Sometimes You Have To Just Laugh At BA
Just flown TRN to LGW in CE and looking forward to the afternoon Cream Tea. A rather red faced FA was very apologetic and said, "it's a cream tea....but without a scone"
When I asked why she said, "I just think they forgot to load the scones". So it was the usual savoury sandwiches, plus a pot of jam and carton of cream still served....but no scone
Caused a fair bit of amusement......brilliant

All in all, a really good flight (minus the scones ) because it always seem a risk arriving early nowadays as there is often no ground staff available to meet the flight until the allotted landing time.

Because it was a cream tea without a scone but the Jam and Clotted Cream were still on the tray, rendering them somewhat useless. Coupled with the highly embarrassed (but honest) FA saying, "I just think they forget to load them"

It pushed back from TRN bang on time at 15:15, we were airborne within 5-7 minutes and landed at LGW about 15-20 minutes early. Jetty connected within a few minutes and we were off the plane
