As expected
I have clearly failed to write in clear and lucid English. I never said that I was owed a living, I simply stated a fact which I thought would be intuitively obvious. I can't afford to work for nothing.
As to the admission of human fallibility, well I'm sorry I'm not super human.
What do want Bigdad? A grovelling apology for my having had the temerity to having begun my flying with the RAF? OK I'm really sorry, it won't happen again. I promise. Cross my heart and hope to die.
