Well said M2N.

Interesting comment from MPN:
My sensation here is that the negativity is about the Clubs.
Who also said this:
...the ground floor RAFA element seems largely to be ex-National Service enjoying free beer.
Clearly not the type of people he wishes to mix with.

I'm more than happy to contribute to the RAFBF, as I do to other charities but I'm not a 'clubby' sort of bloke, good for those who are and do a worthwhile job as well.
Well said goudie, expands on the thoughts I posted.
