So Paddy and Mick are on a plane, when an announcement comes over the intercom:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have lost power to one of our four engines, so our arrival will be delayed by approximately one hour."

Shortly afterwards, another announcement:

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have just lost power to another engine, so the arrival will be delayed by another two hours."

Shortly after that:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the third engine has also gone, so expect to be delayed by a further three hours."

Paddy turns to Mick and says, "Ah, fer ****'s sake. If we lose that fourth engine we'll be up here all bloody night!"
