I've been sat here 10 hours now waiting for a flight to Edinburgh.

I'm bored and lonely... anyone fancy a chat frown?

10 hours trapped in Birmingham, you have my sympathy laugh

You could always find yourself a nice £8 cup of tea tongue out

My car is only in Leamington Spa, had I known the flight would be this delayed then I would have driven there by now!

Well if you'd checked the news recently you would have known that Scotland was getting a battering today!

Yes but the 'reassurance' from FlyBe that we would only be delayed by an hour... then another hour... then another hour kept me there!

I've managed to do a shed load of work towards my OU degree though smile

The later flight has been cancelled according to the FlyBe website.

I'd say your chances of flying are pretty slim, you can always choose to rebook as they've delayed by more than 5 hours.
