starbright. Your erudite post has made me see the error of my ways. I feel I must now apologise to everyone in a growbag who shares my misfortune in being myopic - as my views obviously are.
Imagine me sharing the same medical condition and not having access within the system to something you had access to? We have dental for all - why not optical services? We all need them the same - we're all equally useless without them. I'm not anti Aircrew - I've enjoyed the company of 3 or 4 of them in my time. I'm anti someone mumping because a small, select service has changed and they think mumping on here will change the price of fish. It doesn't. Get into the 'system' and change it or expect non-special people to throw stones when you mump on a public forum.
Now put your specs on and MTFU.
