Interesting

Is there NO END to the talents of these wonderful people?

I think it's interesting that the authorities say they now believe they over reacted but I wonder how much damage/delayed flights/chaos there would have been had they not?

The old adage "Damned if you do and damned if you don't" comes to mind!

[Mayfly]

well apart from the litigation society where everyone needs to cover their own back - it is the attitude of the day!!!!

[Xplumberlives]

Personally I feel that the AUTHORITIES acted with everyones best interests at heart!

So do I, I feel sorry for those inconvenienced but I would rather be £2K out of pocket than dead!!!

We can only hope lessons have been learnt & they continue to do some research into potential problems
