Michael O'Leary goes into a pub and orders a pint of Guiness.
"Sure, that'll be a punt", says the barman,
"That's cheap."
"Isn't it? Would you be wanting a glass with that?"
It's the same the whole world over
It's the poor what gets the blame
It's the rich what gets the pleasure
Isn't it a blooming shame?

If you jokingly talked about shooting people while waiting at the Ryanair check-in, you would end up in custody and not allowed to fly.

Flying with them regularly at the moment.

What gets me is the 'on time' landing music - it reminds me of the Hunger Games Capitol theme tune
A shortcut has to be a challenge, otherwise it would just be the way. No situation is so dire that panic cannot make it worse.

Dublin is great for cycling round - I've had basically no trouble at all.
Quite a few decent segregated paths, heavily used. The traffic is very slow, and the Irish seem to recognise that there is no point beating the cyclist off the lights when they'll only have to stop in twenty yards anyway

You could, of course, try Yorkshire airlines.

He's totally synonymous with the Ryanair brand and boy does he get it free exposure. Kind of a Clarkson of the air, perhaps.

Idiot? Probably not :wink:
