  2. Might have to find another one before he fly’s.

  3. Or the alternative is for everybody to protest on the runway, get the message across to these idiots & make the 6 o'clock news.
     
  4. TUI seem to be the worst. Woman had her holiday cancelled and subsequently found the exact same holiday was being advertised by TUI for £400/person more. At least EasyJet have given me nearly 3 weeks notice that our flight to Barcelona has been cancelled and fortunately, I guess because I acted immediately, we’ve got seats on the plane that leaves 2 hours later. I know the later start will please one of our party and to be fair to her, it’ll probably suit her mum and me if we’ve stayed in the bar in the hotel the night before :joy: Andy

  5. The saga continues………….we’ve now had to collect our hold luggage and have been taken by coach to a hotel 10 miles away to have something to eat and to rest. Then at 3.15pm we will be taken back to the airport and will have to check in again, go through security again to hopefully get a flight at 7pm.

    SWMBO has also been on to TUI’s head office to check that they would abide by the CAA’s ruling on their website saying that if a flight is delayed by more than 5 hours then we have the right to cancel and get our money for the holiday back. The person she spoke to didn’t know about that clause, checked the CAA website herself, and said she’d speak to “management” and get back to us.

    TBH, the way I feel right now (and I might be cutting off my nose to spite my face) I’d rather it was cancelled and we got our money back and we’re compensated by TUI.

    This was supposed to be a luxury week away after 2 years of being stuck at home in a luxurious 5 star hotel (and it wasn’t cheap at £4k for the 2 of us!). This episode has tarnished the holiday for me now :mad:

    TUI’s communication throughout has been abysmal with stories changing every 2 minutes!

  6. And it’s now been put back a further hour :mad:
     
  7. Took the 996 out for a bit and popped into Donington trackday. Doesn't look that busy to be honest. Some garages only have 5 or 6 bikes in. Hooe it's the same Friday and Saturday

  8. I can see a compensation claim form being filled out......bastards.
     
  9. Second ride on the 996r today for this year and boy do i fill better already apart from burning fuel like it's going out of fashion.
     
  10. Probably should have been doing stuff around the house today but sod it, put another 110 miles on the Monster. Over half way to the first service mileage :D Andy

  11. What a total shower of shite. I’d turn around, go home and book a week in a 5 star spa hotel in this country.
     
  12. Well we're back at the airport. All checked in again and just had some food (£20 food and drink vouchers). Now just waiting on if the plane turns up and takes off :rolleyes:

  16. Not a bad day at the alfresco paint shop. Hammerite black, silver and gold! I don't know where all of these parts actually fit, but hopefully (with some help from t' interweb (and Haynes) that problem will eventually be resolved... I figured they couldn't go back on the bike rusty...

    BTW. I haven't used Hammerite a great deal since I finished my Suzuki refurb. I used rattle cans today & the paint seems to "float out" much better than previously. Perhaps they've changed their recipe!

  18. After 2 years of their business being destroyed, they can’t do fuck all right and planning seems to have alluded any of them!! Utter nonsense.
