On the very rare occasion at school when I was kept in after class for half an hour or so for some terrible crime like talking, it seemed a very long time and very boring. However the French have managed to take things a massive stage further with a punishment so awful it beggars description and which it is inflicting on people who've done nothing wrong.
It's called Terminal E at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport and it was opened last month by their new President Sarcastic. Okay so there's loads of shops but nobody is shopping in them because apart from perfumes they don't sell anything that you would want. And if you're flying posh class there's a huge new lounge with unlimited supplies of free alcohol. However for snacks there are crisps, plain biscuits, little sponge cakes and.... well more crisps.
Believe me, after four and a half hours I was climbing the walls. Perhaps they should have sent Paris Hilton there. I'm sure she'd have fallen for it with the free alcohol package but it really is deceitfully inhuman.
