"I used my pension money to pay for the £1,133 "dream holiday"" - Well none of that matters. If you're 81, then whatever money you use will be your pension money. If you have a problem with the cost, then you should have done more research into where you were going and you could have found a very similar trip for probably 250 quid each. Moaning about a 14th floor room (which of course would have had lifts) and then to moan about 42 steps down to the pool area.. well if your mobility is so poor, you shouldn't have gone to that hotel or the pool - that was your choice, you fat, old dumbass. How the **** did that story get into the Mirror? WOW. Then the biggest problem is that she had a problem with Spaniards in Spain - just have a heart attack and **** off. And the irony of having her picture taken with a heart saying "love" on it isn't lost on me either. Edited August 13, 2018 by lapal_fan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted August 13, 2018 Moderator Share Posted August 13, 2018 Wonder how much the Mirror paid her for the story? The Mirror is just another shitrag, it's no better than any other tabloid, it just happens to support the red team in parliament as it gives them access to a different reader base (sorry set of Advert Targets) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 The number of movies and TV shows that starts like this is endless... Quote About 10 sick passengers treated after Emirates flight lands in NYC About 10 sick passengers were treated after an Emirates flight from Dubai landed in New York City Wednesday morning, the airline said. The plane was kept away from the terminal at John F. Kennedy airport as authorities investigated reports of sick passengers. Emirates flight 203 had declared a medical emergency and landed in New York at 9:10 a.m., the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement. "Emirates can confirm that about 10 passengers on #EK203 from Dubai to New York were taken ill. On arrival, as a precaution, they were attended to by local health authorities. All others will disembark shortly. The safety & care of our customers is our first priority," the airline tweeted.

All others will disembark shortly. The safety & care of our customers is our first priority. The flu is being investigated as a possible culprit, two sources told ABC News. A United Emirates flight sits on the tarmac at JFK International Airport in New York with possible sick passengers on board, Sept. 5, 2018. The plane was quarantined after it landed and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was at the scene, said New York City Mayor Bill DeBlasio's press secretary, Eric Phillips.

Early indications point to that as a POSSIBILITY. More to come," Phillips tweeted, adding that ambulances were on hand to transport people. https://abcnews.go.com/US/authorities-investigating-reports-flight-100-ill-people-york/story?id=57617520 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter reckons she goes in hers maybe twice a year. the kids generally couldn't give a shit about the SU generally. In Liverpool at JMU, they don't even have a building any more, they have Sabbs, who hold "surgeries" in obscure cafeterias once or twice a week and announce other bland SU type welfare things via Twitter. Meanwhile the students don't have a clue who they are and really don't care. I'd say all the ones I've encountered in the last 20 or so years have been the dullest of dull people 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But them becoming peripheral to normal students' life doesn't necessarily mean they haven't continued to be spoons. Indeed, might it not suggest that this jazz hands story is likely to concern no more than a few dozen people anyway? WTF are Jazz hands anyway?

HanoiVillan Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Somehow this isn't a Newsthump article: Ban on putting Shetland in a box on maps comes into force 'New rules barring public bodies from putting Shetland in a box on official documents have come into force. Islands MSP Tavish Scott had sought to change the law to ban the "geographical mistake" which "irks" locals, by amending the Islands (Scotland) Bill. The bill's "mapping requirement" has now come into force, although it does give bodies a get-out clause if they provide reasons why a box must be used. Mapmakers argue that boxes help avoid "publishing maps which are mostly sea".' https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-45733111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
