  1. Another Surrey Shrimper

    Heathrow

    Heathrow - yet another delay on a decision - the government is still running scared of this and the latest delay means they can brush it under the carpet until after the Mayoral elections. With so many business leaders crying out for increased air capacity are they putting party before country?

    Heathrow to Windsor Travelodge

    Can anyone recommend a company to take me and my family this relatively short distance? I would like to pre-book one of those companies where they wait for you at the arrivals and it doesn't matter if the plane is delayed. Me, my wife, a three year old and a baby so I would like baby/child...

    Simon Francis from the horses mouth

    I have just come back from Berlin on a stag weekend. On the way out we flew from STN and who should I see in the bar before the flight but Simon himself. Being the gobby ******* I am I spoke to him of course. I was a but ****ed so I didn't really ask as much as I should but long and short of it...

    Your 23 on the plane to S.A?

    So, that's it then. A few pretty dull and very nervy friendlies are over. Some have cemented their place on the flight. Others have earned themselves a month infront of the T.V. with the rest of us. Fabio names his final 23 on Tuesday. But who would be your squad of 23 lions to go for world...

    Wembley's Awful Pitch

    90,000 seats, 2618 toilets, 26 lifts, 98 kitchens and 34 bars. Was it too much to ask for Wembley to provide just one decent playing surface? Saturday’s FA Cup semi-final was like watching naughty ten year olds playing football indoors on an untacked carpet. Every change of direction brought a...

    The Driverless Taxi

    See the bbc website for video footage and commentary. There is no direct link that I can find on BBC. This is weird! A taxi that reaches up to 25mph which reaches its destination by computer control and laser sensors. This was only a matter of time. This is being tested at Heathrow Airport and...

    Slipper of the Yard

    Wonderful article here by one of my favourite journalists/commentators, Mark Steyn: “He was always affable and very much a gentle giant,” said Bruce Reynolds. “He was one of the old school,” agreed one of Mr Reynolds’ colleagues. Gentlemen publishers? Art dealers? Yes, Mr Reynolds has a...

    Heathrow third runway gets go-ahead

    The third runway will operate at half its capacity when it opens in 2020, raising the total number of flights from 480,000 to 600,000, rather than the 702,000 intended. It will add an estimated 400 flights a day at the west London site and increasing annual passenger numbers through the airport...

    Why are we so bad?

    Why is this Country so bad and how can we fix it? Having just returned from holiday, once again, I find it exasperating that we are rubbish at so much stuff. We used 5 airports, Heathrow terminal 5 was ok, JFK, La Guardia and Tampa were all excellent. Arrived back at Gatwick. Plane stops, sit...

    Brand disloyalty

    Passing through Heathrow the other day, I saw a lot of adverts for that airline XL. First thought was - "That's the mob who sponsor those tossers West Ham" That then got me thinking - would I avoid putting business their way because of that? I'd certainly not be inclined to go to their website...
