Very nice - people still can't believe I'm down 30. Of course many said I didn't look as if I were almost 230 :rolleyes:

Potato, tomato (vinegar and basil), zucchini, so many great veggies.

Absolutely - I have a light dinner tonight of fish, carrots, and a bit of cereal and shelf-stable milk.

Got his business card as he asked if I would be interested in sitting on a pannel to discuss their frequent flyer program and promotions. Time to learn about AF.

Let him know if he needs a telephone panelist from TN - I've flown them the last two holiday seasons.

:eek:

One of the things I miss most about living in the UK is being able to get Gold Top Milk at the store. It was soooooooo good. It had a layer of heavy cream that floated on top of the bottle, like a half-dollar of creamy goodness. ^

Don't let them off on it!

I have the proper authorities on the hunt for concerns. I wouldnt be so upset if it wasnt still selling the flights at 100% EQMs. The fine print in the bottom in my opinion simply says that the full amount of miles earned for the flight may not be displayed not that the credit will not be at the advertised rate.

:mad:

Sad that I am doing this all for 2600 miles but that is alot when it comes to EQ time!!

Agent tried to talk about how this has been the case since 1997 when I joined and all. I explained that LH was not a partner back then and that I dont pay whatever I want for the flights based on what I want vs what the website tells me and CO shouldnt tell me one thing and do the opposite. UGH!!

I was told that the ability for CO.Com to show the proper amount of EQMs for the flight when purchasing is not possible and too complicated for the computer. I responded that if the computer can process the flight cost it can display the proper fare class on the website. To me this is deceptive advertising of miles. If it had displayed 50% or 0% that would be one thing but to display as 100% and only get 50% that is poor it at work here.

Rant OFF

What class were you booked on?

The shelf-stable milk generally comes as part of the Angelfood shipments but is also great for the folks who do disaster preparedness ...

I was undressing when I realized I should have taken that photo. The base way to describe it is I looked sort of like I was wearing a kilt.

I was booked in S Class and according to my receipt at the time and if you were to purchase the flights today you would earn 100% EQMs. After not getting the full miles and visiting the website and talking in the BOX I find out that those fares only earn 50% miles. If I had known that at purchase I would have flown on CO and not LH!! Or atleast credited to BD and not CO.

If you say one thing on the reciept it should be that way. I am sure many people have had the same issue as me. I believe even ALCO, the father of miles, thought the same thing!!

Hey, have you ever had nice cold cup of "rice-dream"?? I'd rather lick the floor of a taxicab.

Nowhere close. I'm actually pretty bad at pure mileage running. I prefer doing DRs (Destination Runs).

Did you wear said kilt in the manner a true Scottsman would? :o
