Well, based on Touchdown's previous performance in Customer Care (or the complete lack of), that is going to be a nightmare!!

No... I didn't have a booking with them.

Just got a text from a mate of mine who's arrived in Mauritius on a BA ID90 to find that his Lawsons' reservation isn't worth the paper it's written on.

I've told him he can kip on the beach but I don't think his wife's too impressed.

He's been told there's room at Le Saint Geran. It's a real bargain @ £550 per night.

Poor ****** lost 2 days of his honeymoon due to the big ATC computer crash last year.

Remind me never to go on holiday with him....
