Case turned up 24 hours late, I'm going to request the airline upgrades me on trip home, it's the least the incompetent buggers could do.....

Heard that the UK is snowed in, haven't seen a flake in Scranton which is unusual for this time of the year

No, the least they can do is flag you for a flashlight up the rectum and a trip to a windowless interrogation cell. The War on Terror means passengers are less than cattle …

The North East escaped the snow yesterday, which makes a change. Sunderland's match was one of only two which never got postponed, allowing us to move within four points of Chelsea. ;)

Got home yesterday afternoon and am pleased to report that both me and my suitcase survived O'Hare this time, still had a 3 hour flight delay though so O'Hare still fuckin' sucks.

Midway was a breeze both ways. But the Ft. Lauderdale airport drove me to tossing my belt knife faster than Heston and Hoy recording a duet of "We Built This City."

Last time I travelled from NZ to UK I left on my NZ passport but when I got to Heathrow I used my UK passport to avoid having to queue etc..caused much alarm as apparently I was still in the UK from my last visit and Mr 101Walterton was lost in airspace- just shows Big Brother is watching.
Weren't watching me, I arrived back and used my UK passport with no problems to gain entry, how could I arrive back having never left according to any data they keep?

I really do loath flying, the fuckin' souless Airport Terminals, the non-smoking economy cattle pen that transports you, the food that is barely fit for human consumption, the miserable non-stop wailing baby that always catches the same flights as me, the fuckers who block the aisles by continually getting shit from their overhead, I could go on and on :(

There surely has to be a better way? Oh yeah I forgot, there is, it's called being rich enough for 1st or Business class :angry:

9 across in the Mirror crossword this morning....

Chicago airport formerly called Orchard Field (5).

I was stuck for a moment, then I remembered your unfortunate trip. It was O' fucking Hare! Thanks for the help mate.
