The next time I fly to Ireland(if I ever return), I will use Aeroflot, 
rather than Aer Lingus as my airline of choice. My wife, 1 year old 
daughter and I were booked on flight AE 107 from Shannon to New York, 
with reservations for bulkhead seats. Wnen we checked in at Shannon, we 
were told that flight 107 was merged with another flight to NY, and 
that our bulkhead seat reservations were cancelled.  We were seated in 
the rear of the aircraft, an Airbus.
The rear toilets had no changing facilities for infants; only the 
forward toilets, which were not accessible due to the constant movement 
of food carts up and down the aisles, were so equipped, so we were 
forced to change our daughter's diapers in the seat (which we covered 
with a changing pad).
This auld cunt of a flight attendant named Avril Harriman saw my wife 
changing the baby's diaper at one point  and loudly rebuked my wife for 
not using the toilet for this purpose. (I was not at my seat at the 
time). I returned to find my wife most upset. When this miserable bitch 
passed by again, I told her in no uncertain terms that I did not 
appreciate her speaking to me wife in that manner and that we had no 
other options as there were no changing facilities available. This old 
cow ignored me, and walked off.  So much for Irish hospitality.  This 
old biddy should have entered the convent, as if the nuns would have 
her. That is the LAST time I fly Air Fungus.

P.S. The Irish have it in for Americans of Irish ancestry who return to
Ireland to visit, so be forwarned. This animosity has intensified since 
Michelle Smith managed to elude detection of whatever means she used to 
cheat in the Olympics and steal three gold medals, and the American 
media had the "cheek" to blow the whistle on her.
