I'm a little worried about the talks that're happening at the moment. Gate Gormet are threatening to go into administration at 5pm unless British Airways agree to a new contract worth more money to Gate Gormet.

BA are saying they won't give the new contract unless Gate reemploy the 600 workers who were sacked last week. But Gate Gormet aren't budging on the move and say the cuts were necessary for the continuing operation of their company; They're currently losing £25 million per annum.

If Gate Gormet don't cave in and re-employ the sacked staff, then the Union has said they will ballot for strike action. And that's the bit that scares me.

A few of days for balloting and counting puts the industrial action at the weekend. Just when I want to fly out to San Diego. If there are strikes at the weekend that cause distruption to my flight, I'm going to be really quite upset; I've been really exciting and looking forward to my Birthday holiday for so long now, if there's any problems I'll be so pissed off.
