Chinese Vic,
Oh Dear, you have got it bad old boy!
I am delighted to say that I too was a 'hairy' before I chose aircrew many years ago. It is NOT offensice, derisory or anything else remotely 'not nice' I regarded it affectionately as term of enderement, of which I was quite proud.
I regret you have taken offence but you realy need to lighten up - if that is all you have to worry about in your life, then you are doing OK I would suggest.
KInd regards to ALL past and present hairies - where we would be without you?
The Swinging Monkey
Caruthers, send Vic a bottle of Grouse and a portion of fried rice!
