I encountered an obese woman with an offensive posh southern accent on the airport parking bus in Stansted, After she'd successfully prevented me (or anyone else) getting on and then getting anywhere near the luggage rack for several minutes she announced (several times) that she "didn't walk so well" She was offered several different seats on the bus but after inspecting each one, declined whilst holding us all up for even longer.
Then it transpired that she was travelling all the way around the car park because she'd lost her car park ticket - not her fault of course - it had been taken from her by the check in staff and not returned (yeah right).
She engaged Mrs PSB in a pretty one way conversation "I don't walk so well" (I resisted the temptation to suggest a reduction in pie and cake intake might help), then asked where we were from and promptly announced that she'd never been there, which I regarded as a small blessing.
You don't pay a tiny bit extra for meet and greet parking?
Drive to the terminal doors, hand over your keys and walk in.
Is CUK suddenly the home of Labour voting paupers?
I think it's time for me to move on.
In my defence - Mrs PSB had parked the car on her arrival - I travelled First Class on the Stansted Express on the way out - we flew out on different days - I was just giving her a hand with her luggage before catching the train back to the steaming Metropolis. It was the chauffeur's day off.
