Ryanair to abolish check-in desks

Ryanair is a canny company which understands its customers needs.

I see no problem in principle with abolishing check-in desks but they also say they are working towards a situation where only one in five customers check in luggage. This sounds extraordinary to me. I know I do not understand the meaning of travelling light but surely for a 14 day holiday one needs more luggage than can be fitted in a normal carry on case. Or have I missed something?

Nuclear subs collide in the Atlantic

Is it just me that refuses to take this story at face value?

In all the seas, in all the world how can two such relatively small vessels collide?

Unless of course they were playing silly buggers stalking each other, or something similar?
