Just a warning.

Although it was over 12 months ago, we returned from Luxor to the UK, at Luxor Airport they tried to overcharge for the Baggage that we knew was exactly right in the weight, so beware all they are all on the take.

[TWR]

I argued my case & told them they where wrong. In my hand Luggage we had a Digital hand scale that I said I would use, this in-turn had everyone looking. End of story

[spudqueen]

I'm not sure you would really have won the argument - they obviously backed down because you were making a fuss. All scales that are used regularly in a business situation have to be calibrated - I work in a Post Office and we have to calibrate our scales once a week, and Trading Standards can come in and check at any time that our scales are correct. Presumably their scales were calibrated - but could you prove that yours were?

[4getmenot]

argued your case! lol... sorry

[TWR]

Spudqueen, I understand your Answer Re/ Calibration, this was one of my Questions to the Clerk, the person could in a fashion speed fairly good English, by this time the queue was building up, this might have been in my favour but I stood my ground, As regards your post 4getmenot I do not make a habit of coming on here with inconceivable post's!! with your reply I take it you would pay up? It takes all sorts of people to be ripped off, I am not one of them people, I would, if need be help other people that I thought that are getting ripped off.

Trading standards? In Luxor? You gotta be joking.

[TWR]

dezug, have you just got up? or have you been on the PZZZ? dId I mension T.S.?

[4getmenot]

I was referring to your 'pun' argued your case?? luggage?? case?? get it?? Obviously not!!! jeeeeez

[spudqueen]

I got it 4getmenot

[4getmenot]

[bednobs]

i think twr is possibly a little grumpy. I got your joke, and also the fact that spudqueen had mentioned trading standards, which is clearly what dzug was replying to

[TWR]

Its me that should have awoken, Apologies 4getmenot.

[4getmenot]

Ok I'll let you off, but just this once :-) Maybe I should have said 'get off my case' lol

[TWR]
