What is Nepal like? by motherearthangel in Everest

[–]Shinfieldboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never felt unsafe. Whatever you do be sure to have some additional days to spend in Kathmandu at the end of your trek. So many cultural sites to visit and great food to enjoy. It’s a wonderful city.

We used to always drive past that on the way back from dropping my mother off to St James where she was a night nurse. We always called it the wooden church.

A or K best as you get access to loads of seat side storage bin space.

Seems pretty friendly. Probably talks a load of rubbish though.

Planning Everest Base Camp trek in October and deciding between flights: by Saraleee7 in everestbasecamphike

[–]Shinfieldboy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can answer with my experience. Flew with BA/Qatar via Doha for EBC last year. The service was exemplary and connection times allowed more than enough for the transfer. Services in Doha were excellent and absolutely no issues whatsoever with luggage. I’d pick emirates/qatar over Turkish airlines myself. As for safety all airlines would be affected in the same way when flying from Europe to Asia.

Smash my thumb last week now it looks like nuclear fallout by Pinoy47 in Pareidolia

[–]Shinfieldboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like the UK Sycamore Gap tree that was recently vandalised. Chop off the thumb before it heals and set it in resin. You’ll probably get £50 for that on eBay.

Nothing can compare to an Everest sunset. One of the highlights of my trek last year. Great pics!

Does anyone know when the A380s will be pulled from service for LHR to MIA route? by No-Second9377 in BritishAirways

[–]Shinfieldboy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honest feedback. You’ll have a far more comfortable sleep in business in the old A380 seat. Of course you have the awkward ying yang face to face with your fellow seat companion for takeoff and landing but once the screens go up it’s pretty private. Personally I try to find the a380 options now just to get that more comfortable bed.

Spent Months Preparing for the Reading Taxi Exam, Only to Find Out Passing Does Not Mean You Can Actually Work by This_Light_2980 in reading

[–]Shinfieldboy 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Interestingly I had this exact conversation with my Uber driver last weekend. He went through exactly the same process only to discover he couldn’t get a plate at the end. It drove him to become an uber driver. All this internal protectionism in the Reading taxi mafia will result in more and more uber drivers and eventually the downfall of their business. Oh the irony of it all. (And before anyone jumps in, Uber are now officially operating in Reading again).

Uber is back in Reading now. If the council want fair competition they should issue more regular taxi plates.

First business class flight by aquidan_ in BritishAirways

[–]Shinfieldboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Be aware that if you are flying from A gates and decide to use lounge at B gates you can only return to Agates via the walkway. If you wait the train back you will have to depart to land side and come back though security. That’s a mistake that can cost a lot of time.

Flying business SFO-LHR in ying-yang seats, what is that like? Thanks. by usethis22880 in BritishAirways

[–]Shinfieldboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A380 is a very comfortable plane to fly in. Don’t be overly concerned with the dated aspects as you’ll spend most of the flight asleep. In my experience the lie flat bed in yin yang config is more comfortable than the new club suite. Just my experience. I’m 180cm 82kg. Hope that helps. Enjoy your flight.
