Kingy,
Didn't mean to upset you!
There should be a smiley for 'tongue in cheek' I think.
I'm 27, yes, I do have a house (of sorts), no wife, but Girlfriend.
If you earn less than me, I'd be surprised (and worried!)
My cc balance isn't quite as bad as yours, but me loans are Waaay more than that, and all I've got to show for it is a Crappy Reliant Scimitar and Dolomite Sprint - neither of which I can afford to MoT at the moment and therefore have to cycle to work.
You're right about the jealousy thing though!
But the truth is, I couldn't even stretch to flying a radio controlled 'plane right now!
I actually admire you for being so committed to aviation and in some ways wish I'd gone for it before 'other stuff' pushed its way to the front of the queue...
I do get a bit of flying and gliding in on the cheap through my involvement with the ATC (Air Training Corps, not the
other ATC), but not nearly enough to satisfy my appetite for it!
Thank you for the offer of a flight, maybe next time you're over this neck of the woods you could get in touch - and those who know me will testify that my offer of a beer still holds good!
Cheers and thanks and er.. sorry.. ta.. er, I'll get me coat then.
