You would think that even a tabloid journalist could spell correctly wouldn't you............"Holidaymakers were left waiting in the rain for hours following new rules introduced by the Gorvernment - as airlines warned passengers to arrive three hours early"

I think sometimes you can look and look and look again, and still see what you expect to see, while missing something obvious, as I did reading the OP several times.

I will be sure to consult the Gransnet Police before starting a thread in the future.

Why do you and others use that meaningless expression? Gransnet Police There’s no such thing. What there is are posters like myself ( and others here) who see posts that are meaningless, and say so.
