after 12 months of trying to book our balloon flight - it was booked, on my calendar for tomorrow.
With all the stress and disruption the last few weeks have brought - I had put the wrong date down!
It should have been today!
The weather was awful this morning, extremely cold and freezing and guess what
- the flight actually happened!
All the beautiful days we had it booked on and it didn't go
-- Paul even taking time off work on a couple of occasions.
Rang VirginBalloons this morning to be told to ring back after mid-day
- to be told tough - you missed it!
You can pay another £80 each to book another date!
disgusted Virgin Balloons no heart!
and guess what - even Tom at Virgin said he was surprised the flight went ahead as most others had been cancelled.
Sums up everything!
* to expand a little further - my mother has just had two heart attacks since the beginning of October and with my sister, I am helping with her care, This has been extremely stressful - as she has been in hospital twice and sent home quite unwell.
Normally I am very good with administration and keeping records of appointment/meetings/important dates.
