Christmas day in the workhouse (LATCC), the traffic was always light and to pass the time the daily raffle was initiated.
This raffle consisted of trying to guess the load factor on any given flight. Once all the subs were in, the pilot of said flight was asked "How many Pax on board?" and the subscriber with the nearest number to the correct one was the winner.

Oh what fun.

PLAZBOT.

Bollocks me old China.
