In the EU, and UK, there are pretty good rules for refunds. I got £500 refund for a delayed American flight. Paid quite promptly.

On grass can be fun! If itchy....

Ho, ho!

By contrast, Champaign Urbana, 5 flights a day, absolutely charming! Perhaps size matters (pun intended)!

On this trip, La Guardia, American terminal. Though the (new) terminal itself is very nice.

It's immigration that bugs me as a UK guy. The US is quite behind in using electronic monitoring, such as we have in the UK. I recently discovered the MPC App, which did speed up my 2 recent entries, but it could be a lot better. I considered Global Entry, but the procedure, including an interview in the USA, is inconvenient. I have also found that officials still like to throw their weight around, on minor matters, 'stand in line', etc. As you say it all detracts from the experience of travel.

Well I don't speak any Portuguese! My problem.

We also have what we call minicabs, which have to be booked. I use one myself, as I know the driver, who is reliable, and you can book weeks in advance. They are more expensive than Uber. An Uber driver still, sometimes, cancels the booking, having accepted it, and if you are going to the airport, this is no fun.

Quite! And see my comments about New York!

I see one boy each time I am here. This time he confirmed that the 'going rate' was 400, though I got a discount, to 350, as a regular! I saw another guy tonight, whom I hadn't seen for 3 years. He is really attractive, African American and Native American. Sex was great, and he only wanted 300. He is not on escort sites any more, so he may be a bit out of touch. I gave him a big tip, though, as I almost drowned in his cum!

Rookie?

Will he get the reference?

Keep taking the tablets!

Mind you Lyft were cheaper than Uber, maybe 20%. In London Uber remain cheaper, but that is probably because London Black cabs are rather expensive.

Yes, thanks, I have the Curb app!

Not really on topic, but I am in New York, and yellow cabs are significantly cheaper than Uber. Odd, I thought.

There are always misguided people in this world.

Well, I'm in New York at present, and most guys are asking $400. Got one down to 350! One asked for 500. I politely declined!

It's all politics, as usual.

I fear that I am both....

Thanks. I am happy to be out of date!

A lot of members on here also have a 'stage name'. Pretty common, I think.

Tattoos are fairly minimal compared to some! I could cope with those on offer. Nice to see boys in jockstrap!

Not me, I also find CDG to be difficult, and inefficient.

True, but STD also means lost days, or weeks!
