    I hear Lisbon is very nice at this time of year.
    more likely he'll head to holland to "relive" his youth instead

    Hey, I don't like what the man is doing but he should be allowed some kind of privacy.

    He may well have done, but my guess is that he was just hassled by the airport, taxis, hotel check-out, flight check-in, kids, wife....

    I'd happily accept full personal responsibility for the end of the Celtic Tiger and the global downturn if it could get me out of the airport experience.

    it IS a bloody annoyance. i seem to remember hearing a report on the radio that ferry travel has increased by over 7% since all this security mullarky went mental. cant blame people really, including the extra time your stuck at the airport before hand you'd get to the UK at least just as quick
