Guess Martha that Paul had to start somewhere, if not RyanAir then Aer Lingus.
In the past he certainly did Aer Lingus. Certainly I would not fly with
RyanAir but as far as the tutorial goes I would certainly use the tutorial to
improve my IT Kills.

Hello Paul,
What is your fixation with Ryan Air?
Are you going to do the same type of tutorial on Aer Lingus?
