Why do it if it's not fun?

And at Cardiff the other week I was charged £1.18 PLUS VAT. That is, unless my memory is playing up.

To tell the truth, I was so shocked at the extortionate total charge that my memory may be playing up.... because as well as a rather high fuel charge, they had also quoted me landing and handling fees excluding VAT, and neglected to tell me about the passenger surcharge fee and the insurance fee. I'm sure when I phoned up and asked them how much it would cost me, I don't remember telling them that I was only interested in half of the fees that they were going to charge me, nor that I wanted the price excluding VAT.......

White Waltham has never been the cheapest place around, but it's always had an atmosphere which makes up for it. It seems to me that the price increases around the country are higher than WW's, bringing WW's prices slightly more in line with the average than they were before?
