Regardless of the fact that she's quite pretty with a foxy voice, she's actually the most smug tŵát of the lot of them. You can only imagine the sarcastic and self satisfied voices emanating from the Mitchell/Coren household. You'd drown in smug in that place. Pair of pricks.

Wearing a belt with a suit? I think you should find a better tailor, or at least wear braces instead.

That was my point earlier.

I much prefer the look of a suit with a smart belt, even if it's just for show and doesn't hold the trousers up at all.

What I don't get is that it's not exactly taxing to move your finger a couple of inches and tell the ******* world which way you intend to turn. You utter, utter lazy *****.

Personally I'd remove a finger on the roadside for each offence of not signalling your intentions when driving. After all, if you can't be bothered to use your finger, then you don't really need it.

Sliced Bread....ok I like the ease of sliced bread its whatever they are putting in it nowdays. In the good old days bread went stale you threw it away or made it into all sorts of sweet delight ,bread and butter pudding, bread pudding (my nans was the best still cannot recreate it). You made breadcrumbs for stuffing whatever. Now it seems you get to the use by date and it turns the next day the mould starts to appear.
Its difficult out in the country to find a decent baker theres not one around that still bakes on the premises. I loved the old days the smell of the bakers the warmth of fresh bread baked on the premises ok you get the big supermarkets to get the smell, nothing though like your local bakers. Anerley at the bottom of the hill near my Nan and Grandads had one still some of the best bread ever. Be sent up the road to get the bread early in the morning bring it home and have a slice still hot for breakfast. Happy Days

BA - flights have 24 hour cancellation policy. Upgrading with points out, full fare back. Want to change the way back to the previous day. No difference in cost for the new return leg.

Apparently though they have to cancel both legs and the out leg has gone up in cost and they cannot guarantee the points upgrade will be available for the out leg. I don't even want to amend the out leg. Sorry sir.

So I am now flying with Virgin as I recalled I had some Virgin miles I had conptely forgotten about. For less money on the days I want to travel.

Not sure, flights are in early May so it's the post the changes, but I am genuinely baffled by the whole thing. I just want to change the return leg on an unpopular route (for BA) by one day which I am not even using points for and wasn't going to be any different in cost. Mental. But then I don't suppose a company who has eleven billion a year revenue particularly cares that it now doesn't have my two grand.
