Willie Walsh (Chief Exec, British Airways) on TV talking about the Terminal 5 debacle
"We take responsibility for the mistakes we made"
Well who else, Willie? It certainly wasn't me. And what form will your "taking responsibility" take? The garbage that these people give out is just astounding.

Yes but you usually pay £10 one way, full price the other. A penny each way is cheapcheapcheap. And vaguely sinful.
"sinful" is a cliched euphemism. It has been defused. Like when it is associated with "vaguely". You can get to good fun fairly soon.
Actually it is diabolical and the work of evil spirits who seek the destruction of mankind for short term, and they are short term, reasons.
Went to the Lucas Cranach and Russia exhibitions today at the Royal Academy. Dead posh people swanning about. Metrosexuals all of them.
What do you think it means Steve?
Good God Spendy its way past your bed time dear boy.
What does it mean? What does anything mean? This I shall ponder subconsciously hopefully for 7 hours or so from now.
You wot? Leave it ehuwt. You're aving a laff, aincha?
I only ever shop for beer and there are no metrosexuals in the area of the bar where I lean. There are some grizzled old codgers who rely on me to keep their spirits up in the face of these unseemly attacks on their ways of thinking and it is hard work.
We had six women fighting last week. It shocked us all to the core. Three of them had been in the pub half the night and then this other three arrived. It seems that the defending gang contained a member who had been shagging some bloke who was the husband of one of the raiders. All six were strangers. The landlord threw them out unaided and blissful peace was restored.
Good while it lasted, was it?
Women can be incredibly vicious when they put their mind to it.
Luckily they don't do that often.
You're right Mac. It was all screeching. No fisticuffs or anything like that. A couple of drinks knocked over was the limit.
Bummer. No blood and snot flying? No weighted handbags weilded? No clumps of hair with bloody pieces of scalp still attached to clear up afterwards?
Call that a fight?
I know a guy called Ricky who had a fight with his brother when they were younger and afterwards, he found one of his brother's teeth embedded in his head.
Simply thrilled at an excellent win for Manchester United against those dirty cockney's who came up north to play dirty, even obtaining the one goal they were granted by a dirty stroke of the hand which the referee failed to take action against!
No doubt he will be unable to excuse himself when he sees the film coverage!
Manchester United 2 The Cockney's 1
Cockney's 6 yellow cards for dirty play!
Certainly ManU was better.
What we want Mathos is some before the event talk like I did for the Champion Hurdle, the Gold Cup and the Grand National. Katchit (10-1), Denman (9-4 second fav) and Comply or Die (7-1 jt.fav) No other selections offered.
Any dipstick can talk after the event. What use is that to man or beast?
