It's best not to leave comments when you have had a few whiskies. As far as I recall I never helped to elect a "misogynistic autistic thug". The fellow I voted for in Sheffield Hallam has mild cerebral palsy. He is called Jared O'Mara and to the delight of all Labour supporters in our constituency he replaced Nick Clegg.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-61121667760147658802017-07-14T09:27:09.824+01:002017-07-14T09:27:09.824+01:00Yup!

(Which is why I let it go without argument.) The whole thing is so ridiculous. I never thought about the money-making opportunity it affords airport retailers and I'm sure, now that you bring it up, that that's a big part of the story.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-43594229399327634082017-07-13T20:00:28.255+01:002017-07-13T20:00:28.255+01:00I don't want to be a Troll but can't help ...I don't want to be a Troll but can't help it. You public servants expect us to embrace multiculturalism, multi-ability education. MGBGTXVZ folk. Then take responsibility for the society you created.

I usually travel with a foldable camp cup to get water from the hard to find fountains or from the sinks. Air travel is an endurance these days rather than a pleasure.

When I travelled to the Caribbean each year for holidays, I've had 13 hr flights with sometimes 4-5 hr delays in the airport, I never drank water, a glass of wine or two. This bottled water lark is a money spinner that's all and I agree with Crafty Cat and Frances. I'm 70 and have one cup of tea for breakfast and that's it other than a beer or glass of wine in the afternoon and I'm fit and healthy and haven't got insides like a dried up prune.Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-11998776171900390742017-07-13T09:52:37.776+01:002017-07-13T09:52:37.776+01:00gAnd what about piccalilli?
