No, they were already a father, they didn't stop being a father. They haven't become a father again they've just had another child. Did you check they haven't killed their first one? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Probably me being a miserable old word removed but people turning up at the airport the day after Flybe went bust the night before. Don't people check the news on their phones/radio/TV or check their flight status before setting out to the airport? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Yep, look Jeff it really is cancelled. Tut." Like a small heath going for a job interview dressed as a Peaky Bender knowing deep down it will end up as always with disappointment and humiliation in equally high levels. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Once it's announced, I imagine the people who could send such notifications no longer have a job and aren't permitted to login and send out notifications to customers, even if they wanted to do it when they know they're not being paid. It was on the front page of pretty much every paper and the top headline on tv/radio though. There's no helping some people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Obviously no one is there to administer it all But if you were a cautious worrier by nature I can see you wanting to go to the airport to be told officially that its not happening Or you can go down and have a moan at the brum airport staff about it, those are the people that would piss me off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
