      Yeah, and can you imagine how much food waste you'd build up over a year or so, all of which should be composted properly ? The councils would do better by collecting food waste themselves in sealed containers and process it to produce fertilizer etc.

          Why not have a standard fare for every plane journey, based on distance flown times total weight (passenger plus all baggage)?

            Not a bad idea. I can imagine the queues at the weigh-in counter !

              Excellent idea. If some bugger is going to carry a bomb on board make them pay for the extra weight!

                Check-in girl : I'm sorry sir, you are 20 KILO'S OVERWEIGHT. You will need to leave all your baggage here or attend the mobile liposuction unit over there in order to fly today. Have a nice day.

                  Would a family of Midgets be able to go for the price of one Threaded?
                  I remember the good old days of this site when people used to moan about serious contractor related issues like house prices and immigration. How times have changed!?
