On your boarding card you had a letter, ABCDEFGHIJ etc. At the gate they have a pole marked AF, another 5 yards further back marked BG etc.
At first call they ask the ABCDE people to line behind their pole, there are roughly 15 people with each letter. They put the As on the plane, 60 seconds later the Bs etc. When the Es are on the FGHIJ people are called.
Was kind of strange, but I think it was more efficient then the way other airlines do it.

Posted this up before but I think its worth another postage.
------
Dear Audrey,
I know the counselor said we shouldn't contact each other during our "cooling off" period, but I couldn't wait anymore. The day you left, I swore I'd never talk to you again. But that was just the wounded
little boy in me talking. Still, I never wanted to be the first one to make contact. In my fantasies, it was always you who would come crawling back to me. I guess my pride needed that. But now I see that my pride's cost me a lot of things. I'm tired of pretending I don't miss you. I don't care about looking bad anymore. I don't care who makes the first move as long as one of us does. Maybe it's time we let our hearts speak as loudly as our hurt. And this is what my heart says ... "There's no one like you, Audrey." I look for you in the eyes and breasts of every woman I see, but they're not you. They're not even close.
Two weeks ago, I met this girl at Flamingoes and brought her home with me. I don't say this to hurt you, but just to illustrate the depth of my desperation. She was young, maybe 19, with one of those perfect bodies that only youth and maybe a childhood spent ice skating can give you. I mean, just a perfect body. Jugs you wouldn't believe and an ass like a tortoise shell. Every man's dream, right? But as I sat on the couch being blown by this stunner, I thought, look at the stuff we've made important in our lives. It's all so superficial. What does a perfect body mean? Does it make her better in bed? Well, in this case, yes. But you see what I'm getting at. Does it make her a better person? Does she have a better heart than my moderately attractive Audrey? I doubt it. And I'd never really thought of that before. I don't know, maybe I'm just growing up a little.Later, after I'd tossed her about a half a pint of throat yogurt, I found myself thinking, "why do I feel so drained and empty?" It wasn't just her flawless technique or her slutty, shameless hunger, but something else. Some niggling feeling of loss.
Why did it feel so incomplete? And then it hit me. It didn't feel the same because you weren't there, Audrey, to watch. Do you know what I mean? Nothing feels the same without you. Jesus, Audrey, I'm just going crazy without you. And everything I do just reminds me of you.
Do you remember Carol, that single mom we met at Pontins last year? Well, she dropped by last week with a pan of lasagne. She said she figured I wasn't eating right without a woman around. I didn't know what she meant till later, but that's not the real story. Anyway, we had a few glasses of wine and the next thing you know we're banging away in our old bedroom. And this tart's a total monster in the sack. She's giving me everything, you know like a real woman does when she's not hung up about her weight or her career and whether the kids can hear us. And all of a sudden she spots that tilting mirror on your grandmother's old vanity. So she puts it on the floor and we straddle it, right, so we can watch ourselves. And it's totally hot, but it makes me sad
too cause I can't help thinking, "why didn't Audrey ever put the mirror on the floor"? We've had this old vanity for what, 14 years, and we never used it as a sex aid."
Saturday, your sister drops by with my copy of the restraining order.
I mean,Vicky's just a kid and all, but she's got a pretty good head on her shoulders and she's been a real friend to me during this painful time. She's given me lots of good counsel about you and about women in general. She's pulling for us to get back together, Audrey, she really is. So we're drinking in a hot bath and talking about happier times. Here's this teenage girl with the same DNA as you and all I can do is think of how much she looked like you when you were 18. And that just about makes me cry. And then it turns out Vicky's really into the whole anal thing and that gets me to thinking about how many times I pressured you about trying it and how that probably fuelled some of the bitterness between us. But do you see how even then, when I'm thrusting inside your baby sister's cinnamon ring, all I can do is think of you? It's true, Audrey. In your
heart you know it. Don't you think we could start over? Just wipe out all the grievances and start fresh? I think we can. If you feel the same please, please, please let me know.
Otherwise, can you let me know where the Sky remote control is?
John

Ryanair have gate closes 1/2hr before your flight on their boarding passes but every time I've flown with them it's exactly the opposite, the gate only opens then. Pretty annoying but I suppose it's to ensure that you are at the gate so there are no delays.

FML. Replaced screen perfectly on phone when I got back to Scotland.
What does a broken LCD look like? I've a nice gray patch in the middle of my screen...............
Ugh, nice thumbprint sized grey "LCD bleed" in the middle of the screen.
PUKE
Another £15 for an LCD on top of the £22 for a screen. Think I would've paid about £40 to have the screen replaced in a shop. £3 saving probably not worth it imoLast edited by Emmet; 03-04-11, 23:07.

As the man himself said, choooo choooo
Still a few dollars left in the ppp a/c so will have to use them for another sat and run better ofc!

Just watched Keith Barry on the Late Late after reading about it here.. Pretty cringeworthy alright! The worst thing about it was that stupid cheesey showbiz American accent he seems to have picked up after spending 4 and a half months over there! As if he wasn't annoying enough already!
My friend is told me his sister was picked out of the audience at some show he was doing in a pub before and had to think of something for him to guess.. Apparently one of his helpers asked her what she was thinking of so they could tell him. Have to say, the thing on the Late Late looked pretty staged too.

On the Late Late show, I just thought it looked really fake with the two nurses. Their reactions to him guessing the people they were thinking of and the guy slapping him in the face just seemed really OTT. Did you see it yourself? What did you think of it? I know you're in the business yourself, so maybe you have a different perspective on it.

I worked in Velvet once, back in the day of it being very exclusive and over 23s. Mainly because I worked in Envy and after a lot of persuasion I got stung to work! It sucked!Pining for Wa'erford

Originally posted by KK82 View PostWell, firstly, what my friend told me about his sister being asked by one of his crew what she was thinking of seems kinda strange. I usually wouldn't believe those type of stories, but I don't think she'd lie about something stupid like that. I do realise he obviously has the ability do do these tricks, but maybe he sometimes plays it safe and cheats a little to avoid getting it wrong.

I know what you mean when your friend says they were asked.. there is different levels of this in Every magicians shows though, some people wont even know they've been asked. theres a thing we call dual reality, where the person involved sees one trick, the people watching see a different trick. since they dont usually discuss it, they both think the other is reacting to their perception of whats going on.
the reason i like hypnosis so much, is it reduces my need to use more blatant methods of getting info, like what your friend says she experienced. with a little pre show work, you can effectively have a stooge that doesnt know they're a stooge. Keith is quite accomplished at hypno too, and I'd guess he uses it quite a bit when possible, but obv with a live touring show, not as much of a chance to get access to audience pre show.http://mobro.co/zuroph
