Technie delay causes poverty

Just a moan - for the second time to my personal knowledge in just over 2 weeks, the Basel-London Gatwick morning flight has 'gone techie'. Last time I could laugh gently at some of my friends and their group of students as they were stuck for 4 hours whilst I jetted off to London City. Now it's my turn to be bitten in the bum as I've now been slotted for an 8 hour delay which has cost me my onward flight to Reykjavik with Iceland Express.

Of course there's nothing I can do - except enjoy my free coffee and pastry with an incredibly bitter taste - and I've had to book a one-way with Icelandair and connect to Heathrow to continue our booked and paid for holiday in Iceland.

Just a moan - .... happens. Hope you all get away on time and with all your luggage!
