Awful VA crew between Kalgoorlie and Perth

[PERLHR]

Had a VA flight from Kalgoorlie to Perth earlier in the week. Probably one of the worst for quite a while. Despite the boards being displayed for priority boarding and general, not used, one announcement, free for all, mad scrum. No WiFi onboard the 737 700. No real apology. CSD was useless. He first of all before departure went down the back to bring up to biz someone he obviously knew. Popped him into row 2 (we were in row 3), providing him a beer before departure and sat down and chatted to him. There was only one other pax in biz and thank god I did not bid for an upgrade. We got into the air then he continued to be chatty with his "friend". ...oh but they announced that since the flight was 55 (in smooth conditions) no tea or coffee would be served. I queried this and was told "flight is short".;Seriously in Europe and on BA I have had breakfast or lunch with 3 champagnes in that time of flight duration. The whole crew could not care. They did one rubbish run and there we we were left popping rubbish into the seat pocket in front. No recognition or even acknowledging VA Platinum...and I felt it left a very sour taste as he was obviously feeling he had better quality time sitting or serving his friend. It actually was so bad I think next time on the route to hell with VA and it will be Qantas. Quite astonishing at how bad this was. I have made a complaint by the complaints procedure form on line to VA and naturally I'm not expecting even a response!!
