[germdoc]

I had tears in my eyes after reading this:

Could it have been written by Ray??

No. Methinks Ray would have been, umm... earthier.

I've learned that a ticket entitles me to transportation and anything else is a bonus. When I fly, I bring work or reading to keep myself occupied. On domestic flights with no food, I bring my own. On flights with food, I very have modest expectations.

It's the "security" checks that get under my skin. Once I'm on an airplane, I'm in heaven. Especially if it's United and Channel 9 is tied to the cockpit. Just ask my wife.

hilarious.

how do you even get your own food on a plane now?
they've banned taking on nearly everything...

A good portion of the letter was read verbatim on the BBC America telecast.

Could it have been written by Ray??

It shows so many of the British (but particularly English) traits in high-class sarcasm and the ability to make a serious point with levity. It's an excellent example, which I would have been proud to have written.

No. Methinks Ray would have been, umm... earthier.

I don't know where the ***k you get that idea, David. That's a complete load of b*ll**ks!

Ray.

But But But our East Indian customers love that food.

Did you notice the story to the side where they are offering to let him decide on food for future flights? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/tr...od-tester.html
