  1. I actually found that video quite amusing at the end..... I'm a smoker and I also work in a certain industry which requires me to wear a dosimeter, undertake routine biological sampling and every so often I am given a whole body monitor. Surely they would be able to measure the dosage I receive by being a smoker, but my dosage measurements are no different to non-smokers that I work with. A whole body monitor is performed in a room shielded by steel from a warship built prior to WW2 and the advent of nuclear weapons for the purpose of reducing background radiation. It is used to detect
  2. Most of the time I book through the airlines websites, but my next trip was done via an on-line agent. Buying 2 one way tickets could be a lot more expensive, but there's no harm in checking... try https://www.skyscanner.net/
  3. Apparently ther's been another case this week with United where a First Class passenger was getting bumped off a flight after boarding..... the man was threatened with being hand-cuffed.. http://www.latimes.com/business/lazarus/la-fi-lazarus-united-low-priority-passenger-20170412-story.html
  4. Excellent photo report again.... cheers for posting!!!
  5. A classic case of look, but don't touch.... Did you get checked to see if you picked up any contam during the tour. Nice to see statues commemorating the fire and rescue workers that lost their lives.
  6. What were your feelings as you were venturing into the exclusion zone, knowing that you were going to be exposed to high levels of radiation? Did it scare you?
  7. Northern England is fine and dandy too.... Mrs Fiend managed to find a water pistol but luckily she didn't use it on me!!!
  8. Seems as though they caught some of the culprits who've been soaking people with piss and shit!!!
  9. Another interesting video..... this one done by a lawyer who has gone through Uniteds T & C's
  10. Republic could have been told by United not to offer more than $800.... Hence they resorted to involving the police to forcibly remove a "passenger/customer" who refused to get off the plane.
  11. Yes the flight is operated by Republic, but they are operating it for United, so are representing United..... if anything both United and Republic are at fault for this PR disaster.
  12. Read this http://www.airliners.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1360189 I can't believe some people are actually defending the airline.
  13. After I book I always keep an eye on the prices of the flights that I have booked..... I always seem to book at just the right time when there are bargains to be had.
  14. Did a search recently for the exact dates and flights of my May trip with Qatar...... And the flights came back as double what I paid...
  15. Are you having problems connecting to other websites or is it just here?
  16. I've had no problems with Firefox 52.0.1 connecting to here...
  17. Status for the living relatives, but worthless for the dead....
  18. There's no point in being the richest man in the graveyard....
  19. Whose name is it booked under? According to the reservation you posted, it is non-cancellable and non- modifiable.... If it's booked it your name the booking could be forfeited, if it's booked in your mates name you might get away with it..... but I doubt you'll get any takers.....
  20. You never know when you will die..... so I just enjoy each passing day Someone I worked with retired 2 years ago with a very decent pension..... he only got to enjoy his retirement for 2 years as his funeral was 3 weeks ago....
  21. I've got 5 years to go before hitting my retirement age (60), but thanks UK government interference I can't plan or budget anything to do with with my pensions for the next 12 months or so!!!! :banghead One thing I do know is that my existing pension(s), up until now, are protected.... That can't be taken away from me.... That is going to be the worse case scenario I will have to work with.as a base line for my retirement in Thailand And as it stands I would be able live quite comfortably in Thailand on that base line figure. My State pension and any inheritance or proceeds from
  22. Conspiracy theory time..... Have the US3 ( Delta, American and United) been lobbying Trump to make things difficult for the ME3 (Emirates, Etihad and Qatar)???
  23. Interesting that the UK isn't implementing the ban as widely as the US. Qatar, Emirates and Etihad are missing off the UK list..... If a terrorist was seriously planning an attack on an aircraft, all it will do is shift the target to another airline, unless they force all airlines to bring in a blanket ban...
