London is my home and I love visiting the USA. I'm slightly fixated with Las Vegas (just a little bit), which is odd as I'm entirely made of snow.

Sorry Germany, but you're just weird!

@dbrownhess @360vegasKeren @British_Airways You could see people getting frustrated with the ground staff, but they should have gone home hours ago and they couldn’t do anything to help. So I clarified the situation thanked them for their information, said this isn’t your fault and thank you for staying as long as you have

I’ve been avoiding this space for a while, but I have a story that may help others in future. I was minding my business, hanging with friends in Texas and boarded my flight home from Austin on Thursday night and people started getting messages about a fire near Heathrow… 1/

@dbrownhess @360vegasKeren @British_Airways It’s not quite over yet, but option a) was panic and stress option b) was just let whatever happens happen!

@360vegasKeren @British_Airways All I have to do now is fill in the forms to get the hotel and food money back from BA and hope the ‘catastrophe’ cover on my travel insurance covers the return leg of the trip and not just the outbound. The End (I hope, I’m still not on a plane) Thanks for listening 😜 14/14

@360vegasKeren The moral of the story is @British_Airways holidays did a great job of calling me back after a few hours and arranged a new flight. Trust the process, don’t hang out in the airport and moan to people who don’t have the power to help. Stuff will sort itself out 13/

Oh great! Looks like some massive a*holes have decided to try and go on a massive multi thousand pound spending spree using my credit card details over the phone. Fortunately @mbna called me and blocked the transactions, so phew! Good job MBNA fraud team 😀 Christmas is saved 🎄
