Halfway into the flight, there was a shudder. The pilot announced over the speaker "I'm terribly sorry ladies and gentlemen but due to loss of power in our right-hand engine, our arrival in New York will be delayed by half an hour. We apologise for any inconvenience".
The two lads tutted and swore a bit.
About another hour in, there was an even bigger shudder followed by a jolt. Once again the pilot made an announcement "We are so sorry ladies and gentlemen to inform you that we have now also lost power to our left-hand engine. Due to this our arrival time will be delayed by a further hour".
The two lads look at each other aghast "For Gods sake!" says Paddy
