In the greater scheme of things this isn't that big a deal to Ryanair - it affects 2% of their capacity for a period of about a month, so maybe 200,000 customers when they carry north of 100 million a year. You could take the view that whilst bad PR, it demonstrates their operation is obviously lean as fuck so I reckon any share price fall should rebound pretty quickly. If they can up the recruitment and refine their resource models they should be in a pretty good place as capacity increases over the next couple of years.

That Horizon about Cassini was good. Though the highlight for me was twigging that the narrator was Johnson from Peep Show.

There are also some teenagers that come every so often. Some are with their parents and you can tell just by looking at them that they are absolutely mortified to be getting food from a soup run. There are also a few others who were definitely sleeping rough. There was four of them in total and they had set up a tent in the Phoenix's park to try look out for each other. They would never say why they all left home and we didn't push it either as it's not our place to do so. They were not on drink or drugs but in the back of my head, I couldn't help but worry that the longer they stay on the streets, the more likely it is to happen.

A soup run, that serves very little soup. On ironic levels, it's Alanis Morissette.

That is ironic. I've passed it plenty of times, or similar ones on different days?

Originally posted by Lao Lao View PostNormally vegetable soup m8 but we do lots more than soup. In fact, soup is actually a tiny part of what we serve. We give out clothes, serve tea/coffee/pot noodles. On cold food, we have sandwiches, fruit, chocolate bars, crisps, biscuits. Hot food can be anything from pasta, stew, coddle, curry & rice, it all depends on what we get.

All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

Originally posted by Lao Lao View PostI run a soup run every Monday night at the GPO. We've been doing it now since Feb 2016. We regularly get kids come to us for food. Some of the kids are from a few months to 6-7 years old and they are in emergency accommodation and have little to no cooking facilities which is why they come to us. There is one girl in particular who is only about 6 and she is an absolute dote, she always wants to help out or play with one of us and we duly (and are happy to) oblige (it also gives her mum a bit of a break) but it's also heart breaking that a 6 year old thinks it's perfectly normal to go to O'Connell St at 8PM to get fed.

Fair play Lao Lao. Reminds me of when I was dropping off a few sacks of baby clothes to the wimmins refuge centre in Rathmine’s recently. I was knocking away on the door and nothing, nobody answering.
I knocked harder, shouting , HELLO HELLO. Still nothing. I didn’t wanna return with my sacks still full.(oooh matron) So I banged again. (ooh) Nothing. I was about to get back into the car when the door opened and several wimmin of various colour jumped back as I appeared with a big grin.They must have thought I was there to kill them all the way they reacted.
Anyway, I explained and they relaxed their faces and took the clothes gratefully. We’re not all murderers girls. Still though, a pretty bleak life to be hiding from some violent manipulative bastard.
Been back since . Ring them 1st though.

That is not a joke by the way. That is really happening.
Latest polls show only 28% support for abortion on demand. But if there is something you believe is right and can help people you gotta go all the way. I believe it's right..so win or lose, we try our best.
