LOL John..I have had to digit out of my files and dust off the cobwebs to remember it all myself ;o) always warms the cockles to read it again!
On a British Airways flight from Johannesburg, a middle aged, well-off white South African lady has found herself sitting next to a black man. She called the cabin crew attendant over to complain about her seating.
''What seems to be the problem, madam?'' asked the attendant. ''Can't you see?'' she said ''You have sat me next to a kaffir. I can't possibly sit next to this disgusting human. Find me another seat!!''
''Please calm down, madam'' replied the stewardess ''The flight is very full today, but I'll go and check to see if anything is available in club or first class'' The woman cast a snooty look at the outraged black man beside her, as well as the other passengers. A few minutes later the stewardess arrived to deliver the good news.
''Madam, unfortunately as I suspected economy is full. I have spoken to the services diretor and club is also full. However we do have a seat in first class''. Before the smug lady had a chance to answer the stewardess continued...''It is most unusual to make this kind of upgrade, however I have spoken to the Captain who thought that given the circumstances, it was outrageous that someone should be forced to sit next to such an obnoxious individual''
The stewardess then turned to the black man and said '' So if you would like to get your things, sir ~ we have a seat waiting for you''
At which point, aparently the surrounding passengers stood up and clapped while the man walked up to the front of the plane..leaving the woman speechless :o)
