It's CAMpeones, campeones olé olé olé. Not CHAMpeones. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk and UTA. 🔴⚪️

(Also, can we have a vote on who's "at the back" and who's "in attack" so we're all on the same lyrics?)

I always find these useful, so here's my recent experience. I know it's technically new passports and not renewal, but they had passports already, so potato/potato, it felt like a renewal!

We're in Buffalo, NY and have overseas travel leaving July 17th. We booked an in-person appointment (after being told during walk-in hours at a different location that the branch manager "said we weren't doing passports right now." Cool) at 9am on Weds June 24. Took tons of docs because both kids were born overseas and the guidance from DoS is not clear as to proof of citizenship for overseas births of US citizens. *All we needed were their Consular Reports of Birth Abroad*; I did not need, eg, my dates

Of our remaining home games, I can only go to A. Fulham + Atleti OR B. Burnley. If you were in my shoes, which option would you choose? ⚖️

I thought I'd make a post specifically about the Heathrow terminal 5 Sofitel, as there wasn't much about it on Reddit when I looked before booking.

First and foremost, it's walking distance to T5 and the rooms are pretty nice, so for late arrivals or early departures where you know you won't have the time/patience for shuttles, it's handy. I booked a few weeks in advance and it was £189, which was a fair whack more than my normal Travelodge spend rate, but not prohibitively expensive for my purposes (I was expecting closer to £250, tbh)

I had an early departure so was coming from central on the Liz Line. The lift takes you straight up to departures, so that's where I started from and

TL;DR - driver dropped me off in parking garage so he could pick up another fare instead of dropping me at departures. Can't find the correct option to file a complaint, any suggestions?

I just took a trip from Central London out to Heathrow. En route my driver asked what time my flight was (18:00) and asked if the projected arrival time of 16:35 would be ok (not much to be done if it's not, but I digress) and I said I'd have enough time. I mention this because he knew I wasn't exactly spoiled for time.

When we pulled in to the airport, he said something about going to "get help" and pulled into short term parking. I repeatedly asked him what he was doing and said I wanted to go to depart

I ordered a big bundle of about 15 pairs of kids' pajamas. Most of the listings had one picture, some of which are very blurry/poor quality (some are clearly screen shots of screen shots). So I knew that I was chancing it a bit. Most were listed in Good condition and are, but one pair has some brownish-black staining that could be food or mildew that's not remotely visible in the picture because the resolution quality is so poor. They were about £4 a pair, so I'm not going to faff around with a refund request for that money, but my inclination is to dock a star or two and say something like "Good communication and quick shipping, but several pictures are poor quality and one pair of pajamas

I've always sat in the East Stand Upper, directly behind (though higher up) a camera, so I am never visible on TV broadcasts. For those of you who always sit in regularly-televised seats, do you look for yourself in the crowd or is it a non-event because you're always there? I've often wondered how aware you are of the constant possibility of being broadcast.

Truly one of the very best BA IT quirks is how Manage My Booking has (at least?) two different 'versions', one of which is helpful and allows you to view your e-receipt and estimated Tier Points and one of which is useless and allows me to, I dunno, look at a link to some sort of insuance cover I'm not going to buy.

Does anyone know how to "force" the system to show you the useful version of MMB? I've tried going through my account and through Find My Booking and on desktop and mobile. (In this specific instance I want to see the estimated TPs, but I also prefer it generally)

I did search the sub! The most recent "pizza and wings" thread mostly digressed into comments on the wholesale price of wings (fair enough) and I'm also not limiting it to a pizzeria, so there is not a recent previous post to help me in my quest, alas.

So! Which place has the best takeout (ie can be ordered in advance and picked up) wings? I think Bar Bill in EA does them, but my logistical needs dictate kinda NB, Amherst, Williamsville & surrounds, but all suggestions are helpful for future Reddit searchers!

I know we're mostly griping here, so wanted to say I had an excellent experience at Heathrow this morning changing my flight from JFK to YYZ in anticipation of the potential snow omnishambles at JFK. The gentleman who helped me out (thanks Mohsen!) and the person he spoke to in ticketing were super helpful and efficient. The whole thing took maybe five minutes (and, to my shock, cost only £95??). I thought it'd be quite an expensive palaver, so I'm delighted all around.

(And, of course, have told the ba.com feedback robots the same)
