@ HMPS & AnaTravel ... we are not needy snowflakes, just mature adults with minimal requirements. White wine chilled, vaguely edible food, a flat-bed seat and the same number of landings and take-off works fine for us. We are long-since completely immune to marketing!
@ HIDDY ... last I heard PtF was still in traction, but that may be a false rumour.

Without defending what happened to the OP, I can fully sympathise with what several crew members have stated. When I was younger, I could pull of a handful of 4 hr nights and function. These days, 4 hrs and I cant even get out of bed. I have never been able to sleep on command either. Im glad Ive never had a job working shifts, but I do worry about the potential consequences of a screwed up body clock.

ENS100 - thats interesting - me too! JFK-LHR last year upper deck. . Worst ever crew and a struggle to get anything. G&T arrived with main course, had to ask for wine, etc..... now trying out other options for long haul.

HIDDY - Phil the Flyer has never been, not ever will be invited to my house although he is very capable of inviting himself anywhere. He has discovered the joys of QR (or whatever the code is) and we have lost him. Worry not. One crack of my hairbrush and he'll come running.
Flygirl68 - I have made many men's eyes water. They often go weak in the presence of beauty - as you know from personal experience.
Quite what this has to do with indolent crew I cannot say, but at least this has become a real BA thread as of yore.
