    Couldn't agree more. I have never had my handbag weighed though - thats a first:mad: And I've flown a lot and as long as my hand luggage fits into the checker I've been ok.

    To add insult to it all I am quite slim and would like to know do they charge the obese people more to travel with them than us slimmer ones:cool: because I can't for the life of me see what the difference is.:(

    oh lol....I had that exact argument a few years back after being charged for my luggage being 1kg over. (nothing against any overweight people here before anyone shoots me down)

    I checked in behind a lady who could not have been far short of 25 stones....I was at that time about 8 (not any more:o). i was mad at being charged for my extra kg. I said to the lady on the desk that they should weigh the passengers and luggage together and combine the weight, It's all contributing to the overall weight on the plane anyway.

    anyway I was left with egg on my face when I got on the plane and guess who I had to sit next to?.....I got quarter of my seat and her big bum took up the rest:rotfl::rotfl:

    Nope you don't need permission to apply for probate as usually people are aware if someone is going for it so can be there to contest if needed. What a stupid rule that is.

    Oh she was tackled, but to be honest she's not all there, she denies things, blames the fact that she's blind (registered) and can't see what she's throwing away - well don't bloody throw it away then!! :mad: She just rants away about anything and everything that's not even relevant and nothing gets solved.
    I for one will never have anything to do with her again.

    If she is blind can you challenge her getting probate as it could be deemed she could mis-manage affairs.

    The trouble is, the small print stipulates only 1 piece of handluggage and does say that handbags, laptops etc must fit into the handluggage bag. So, efectively, if the whole lot weighs more than 5 kg you are up the proverbial creek!

    What is the point of generating a high APG when you are not going to get it back? You are essentially just paying full price for those items.

    If you then buy stuff that is more expensive in Waitrose you are just wasting money,may as well buy it in asda if it is on offer - on a seperate shop.

    The only stuff I will buy with my glitches is stuff that is the same price as waitrose or N/A.

    PS I know it wasnt you that first suggested it, just replying in general.

    I don't understand it either. To me it's throwing money away. I only ever buy stuff I need if its more or less the same price or N/A also or pay for cheaper at A's in a seperate shop so not to waist any money :)
  • I dont think the 72's compare anyway do they?

    Yes, plenty of people have bought them
