Bought a newspaper at the station this morning, walked to the coffee kiosk to get a coffee, put the paper down to stir the coffee then got on the train without the newspaper.

I did that by a whole week once. How ex-mrs HAB laughed. However, I called up BA executive club and they revalidated my ticket and at the airport I blagged a free upgrade too. Which was nice.Originally posted by moorfield View PostI've just missed my flight home. Oh clucking bells tulipy tulip.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

I went to a funeral today, an aunt-in-law. I and the deceased woman's daughters were chatting to the vicar outside the crem and I piped up with how their mother liked to play "corks", (a game like musical chairs except you had to grab a cork from the table and the person who didn't get one was out), and said she had sharp nails and usually cut someone or other.
The vicar said "Oh, I must learn to play that" and I said "Yeah, luckily you're safe now." There was an awkward silence until I excused myself.Comment
