Well if they wipe out the cheap plonk, then it's fairly guaranteed they're diverting a chunk of tourists elsewhere.

You don't get out much then.

Have a related question that may help other users.

do you reccomend buying a second decent router and just using the first one as decortion?

Well not in those words.

But yes, I recommend buying a decent router for internal use and just using the ISP supplied one as a modem.

Or perhaps just bad management.

The advantage of business class is that you get off first [well after first class] and most of those in there tend to be slowish walkers.

 

I'm quite nippy and get to fast track way ahead of my fellow travellers.

 

Never had to wait behind more than 2 people and only that number once.

I do realise that, but there are other flights arriving as well.

My point is that they seem to have plenty of people processing arrivals.

It is departures that is the problem here.

Even FastTrack is affected by it.

The last few morning flights my bag has been sat on the Security scanner because people at the other end have nowhere to go.

i wouldn't rule that out. he's not really a chequebook manager and has said as much but he is a proper football man and still needs backing properly. our owners are carpetbaggers. 

According to the Mirror, his training regimen is causing depression among the players.

That's why I only fly business class.

 

No hassle, no worry.

I've got a stack of Fast track passes from where I've landed before 8am, and noticed that the queues for the great unwashed are next to nothing.

However, this 8am thing going out thing seems to be the problem. I often fly out at that time of morning, and there are never enough desks open, even in FastTrack.

Yet there are people milling around doing sod all, so I dread to think how many are sat in the office reading the paper and playing candy crush.

It's not difficult to arrange a shift pattern that has more staff on at peak than other times.

It's a combination of laziness and imbecility.

 

That's going to line a good few corporate pockets eh?

Drain the Swamp!

though, I always do use this :

https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere

 

though, I think certificate system remains fairly broken, not sure on the latest , re: which browsers allows which root certificates, etc

Well that isn't a bad idea, but I believe it simply tries to enforce HTTPS, I don't think it does any certificate validation.

Let's not.

It's quite obvious that Ranieri could no longer motivate them.

Well that was just like rolling the clocks back twelve months wasn't it!!  I wonder what Claudio Ranieri thought of that performance?

Probably unprintable.

Then why don't you educate her?

Perhaps if she knows the truth she will spread the word.

Not updated since 2011.

 

Well I think that shows where the problem was then.

I think the owners made the right decision (and a brave one at that).

rule #1  ....    never put cash in any bag .....  keep it with you.

rule#2  ....  if traveling on buses, trains or airplane, always have a padlock on all bags.

 

geeeeeezz  ....     its just common sense .....

Most bags have zips and that makes a padlock useless.

A large Bunnahabhain in my case you scamp.

Yeah I know you, 100 Pipers innit.

Precisely.

It's not a question of shops moving up, most of the ones I used to use just moved out due to lack of business.

Some great Wenger out vids on Youtube now Chicog.

 

Do you find great amusement sitting down with a glass of Margaux and flicking through them as I do?

I think you mean Blue Nun or similar.

20Mb is fine, but the free streams are rarely reliable, infested with ads and likely to infect your PC if you aren't careful.

Better to subscribe to a decent streaming service like Flawless or SmoothStreams.

Seems like a poor choice to me.  The democrats have an enormous amount of re-building to do and this appears to be the wrong man for the job 

Agreed. The first thing they need to do is hire an ex-NSA or CIA CISO to come in and sort out their IT.

Yeh you got to love those Vietnamese bagel sandwiches, they learned how to do it right from the large Jewish community there before they blew them away at Diem Ben Phu or some such place.

You really know your bread Streetsweeper.

I like the Vietnamese baguettes apart from the head cheese.
