Disaster strikes

The first leg of our journey meets disaster!
As we are trying to board our plane to Tokyo we are informed that there is overbooking and that one of us has to stay in Holland!
The chosen one can fly business class, but the victim will have to fly to Paris while lucky bastard number one sleeps comfortably in the arms of a blond waitress.
Three extra hours in frog eater country will let you board the shitty Air France non business flight while number one is already over Siberia.
Of course I lose the coin toss and stay here, cold, alone and sad.
Only one things makes me happy: I get 600 euros cash to spend.
Open question: what would you do with 600 in the geek capital of the world?

Ps: they have told me already they are going to lose my baggage. Don't you love planes?

  1. Joooooooder. Vaya putada. Espero que al menos te hayas comprado un iPad con la pasta.
    At least I hope you bought an iPad with the money.

  2. well I hope you're on your way by now, if not then I take it they have a bar, and you have 600 euros... :-)

    I hope you and your baggage are reunited soon and you can get this thing started, sir.

  3. I agree with Felix

    The money should be spent on an iPad, so hours can be wasted playing PVZ and Orba.

    I hope your bag turns up or the 600 euros will have to be a new heavier tent and sleeping bag.

  4. Vaya, pues si que empezamos bien. Ahora nada más que falta que cuando lleguéis a hobbiton os diga Frodo que el anillo se lo dejó olvidado en la última juerga que se pegó en París y os tengáis que volver a buscarlo ;-)
    Bueno, ánimo y paciencia que todo se pasa.
