And the award goes to...

The idiot at Heathrow who tried to use an A380 upper tier air-bridge to connect to our little SAS A319. For some reason it wouldn't move down to our plane very quickly - and then got stuck.

So they called for some steps to be delivered at the back, which arrived promptly - only for there to be no ground staff to direct us safely to the terminal building.

30 mins later they discover the lower tier air-bridge - and use that instead. Everyone disembarks - to find the door at the top of the air-bridge is locked. The embattled BAA employee plodded up the ramp to let us out - not a word was said.

I was rivetted to each and every word!

Right up until the word "award", when I fell into a deep and peaceful slumber...
