Looking at the picture of people cosying up in comfy sofas , I'd say "abandoned" is hardly the word to describe things.


Abandoned conjures up images of people lying on the floor, spreading their jackets and dupattas or huddled up in some forgotten corner of the airport.

I actually was sipping tea and nibbling on some biscuits ...
But the picture you posted basically conveys my point that they were certainly " inconvenienced" , but didnt appear "abandoned"..

Bizarre! Yesterday the same website showed a completely different photo, with people sitting on the floor. Which is why I scolded ssbmat.
