@bencoates1 Well, my 1h flight to London took 8.5h last week... Suddenly the 12h bus journey seems not that bad. Cancellation - rebooked with a connecting flight via FRA - Schiphol queue - layover etc.
The BBC should now do 11-days of nonstop documentaries and features on republicanism, the crimes of the British empire,the dangers of unaccountable elites, and working-class history. For balance.
@IsmamTalha @BBCLauraKT Dunno, I had to organise my mother's funeral aged 21 after my father had died 2yrs earlier & then run a house AND their business. Unfortunately I didn't have any servants.🤷♀️
