"If only he returned the favour by having his wife breast-feed in privacy in the toilets."
Hmmm, don't see why the baby should be the only pax required to eat its meal in the loos....seems rather unfair when you look at it that way, doesn't it?
When will you chaps realise - it's not titillation (pardon the pun), it's not an opportunity for you to be offended, it's a meal, pure and simple. It's the best thing for the baby, and I've never seen anyone try and do it in any way other than as discreetly as possible.
Back on the main topic, - gosh, I don't know how I would have handled it - initially I'd have been so shocked I wouldn't have known what to say, but the thought of making it through the flight without several snifters (I'm not v keen on flying) doesn't bear thinking about... Can anyone think of a polite but assertive response?
