Anyone know what happened?

Plane makes second unplanned landing in three days
A British Airways plane travelling from Seattle to Heathrow has made its second unscheduled landing at Shannon Airport in three days.
The plane was forced to stop at the airport on the west coast of Ireland at 10:24 GMT on Sunday due to technical problems.
The same jet was diverted to Shannon on Friday night as it headed to Boston from London. ...
The flight did not declare an emergency and operations were reported to be normal at all times throughout the incident.

Just bad luck, or did someone miss something the first time?

Apparently today's diversion was due to an oil leak on number 2 engine. Don't know about Friday's diversion.
