Red face Delay Stories

Whilst enjoying a delay at Luton, I am wondering about your best delay story?

This one is simple: LTN ~IOM to see mother, a route that I do three times a year. The island is fogged and so a 3.75 hour delay - currently. Polite staff and voucher but it is one of those days when Priority Pass really pays for itself in one!

Whilst I can sit here and PPRuNe, the only drawback is that the TV has football on it.

BUT the real kicker is this: This morning I thought, should I take the Walkman? Nah, short trip, I've got enough stuff to take, so I'll leave it out. Hah!!! Boy do I want my CDs now to mask the footie. Not to mention the bloke chomping Twiglets with a sound like a concrete mixer. Since he has now sat down at the neighboring PC, I'm off to read the paper!


So, what are your best/worst delay stories?
