Talking

This was one my mate got on . FLIGHT glasgow to somewhere south of the border , ANYWAY aircraft was a very old 737 ( wire from nose to tail job ) . So the flight got underway and his description is as follows . Mega roaring from engines on takeoff , initial climb , followed by dipping / diving movement . roar up engines even more , futhr climb followed again by diving manoever . climb again , aircraft shaking like hell , followed by what was described as like getting " hit by a bus from the side " . then further dive . " everyone screaming " then steward comes on over the tannoy , "i am very sorry to announce " !!!!.... at this point my mate is convinced they are about to be told to adopt the brace position.... to which the steward continues ... but there will be no peanuts available on the buffet service today ....Aaaaaaaaahhhhh .
