Am I the only one who have one of them days started of flight seven and a half hours late arriving back, stagger in about five this morning opened kitchen door water dripping from the ceiling from the rad in the bathroom isolated that and to top it all the warning alarm on the deep freeze was bleeping like crazy. Just the kind of things I was wanting to happen when as all know the laundry has to be done as soon as you unpack even if it is six in the morning. :cry2:

Re: One of them days
Its that time of the year when it all seems to happen, just got an email from my friend in America, her dad died yesterday afternoon, California time (whatever that is) but she is going to stay on the east coast as he would prefer she enjoys Christmas than go to a funeral. WTF Some folks are strange.

Re: One of them days
I think it is more sad when it happens close to Christmas time. Most people like to enjoy themselves and some feel guilty about doing this. My view is the person who has passed on would not like you to be sad but just to remember them and maybe raise a toast to absent friends

It was Thomas Cook and some excuse about a problem on the way out so no happy bunnies there either as they had the same delay. You know how it is told to go with them because the times fitted in well still not sure what you are suppose to buy with the €8 your given for a meal a bottle of water cost me €3.
They know about the delay just after we checked in at 12 as those checking in quarter of hour later were all give letters if we had know I would have used the Bono and gone back to LC.
New freezer bought and fitted and things are looking up. Just have to select the updated rad and fit that now.
Still seams small problems compared with some others postings.

Re: One of them days
So you gonna claim compensation Innit, at least it should pay for the new freezer.
See here you said 7 hours, so you should get €400 each. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Re: One of them days
Still waiting for my 400€ compo from about 3 years ago (Thomson), decided in my wisdom to let a dutch firm claim it for me, still waiting then, not holding out much.........
