    I think Mr MWC is also a keeper :T.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Thank you for your concern ladies

    The word that comes to mind is shambles... that'll teach me to fly with an airline I've never heard of...!!!

    Finally made it to an airport hotel after much waiting around. Alarm set for 04:15 :eek: although chap at airport didn't seem overly confident that flight tomorrow morning would leave on time as there is no plane there...
