AAHH...Dick,
I've told ya a MILLION times NOT to exxagerate so much......
I reckon you would have NOT been flying 'in the 50's'...except in your dreams....just like 'yours truly'.
I have NO 'ordinary' idea of wot 'they' did in the 50's, and I suspect, neither does yerself - March '44 would have been a 'good year' for you??
Perhaps we should all go back to MORSE? - T'would save a LOT of unnecessary chatter.........
AND....Yer 2 cents / litre on fuel was PRECISELY what funded that nasty ole FLIGHT SERVICE thingy....you know, the one you got rid of because you reckoned 'we' cost too much.
It was all about the MONEY..
It was ALWAYS about the MONEY!.
NOW you want a 2 cent levy on fuel to fund WHAT??
Tell 'im 'es dreamin'......
Cheeerrrsss.... and tks again for the...........
