Apparently there was a recent TV show entitled โHolidayโs in the 1970sโ didnโt realise it was also a audience participation opportunity or is that just for those of us queueing forever at #Venice airport while @Ryanair @askryanair checks everyone in slowly with 2 v sad operators
Yet another @askryanair @Ryanair @RyanairPress disaster @ #Venice airport. 2 operators trying to manage a queue which is now out of the terminal door @Ryanair @RyanairPress @askryanair any likelihood of managing this deteriorating situation

The ScottishPower Foundation paid a visit to our Glasgow centre to hear how their support has helped us make an even greater impact for unemployed women. Thanks to their generous support, we have been able to reach more women from ethnic minority backgrounds with our service.
