So, in the real world he was able to stick one on yer then?


The contents of their pinnies is very secret it seems, so just as well it wasn't a Samurai Sword on that day.

There must be a lot of cheerful grumpy old buggers about these days.

Today I was following a little hatchback and he was leaving a big gap in the traffic that lots of people were diving into, at first I wondered grumpily what he was doing, then I realised he was leaving enough room to see potholes so he can dodge them, the potholes in BNE have got so bad that a big one would pr'oly rip the wheel off a little car like that.

Airlines and operators have "seriously oversold flights and holidays" relative to their capacity to deliver, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps has said.


Mr Shapps said it had been "very distressing" to see people facing more disruption at airports with "holidays cancelled and plans left in disarray".


Passengers are facing travel problems ahead of the Jubilee weekend, with several airlines cancelling flights.


Up to two million people are preparing to fly over the next few days.


Mr Shapps said the government had been clear that it was up industry leaders to tackle travel disruption, which was also seen at Easter.


The transport secretary said he would meet with airports, airlines and ground handlers to "to find out what's gone wrong and how they are planning to end the current run of cancellations and delays".

You rang, cuppa?

Up to two million people are preparing to fly over the next few days.

I bet those millions who will travel are all booked on the same flights. Bloody charmin'.
