Hedgecutter Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I can't say anything as I almost missed a flight having sat opposite the gate in departures (playing Age of Empires) for about 4 hrs prior to boarding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar_Army Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Only ever missed 3 flights. Chicago-Atlanta , no matter how quick we moved it was never gonna work. Lesson learned. Avoid going through immigration while having an internal connection if you can. Charles de Gaule-Heathrow. Again never gonna happen due to times between connection. Lesson learned. Never completely trust your travel agent. Boston-LA should have happened as had 5 hours between flight. Lesson learned. Don't allow 5 guys to use the free scratch cards that allow you to buy half bottles of whiskey for 75p in Manchester then once on the bevvy in Boston airport crack them all open to share with American guys you meet in the lounge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put all my stuff in the tray at transfer security on arrival in Dubai and went through the scanner but my passport was in my pocket, so went back and put it in a separate wee tray. Got through the other side and picked up all my stuff in the big tray and off I wentIt was only when they were checking passports at the gate during boarding of the India leg I realised I didn’t have my passport. Cue mad dash back to security to retrieve my passport but too late by the time I got back to the gateFanny 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's had breakfast, she's showered, hair and make up done, lunch is made, jacket and shoes on - she's effectively all ready and her next step would be to leave the house and get in the car, she's already running a bit late. She starts panicking "oh no, does the car need defrosted" (it's still dark outside) and proceeds to stand in the living room with the blinds open, big light on and staring intently to ascertain if the windscreen looks frosty. Just leave the house woman and you'll see if the cars needing defrosted! What she means is why haven't you been outside to check for me and scrape it so I can just jump in and drive away 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She doesn't own a horse! she looks after other people's horses when they're away, giving all the benefits without the stable, food & vet bills.

Sounds very much like the relationship between me and the Tayside WPC I was seeing between Mrs a-p-1 and the now Mrs a-p-2 Spoiler Although as far as I can recall she never stuck a thermometer up my bottom, with or without KY. Spoiler Might occasionally have been a cheeky wee finger though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently owners of stallions have to wash their willies or they get infections. Takes a vigorous rubbing behind the foreskin with Fairy Liquid. That was her excuse for doing it, anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The horse's cock could rot off before I polished its apple. One of the many reasons that the SSPCA would never let me own a horse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlipperyP Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 You can all put it down in your notepads, that they don't change over here in Thailand. When she cooks (she is a great cook) the kitchen looks like a wedding party for 300 has just been served. Needless to say I do all the washing up (I'm a great washer upper).

scottsdad Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Wife: "When you take that parcel for to the shop to deliver it, can you pick up bananas and a bunch of flowers for my workmate?" Me: "What parcel?" Wife: "It needs to be at the shop by noon for next day delivery." Me: "What parcel? What shop?" Wife: "Oh, did I not tell you? I need you to go to the Hermes shop and hand in a parcel for delivery." Me: "Hermes shop?" She looked at me like I was insane for not knowing all this stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
