    Didn't make an emergency landing! Declared an emergency then landed. Declared an emergency so the aircraft would be directed to an apron where paramedics and ambulance would be waiting.

    In a related story a truck driver stopped for a piss at the emergency parking on the Chonburi motorway.

    In the Daily Mail that would be written up as "Thai TERROR alert as Muslim Extremists in South Thailand plan TOILET TERROR campaign. Thais advised not to use public toilets".

    Don't shoot the messenger many people's language skills diminish after prolonged exposure to the Daily Fail.The RTP have it blocked so as not to impair native fluency innit.

    In an update the passenger had a cardiac infarcture when comparing the fare to the "hostess"

    Wilson, I notice that when you take stories from the local press you change nothing, however dismally it is written.

    I suggest that in the same way, you don't make correctly worded headlines from the UK press incorrect.

    Doesn't appear to be too much of a detour as it was bound for London anyway
