I read that Ancelotti says Bayern will benefit from having a winter break.

[Pat Vegas]

Bayern are finished anyway, all washed up. Theo and Danno and .. Alexis-o will smash 'em.

Hmm. I saw on Italian sky sports we were playing Bayern Monaco.
Seems some sort of amalgamation of 2 teams.

[Sir C]

Is there anyway they could design it a bit better so the the windows and the seats match up.
I always end up with some kind of eye strain. Or some cund opening the window behind me that overlaps my seat waking me up.

Yes I fly economy.

They're originally designed with seats and windows matching but then Michael O'Leary comes along and demands they just cram in as many seats in as possible, so it all goes to cock.

Business class is your friend, f. For anything over 2 hours it's essential.

What do you want to be, the richest man in the cemetary?

Like the airline industry, everything dragged down to a level rather than up to a level. Socialism, in other words.

Well it's unlike the airline industry in that costs have skyrocketed at both the bottom and top ends to provide a service that is 'meh' even at best. Not sure how they've managed that.

You see, they've even had to resort to blatant cheating.

I believe that's Richard Branson's fault.

I tried to upgrade on my Vegas flights but I was forbidden to do so. Work politics.

All the wons on the virgin flight got upgraded to free. But on the funny side they got diverted to Ontario California and on the way back their flight was cancelled completely.

I've made my flights a bit more bearable as now I take some of those nicotine lozenge to take the edge off of things.

Typical Germans.

[Sir C]

It's far to expensive these days. I'd take them regularly. I liked it when I was a kid and was always looking at that red light that shows the locks are on. or sitting on the fold down seat

I took one in the last year from London Bridge to Enfield. cost more than £60 it's not something I am happy to do.

I will be popping off out east in April and seriously considered splurging on Singapore Airlines Suites class, but it's just too much money to justify. One day. Just for the experience.

I thought you'd got a bed before?

[Sir C]

I thought you'd got a bed before?

Oh you always get a bed in business. But this is a seperate cabin, with a double bed, and the use of a shower.

Chef is on call throughout the flight and the wide-ranging menu includes lobster thermidor

£7,500 each return. With business class at £2,500, I'd could countenance going as far as £5,000, just the once, just to have experienced it, but £7,500 is too rich for my blood.
