I was on the tube today, a lady got on at Canary Wharf, clearly pregnant and sporting a metal pin badge with the LU symbol and the words ” Baby on board” . Looked like an official LU type badge.
I remember sitting behind Pierce Brosnan (Concord to drop a name) and he and the excited BA staff thought he was too celeb to be required to put his seat back up for landing. i was cross and pushed him up from behind, I well remember the celeb stare as he left the plane. I lectured the staff about needing to do the right thing regardless of the stars in their eyes!!
Oh you guys are funny … I boarded a city bus to Venice last fall using my cane for my new knee. The bus was mobbed, it was hot and I had been walking too long. Two charming children full of tatoos with green hair and various piercings were sitting fairly close to the front … I’m not sure the girl could actually see me through all the makeup but I paused for a long moment as the bus began to move, then said “Get up”. She looked shocked but leaped up … and stood making faces at her companion while I just stared through her on the way into Venice. I believe that is the most rude thing I’ve ever done while travelling but it sure beat passing out in the aisle.
