True. I wonder how the people on that Stansted flight will feel about (a) being told they're diverting to Dublin and (b) actually landing in Shannon?

RustyRightPeg Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 A1 was a death trap this morning. Couple of the big green road signs down, new build development signage down and close to blowing onto the road. Worst wind I've heard in a long long time. Had to put ear plugs in.
