What cheeses me off

Suits me; I'm always at a gate 15 mins prior to most-recent advertised boarding time. I like to walk around before a long flight. Haven't missed a 'good' bus yet.
In ~10 yrs, I’ve never had one of the throne buses in many, many, many, (painfully many) bus arrivals and departures flying J. I mean, a LOT of bus transfers. To the point that when I arrive or depart at an actual air bridge gate I’m reminded that they do actually exist.

The recent renos just seemed to add more bus gates…..😔

Ive only experienced bus gates at LHR - once when flying GLA-LHR and a couple of times at SYD when flying Fokkers which are too small for an aero bridge. Id be mighty miffed if I ended up on a bus for a larger jet like a A380 or B787.
 
Once, just once, at the large airports like IST, SIN, MAD, DOH etc, i’d like an arrival gate at the base of the pier, not the flipping end!
Heh... I must have got the jackpot too on my recent international trip. Pretty much arrival gates all on the far flung gates, or a bus gate (I learned BKK has bus gates... in the middle of whoop whoop, or however it is said in Thai).
 
So the horse riding sand arena is infested with Cobbler's Peg and only Cobbler's Peg.
Everything else killed off with Flumioxazin.
Its got these thin needle like black seeds which sticks on dog fur and clothes
The fastest kill would be Glyphosate but I dont want to use Glyphosate

Im going to try DiCamba

Apparently extra strong (stronger than Woolies vinegar) also works as a generic weedkiller.
The alternative would be a Gas burn off wand.
We used to remove the large weeds by hand then run a blade around behind the tractor on a sunny day so as to dislodge them and let the sun burn them off. We weren't allowed to use any chemicals period, owners where into the organic lifestyle and had the funds to do it.

Emirates does this very well. We were upgraded to First and the bus reflected that.

WCMO tonight is boarding started early and aircraft was fully loaded at least 10mins prior to scheduled departure, yet with zero weather issues still pushed back from gate 13 mins after scheduled departure and will probably be anither 10 before we take off.
