Saw this on the BBC (yes there are other stories other than pandemic stupidity er I mean swine flu)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/sussex/8027930.stm

How long before there is a fight on a plane because someone coughed and sneezed in a 'funny' way?

Read this on the way onto my office this morning - no real suprises really.

No mention of the correlation between drunken air rage and tracksuits?

It is a natural result of cramming strangers into a small space for a long period of time.

I almost bitch slapped a woman on the tube yesterday for physically pushing me onto a train. The train that had arrived was jam packed, I went to get on but it was so full that I thought I'd wait for the next one (it was the Circle line, another train would be there in literlly 2 minutes) and as i hesitated a woman behind me physically pushed me onto the train so that she could get on. People act in the most ridiculous manner sometimes. Add to that a screaming child or a person who needs to share their mobile conversation with everybody and I am not surprised that people just snap sometimes. More holidays for all is the answer I think. [:D]

Thanks,
Sarah

A lot of the problems do have alcohol involved somewhere and both the airlines and the bars at airports have to share the blame. Just watch an episode of Airport or Airline and if a flight is delay, you'll find them in the bar getting plastered. Licensed premises seem to forget that it is an offence to sell alcohol to someone who is or appears to be drunk.

The other problem is a general lack of respect, consideration and manners.

Along with the mentality of 'I'm on holiday, I can do whatever I want'.

Try coming back to the UK after living in Japan for years! I felt shocked and ashamed and what Britain has become.

Decker, we have to give him some slack. After all, his host nation had its past leader declare 'is our children learning?'

After looking at the last budget, do you really want to start comparing politicians Richard ?

Touche!

Though I should give you some credit as you are one of the minority that travel; but then this peach explains why:

ROTFLMAO [:o)] [:p] [:o)]

Welcome Presidential nominee Miss South Carolina!!!

I hate to say it but Sarah Palin was a beauty queen in her 'youth' and came 3rd in the Miss Alaska in 1984 !

Sarah would not have needed a map because she could see every country in the world from her house.

Of course, she did tell us she would be great at foreign policy due to the proximity of Russia to Alaska....

All I can say is, good job Alaska has long winters. Less chance for her to be out alone in daylight.

Oh Richard don't forget Canada ! She knows they share a land border !

Back to the original topic.

If you saw Sarah Palin on a plane and slapped her would it be air rage?

No, justified I think. Let's see if she can see that coming from her house!!
