Flew with BA recently and the cabin crew Mgr was begging people to complain to head office when all the passengers realised they weren’t getting a free shit sandwich and started moaning.

I’ll say it now, one of the best posts on here ever. Just imagining nikkers and her so silently trudging up the stairs to the aircraft in holiday wear, but with cycle helmets strapped on.

Faces like a pair of smacked bums. But in bike helmets.

i honestly can’t believe it either. I’m still smiling.

the idea that they both adjusted the fit of their helmets in the departures area before boarding adds a new level of hilarity to it. the shit faced smile of the flight attendant welcoming passengers onboard. the awkward fumbling to get the helmets off onboard the aircraft and then safely stow them in the overheard compartment, while some awful family tries to shove their souvenir bags into the same space.

Yeah the one time I ended up at Southend from Amsterdam as a result of a missed flight I was pretty impressed by how quick it was into town

#102

Ah really? Connections are much better than I thought then. Fair play

#103

Just completely lost it at my desk picturing @plasticniki and @plasticmike boarding with their helmets on.

oh god.

Second funniest thing I’ve read on DiS after LLBs deaf colleague story. Amazing.

Never had any issues with them.

I bought half an ounce of weed home from Amsterdam on an Easyjet flight once.

it actually takes 55 mins apparently. been a while since I’ve got that line. But yes it’s still quick and likely to be quicker than gatwick/heathrow, especially for the city/stratford/east london.

Southend airport will have routes with Flybe to Glasgow, Manchester and Dublin in the autumn which is a real bonus.

Read that story again yesterday. Absolute classic.

Proper LOLing away here at PNiks and the bike helmets. Fucking Hell.
