I was on that flight but just wanted to be Left to My Own Devices but I did hear they were flying in to see the West End Girls.

Brendan O'Carrol and Jennifer Gibney of Mrs. Browns Boys going through Fast Track at T5 security yesterday afternoon, not sure where they were going but managed a little bit of small talk whilst going through security.
Brendan O'Carrol's potty mouth is as good in real life as when he is Mrs. Brown!
Absolutely delightful.

She was in F on the earlier flight to LHR and met on arrival. As it happens it was one of the poorest F service flights I have been on. Formal complaint made online. If she chooses to, she would also have good grounds to complain for the (lack of) service offered to her.

Very sorry to hear this rjn21, but my curiosity is stoked now. Can you say some more? I say this as a semi-regular F passenger (perhaps 2-4 return trips a year) and as it is quite infrequent it does concern me a little in case I get a duff flight for my hard-earned holiday.

Washbags, slippers and PJs offered to some seats only.
Main course food options ran out. Crew specifically refused, despite request, to operate the service standard to take all orders and then see if there was an excess of meal requests, and if so allocate available meals according to status. Instead they chose to prioritise meal allocation by seat row number - “as there are 9 gold card holders in first”.
Meal offered from club but only after prompting. (Declined as didn’t need to eat anyway, just something to do to pass the time).
1:00 hour after take off, first drinks order taken.
1:30 after take off first drink delivered.
2:00 after take off canapés delivered.
No red water glass or any water provided with dinner. Water twice requested but not provided. No personal water bottle provided.
Bedding not taken away.
Plates with leftover food stored on floor of galley.
No chocolates offered after dinner.
Breakfast tea served in a mug from the large brew pot, not an individual cup and teapot.
Some of the above definitely affected Ms GC.
