“I was covered in coffee,” Andrew from London tells our colleagues on 5 Live.

Lol they clearly asked him what he personally experienced. I'm sure the dude would have started with "what happened to others on the flight is terrible" or similar

This new flyer left his half filled coffee cup in the seat pocket and it got on my sweater on the way out, I had to wear a stink sweater with old coffee on my chest for the next 12 hours. I feel your pain Andrew from London

Oh my god Andrew, that must've been simply awful for you, poppet

We didn't need the "from London" bit, we could tell by the way he's a cunt
