their booking application forms
Are you a member of SH? If the answers yes - they'll overbook the flight even more than they do now! rotflmao

Unlucky LG kiss

Well......... I got there but Im never ever ever trusting british rail or ryan air ever again.
I booked another flight with SAS and flew from manchester that evening! biggrin

I think it's a contageous thing with SH and everyone going away should be screened for some kind of avatiaton flu ;) , given a full once over by a strapping young doctor :rascal: and then packed off on their lolidays escorted by gorgeous army guys n gals..... mmmm
As it was I left the house at around am after leaving the Manchester social early :P so ner ner ! flipa

for neil! :D and caught the bus to picadilly.... all on time and things running smoooooothly
Dum dum derrrrrrrrrr
Try to collect my ticket but all of the six machines are not wrking properly and won't issue my ticket. When I ask for help they tell me to queue up and ask at the ticket office. confused

10 years leter I might have my ticket by the look of that queue. In my head are the travel demons telling me that cheaper isn't necessarily better service and I should have known better than to try to get to another city when there is a perfectly good airport less than a tenner in a taxi right from my door.........
10years later I get my tickets. :D I'm a happy bunny and skip off to find the train.....

...... annoucement......Inform you........ liverpool....... delayed........ arrive.......... aproximately from platform........ Sorry for ....... inconvenience...........
<ding>
banghead

Why is it the information I actually need to hear that is always bloody muffled??? and why do all tannoy readers live in a tank of water??? :?
SO I look around the station and see if there is any additonal info on the boards... no. Off I trott to join the customer information queue. rolleyes

Hmmmm..... tick..... tock... tick.... tock.... ahhh someone actually wants to do what they get flucking well paid for.... helping me, however this being the help desk they don't have information on trains! :shock: So I just queued for 20minutes to find out the air temperature of Gothenburg??? Or even flight time of an unlaided swallow??? :? grrrrr mad

I finally get some information out of them run out of the station and jump into a cab. Look at the clock... yeah, I'll still make it... , one hour journey that gives me 1 and a half hours before the plane leaves. :D Sweet!
I congratulate myself for actually making it on time to the train for a change, jump on the train and sit there smuggly.
<ding> welcome to the manchester to liverpool train,we regret to inform you that we are delayed by 20 minutes....... blah blah blah <ding>
Ok, 20mins..... thats fine, leaves me one hour at the airport to get on the plane. Then at the next staion the announcement regrets to inform me that the train is now 30mins delayed and the connecting train is 3mins delayed... that then turns into a 10min delay once arriving at the second train. :banghead: the realisation that I won't make it has dawned on me. sad

I finally get to the airport and they refuse to let me on the flight even with 25 minutes before take off. :( So I pay to tranfer the flight just before I get a phione call from my beloved fella to tell me that Ryanair dont fly to Oslo as advertised, they fly to Torp.......... four fucking hours of mountain road drive from where I need to be. :banghead: So I cancel it and then get a mail saying that due to admin charges being more than the cost, there is no refund due........ I'm about to explode at this point, I have to get to Oslo asap otherwise I'll miss the brother in law's party (which is the whole point to this farce so far)
Anyway, get back, book with SAS, pay and leave the house. Check in get on flight, snuggle down and sleep for two hours. get off the plane and meet my boyfriend who now feels like an extra in the film "The Terminal" where a guy gets stranded and has to live in the airport.
So I made it... had a good weekend break and have made it home, in one peice and a little wiser in the ways of British Fail and Ryanscare.
