    Don't knock it. I spotted them in Tesco's last week, and while Mrs MF and the kids were in the cider aisle, he sneaked the own brand crisps out of the trolley, and replaced them with Walker's.

      And that's two First Class flights to India, return at the height of the season booked courtesy of BA Air Miles & two companion vouchers with enough left over to go to Dubai business class for a week at half term.

      I think a trip to India with the kids flying first class should really treat them what poverty is when we get there. I mean, they'll have to walk past Economy for a start.

          And I didn't have to sell myself to the Americans as a permie wage slave to get it.
          I take the clientco was paying for all the stays resulting in a diamond card, wasn't it?

          What sort of consulting ado you do?

            I'm sure they'll be sufficiently impoverished by 8 hours of your prattling.

                  Maybe you have not been in first class before, last time I went first class there was a seperate entrance.

                    Even if there isn't a separate entrance, you turn left through the door, not right, as any fule kno.

                      One of our local coffee houses accepts Tesco vouchers, which makes a £3 coffee far more attractive. It's a shame most restaurants taking them are either not that great, or haven't made it to our town yet.

                      I'm always tempted to use them on hotels but it sounds like they give you 4X face value off the standard hotel price which is typically much more than you'd actually pay when booking online.

                      Maybe a track day is the best use...
