Ah fuck, it is with Ryanair so hopefully this won’t happen. Can you PM me any deets on what you had to do just in case, if that’s cool? Just don’t want another stressful sit haha.
it was pretty straightforward just annoying to have another thing to do. I think send a scan of my passport if I remember correctly but it was all linked to a webpage that walked through it. Took a couple of hours for it to get approved but I think you can pay more to get it done quicker, I’m just going straight with the airlines from now on and also fuck ryanair.

Poor show with the lower-case from Pitchfork. Not that you’d expect anything better from Pitchfork, I guess.

Any of you every been refused water on a plane before? Trying to figure out if I’m being a Karen or not.
Flight home yesterday, on some shitty Asian airline I’d never heard of. Had some leftover cash before boarding so I went to the shop and spent the last of it on a few snacks and a couple of big bottles of water for the flight.
When we go to the gate, before boarding they tell everyone to take all the water bottles out of their bag and bin them. Weird, but ok whatever. Surely they’ll have water on the plane. Then about an hour in:
Me: please can we have a glass of water
Attendant: yes you need to buy it.
Me: errr, ok I’ll pay by card.
Attendant: We don’t take card.
Me: I have no cash, I spent the last of it on water that I had to leave
Attendant: Oh, sorry sir. Bye!
I literally had to go to the back of the plane and refuse to go back to my seat unil they gave me one tiny paper cup of hot water for me to share with my girlfriend. To last an entire long haul flight.
This is fucked up, right?
I never do shit like that, at a restaurant I’ll lie through my teeth about how nice my meal was even if I hated it.
I must have spent many hundreds of hours on planes in my life and I’ve never had an experience like this. Fuck these guys.

Sounds borderline illegal to not have water available. That would be like charging for the toilets and only taking cash, surely?

Yeah I actually said somethung similar when I was arguing ha.
It was Batik air, Indonesian airline. The outward flight was fine. Think it was just the crew from the Bali leg running a racket.

Sounds fucked. Surely it’s a basic human right. Especially when you have no other option.

Yeah I’m still burning with a white hot fire of righteous indignation 2 days later haha. Plus I just curbed an alloy parking this morning. Gonna be expensive. Nicotine withdrawal is a bitch. I’m cranky.

Hired a car the other day and was just parking up, hit the curb so hard I got a puncture I could hear from inside
Nonetheless I remember curving alloys myself and the self hate is so real
Airport chronicles. Flight Im meant to catch in 40 mins is 3 hours late already man.
Can’t catch a break with this shit haha.

Fuck knows. My flight back is like 9pm next week. Not looking forward to this.
Stanstead airport got a lot better than the last time I was here. Slight plus point.

Went out for the carve wicked premiere last night and lent someone cash to get a bag in and said get me one too! I don’t do drugs much any more but fuck it when in rome.
Anyway, I was too smashed to open the bag so it was still full when I woke up and I thought ‘I wonder if it’s even real?’ So I did a little dab this morning and went out to walk the dog. Couldn’t feel my face, my heart was pumping and my teeth went numb.
Walked about five minutes from my house and my fucking dog ran off an barked at another dog who bit her on the neck and head leaving her pumping blood all over the place and with a big flap of skin down to the bone in her scalp.
I checked with the other dogs owner that is was ok and then ran to get my dog who bolted for home. I had to run through the streets with blood all over my shirt, bloody hands, hungover as hell, sweating like mad.
Got home and my eldest kid had brought two mates back from a sleepover and I ran into the house with a bleeding dog, talking absolute bollocks and stressing like mad. They were freaked out. I was freaked out. Dog ran round the house dripping blood everywhere. I got on the phone to my missus who was collecting our other kid and bundled the dog into the van and just started driving to the 24 hour vets.
My missus says the vets is closed so I circle back, pick her up and we go to the other vets.
When we got there we checked the dog right in and they are gonna stitch her up and sort her out. It’s all gonna be fine. I’m £1500 poorer for the experience.
Don’t do drugs.

I get anxious even thinking about gear. Going to bed at 8am the next day, drenched in sweat, paranoid about what I might have just said, willing my heart to stop beating out of my chest… No thanks.
The moment I look out the window and realise the sun is rising sends me spiralling.
There are certain songs that I’ve ruined for myself because of the associated memories.

Yeah it’s heart attack fuel too so definitely a bad look for someone nearing 50. Anyway, one tiny bump and my world turned to shit so there’s a moral lesson here for sure.

Do you have pet insurance. My dog got attacked 18 months ago and was a pricey op but got most back from the insurance
