Paddy’s Plane Misunderstanding!
Paddy O’Reilly arrived at the airport carrying the kind of energy that instantly exhausts some people and entertains everyone else. From the moment he stumbled through the automatic doors dragging an overstuffed suitcase with one broken wheel squealing behind him, he seemed less like a passenger preparing for an international flight and more like a man accidentally wandering into a situation several steps beyond his understanding. The check-in staff noticed him immediately. Not because he…
