Again evil Ryan air tried to charge me for my luggage even though it fit. Really unethical behaviour. Just horrible! #airlinefail #malta #complaint @Ryanair @MaltaAirport
Ryanair are being unreasonable with their baggage policy. I nearly had to pay even though my tag had the exact cms matching their policy. They were complaining because the soft case bag popped a cm out from their metal case. Fine when pressed. #airlinefail @Maltairport @Ryanair

🩸 World Blood Donor Day! 🩸
Scientists discovered a bacterial enzyme that could turn any blood type into a universal donor type! The enzyme removes antigens from red blood cells, creating universal donor blood.
This could revolutionise blood donation !🏩
