Last Friday Pat returned from a week at Candy’s - thanks to the help she received from BAA and RyanAir staff at Stansted and their willingness to bend the rules.

When she arrived at Security she asked an official if there was any point in trying to catch the plane. He immediately whisked her to the front of the queue.
