I’ve enjoyed getting my points up on @TurkishAirlines. And the lounge at Istanbul is wonderful. But it’s a shame when rude baggage staff at @igairport ruin the experience. They took all our baby’s food, leaving her hungry and screaming. Despite this on their site

One of the offending pouches, returned after 40 mins of insistence. Excuses included: it’s over 120cl. She doesn’t need 4 of them. It’s adult food. It’s fruit juice. You didn’t tell us it was baby food. You agreed to us taking it. Maybe just learn your own rules and admit error?

The commentary in the background is so gloriously middle-class British.

Terrible execution. To the Nordic mind this is the most attractive, beautiful, enticing design conceivable. I bet this made thousands start smoking

Your car does 45mpg but that's a bit boring. Is there a more powerful way of showing that?

That's some hard-hitting nominative determinism right there!
