Flying from Bristol with my other half who does not speak English and had passed through security with two 10 kg cases, when I remembered that I had left my sweater in the hire car. Returned to the hire car and collected my sweater, but when I returned to security they would not let me through because the flight had been cancelled (??).
At the same time there was some kerfuffle with an ambulance so that when I eventually found someone who was authorised to go through security and carry messages, said person was attending to the kerfuffle.
In the end my unfortunate OH was left standing in the airport with 2 cases for about 3 hours wondering whether the ambulance had anything to do with my absence.
