We too were charged 110 euros last week by @Ryanair after trying to book in online for 2 days before flight and speaking to customer services. @eDreams gave us the wrong info, @ryanaire refused to correct the mistake. @BBC_HaveYourSay bbc.com/news/business -66500479. #ripoff

Timothy J. Keller, husband, father, grandfather, mentor, friend, pastor, and scholar died this morning at home. Dad waited until he was alone with Mom. She kissed him on the forehead and he breathed his last breath. We take comfort in some of his last words...
