All I Need is A Minute of Silence

I am on my 30 minute flight to Guernsey to visit Andrea since I happen to have a day off today and Monday. But the flight feels really long and exhausting. Since we boarded, a group of friends have been talking really loudly feels like they are screaming on top of their lungs. They have not stopped and it is almost landing.
They have gotten a couple of ugly looks from fellow passengers but they seem to be oblivious to it. They left me worn out and frustrated. I do not mind people talking on flight but they do not have to scream and laugh like they own the place. I have never seen such an inconsiderate bunch and this I swear was the noisiest flight of my life.
I really just need a moment of silence now. I feel like they gave me a migraine. I pray I do not ride with them again on Monday.

I hope you and Andrea have a lovely time this weekend. Hopefully, you will never see any of those people again.

I am now off the plane and headache is dissipating. I was almost running away out of the aircraft. @DaddyEvil (137678)

@flapiz I was sure a little distance... and some humor... was all that was needed to put you in a good mood again.

@DaddyEvil I really am quite a patient person but lately I have been cranky. I am wondering if it is the stress of too many things happening all at once.

That flight does sound harrowing but hope you have a wonderful weekend and those people aren't on your return flight..

@Marilynda1225 Yeah I doubt the earphones can drown out those loud voices though. I wonder if they are deaf that's why they shout at each other.

@flapiz I'm sure the odds of them being on your return flight is slim but good that you're prepared with earphones just in case

I am very sorry because I know how frustrating this can be. Years ago on a flight from France to Atlanta (Georgia), 8 hours flight, there was a 2 year old kid sitting in our same row who screamed and cried during all the flight. Even the flight attendant cried because she could not rest for a moment.
