    Difficult one.

    Put my grumpy old man hat on and I'd be incredibly irritated, but it's a baby we're talking about here and parents who are probably doing their best in tough circumstances. Imagine how they must feel.

    Turn up those headphones and drown the noise out or drink yourself into not caring ?

    Nothing we could do, so just have to be philosophical.

    Similar to having 7 dogs barking all night long next door in the Phils.

    Either get really stressed out or become accustomed to and accepting of it.

    Or plan C - go round, shoot them - dog adobo?

    As for babies on flights, well I'm torn between two camps. The real me who doesn't really care that much (It always seems to be the case that a long distance flight HAS to have a screaming baby on board, it's just one of those laws of physics)

    And the other hand which says that any parents taking a baby on a long distance especially night flight are incredibly selfish, and can't they just take their holidays in Mablethorpe for a couple of years.

    Ordinarily, I would wholly agree with your last sentence Ian.

    But, for us this is a whole lot more than just a jolly in the sun..(those days are well gone)

    For most in same situations as us, its a hard worked opportunity to see family who haven't been seen, as in my wife's case for nearly a couple of years...many go for decades b4 they go back.....its a chance for family to meet there cousins grandmother aunts..you name it..its gonna be a massive event for all concerned

    Plus a double Christening to boot

    Hardly comparable to A 2 weeks 'larding it' on a costa beach.

    Believe me, if we could get there via a magic carpet, we'd jump on
