(not so) quiet airport lounges

[rickg]

sat in the No 1 Lounge at Gatwick to catch up on some work and grab a bite before my flight out to Prague. There's a woman sat opposite me whose phone hasn't stopped ringing, the entire lounge can hear her phone conversation.

Waiter comes up to her to see if she wants another drink and to see if everything is OK and she has the nerve to say;

"I just love the peace and quiet you get in here"!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely priceless!!

I now know all about her mothers hip replacement and dodgy toilet movements.......it put me right off my skinny latte!!

How very British of you! Gently seething to yourself but not saying anything to the woman. Get's you nowhere except to the quack with high blood pressure, let them know next time!

I did let out a few disapproving tuts under my breath which I thought might have done the trick

She probably ignored you on the basis of 'I'm not being tutted by someone dressed as a gay clown'.

I boarded a plane a couple of years ago, had an aisle seat with the toilet just behind me on the other side of the aisle . A couple came along probably early sixties, the woman said "excuse me , i will have to sit there". and flashed a card in my face that i was not inclined to read ."I have to be near the toilet , i've already had an accident in the airport and i've got no underwear on". She said...
Like i really want to know that!
Turns out the card she produced was IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)
I moved to the window seat and just wanted to be elsewhere , the husband sat next to me so his wife could have the aisle seat and he spent about an hour telling me all about IBS and their experiences etc etc . she dashed off to the loo about 3 times in an hour , i know she has no underwear on and every time she goes off he's telling me of instances that she would be embarrassed about if he told me . I wanted a bloody parachute.............
When we got off the plane my wife, who was across the aisle said "you was really chatty with that couple " which is unlike me , i tend to keep myself to myself , I didnt know where to start explaining!!!!!!!!!
