Re: Emirates

Tbh .. edi is a shit tip .. why are we discussing it To be fair, I think it's to discuss valid given the airport this forum is dedicated too is constantly losing business to it. Clive told you to drop the chat, and yet it's the same ones that bring it up! But it needs to be brought up John, to a de...
