@British_Airways Thanks for all the replies and comments. I had a couple of calls with @British_Airways & 5 mins ago received a call as boarding the flight inbound to LHR to say we're back on BA1372. Not sure what occurred with the "cancellation" but all's well that ends well. Thanks all
@British_Airways Thank you, but I was booked on BA1372 and was told overnight that it's cancelled but it's still showing as on time on the BA flight status page (and elsewhere), hence why is a gold (or any) booked pax bumped?
Well @British_Airways as longtime loyal customers it's galling to lose gold status on 31 March. I've 17200 tier pts this yr, over 2x needed for silver, a big outlay of loyalty for a retail flyer, but just fall short of gold. 10000 wasted tier pts which cld be earned elsewhere?
Our New Years' Eve dinner trio - Ch Lynch Bages 1983 (been waiting a long time to open that), Ch Leoville Barton 2002 and Ch Beychevelle 2005 (after being so impressed with it on Christmas day). First, a trip to the pub for a pre-dinner beer. Happy New Year to you all
Happy Christmas everyone. Our Christmas meal wine this year this Ch Beychevelle '05 bought en primeur 20 years ago. Had the '99 a few years back which was also lovely. This case came out of storage a month ago and first taste it's just right. Cheers
At last achieved gold in the BA Club (formerly BA Executive Club). However, with the changes recently announced probably have to settle for silver after April 2026, but silver has always worked well for me. In the meantime I'm going to bask in the glow of gold ๐
The moment of truth for our Christmas Day wine and this Ch Rauzan-Segla '95 that we bought en p 28 years ago and saw for the first time 6 weeks ago is marvellous. Hoped it would be as we've been enjoying the '07 recently but this is much better. Patience rewarded. Happy Holidays
Happy holidays. Christmas morning, on home "cheffing" duties today. First one up, feeding the cat and having a quiet cup of tea before the mayhem starts. Calculating the turkey cooking time
@BrianHayes757 I've moved to Bluesky & going to try that for a while. Unlike others it's not a political decision but due to the clogging of my timeline with intolerant or abusive posts on unwanted topics which crowds out the people like you I want to follow. I hope to see you again
@aaandrewloves@KirstieMAllsopp For debating politics and getting back vitriol, abuse & general disrespect this is the place. For those who for yrs enjoyed hearing about other interests with like-minded folk, it's no longer the place. My timeline is crowded with stuff I don't want which drowns out the rest
@scottiebateman I've moved over. I can't run two accounts so I'm trying the other place for a while. So far so good but I'll miss folk. For me it's not political, it's the unwanted vitriol on my timeline here that crowds out the people I follow
Hi! I'm migrating to #bluesky. My bluesky address is a pinned tweet. If I follow you here & you're on bluesky please reach out so I can re-follow. This isn't political it's bc I can no longer see the people I follow or topics I like amongst the 100s of angry tweets I don't want
