Tim's Blog: December 2008
http://flyingtim.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 01, 2008. Well sorry for such a long time between posts - it's now December 1st! You'd think at a time of a national financial crisis people would not only value the fact they have jobs but do everything possible to prevent them from losing them. Some people in the country are not as fortunate, having lost their jobs at a time when finding a new job is hard. If I dumped rubbish on someone's front garden like this I would most probably (and quite rightly) be arrested! On a lighter note, I...

Tim's Blog: Embarrassing Moment In Flight
http://flyingtim.blogspot.com/2008/08/embarrassing-moment-in-flight.html
Sunday, August 17, 2008. Embarrassing Moment In Flight. Here's something that happened to me on yesterday's inbound Sharm El Sheikh flight;. I was selling drinks and snacks to passengers and one lady requested to pay by credit card. One rule we have for this is that passengers need to present their passport for the number as our credit card machine is not connected to the bank at 35,000ft! Passport as you're the card holder - not your husband's passport." She then said "that is. 2:20 AM, August 21, 2008.

Monday, January 19, 2009. Russ and I went for a day out in Birmingham and found this on a shop! Not impressed. This is a classic mistake and offenders should be made to run across hot coals until they learn how to use apostrophes. End of. Sunday, January 18, 2009. Savings and crunch (rant). Firstly, happy 2009! Now I need to address an issue about money. I don't usually like talking about money because too many other people do, and it can be a bit of a sensitive issue.

Wednesday, May 21, 2008. The Rising Cost Of Fuel. Petrol is now at record high prices. I was reading in the local Cheltenham newspaper how the 'credit crunch' is affecting people, and for those on lower incomes the message is not good. Petrol is going to be the main topic of this post because without the risk of sounding self indulgent (this is a personal blog afterall) petrol prices affect me the most. Is the government really getting much more money from this? What else can we do to combat this?

Thursday, September 04, 2008. What Happened To The Friendly Postman? The title says it all. As does Royal Mail's slogan. The post arrived as per usual this morning, and one package could not be pushed through the door, so the postman rang the doorbell. I answered, said "good morning, thankyou very much" and he said. absolutely nothing. Not even a nod or a smile. You should see George Hogg's blog www.hoggstar.wordpress.com and if you scroll back a bit you will find an article on "Postman Kev"!

Sunday, January 18, 2009. Savings and crunch (rant). Firstly, happy 2009! Now I need to address an issue about money. I don't usually like talking about money because too many other people do, and it can be a bit of a sensitive issue. On this occasion the government is beginning to annoy me. Due to the recession we're all being encouraged to spend every penny we have to help the UK economy. It is funny that a couple of years ago Tony Blair was encouraging us all to save. I put a chunk of my salary into m...

Tim's Blog: October 2008
http://flyingtim.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 17, 2008. An amusing observation yesterday. I pulled up at the Gatwick Tesco and parked the car. Opposite my car and slightly to the right was a taxi. On the side and on the roof it said "Helen's Taxis." I thought it was unusual to have a taxi firm named after anything that doesn't begin with the letter 'A' or the number '1' for the sake of the race to the top spot in the Yellow Pages. This made me chuckle. It would look good on my landing. I mean. why? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
