Shoe-less, Sock-less & Scratching in the T5 First Lounge

These threads surface every now and again, I’ll be the guilty party this time.

A man in the T5 First lounge just now, scratching between his toes whilst on the phone. A pair of very shabby fabric sandals on the floor next to him 😱.

There’a a word for it, begins with ‘a’, can’t quite put my finger on it 😁

Jest not - I have already posted here about a man who started clipping his toenails in F - this was in the days when I was not a CSD and was working F. One of them flew through the air and landed in some other man's Champagne. I nearly had a fight on my hands.

To return to this thread. I am indebted to the OP for sharing this with us. My immediate reaction is to try and keep down the cup of tea that I just drank. I could tell you other similar stories but this is a family show and I would not want to upstage this revolting story of the Slob de Jour,

I apologise for any pearl clutching my post may have invoked darling Pucci, but tea at this time anywhere in the Western Hemisphere?, you’re having us on 😁😁😁
