From Maryland? Who is a very very naughty boy! You are! Who loves Ya? Auntie Pucci? Guess who'll get seconds of the chocolate pud.

Schmeck Flyer has it in the bag and has outwitted all of you. It's a wind-up - the lot of it. Any Winner article reads pomp. condescension, arrogance, and a level of self importance and solipsism that beggars belief. It's a p**s take - he doesn't believe a word of what he writes and the more people react the more he loves it. In fact I am wondering if he does not start some of the threads here!

Darlings - he really is not like that. Come on! Which of you would have done those Click of the Mouse commercials - again - a huge p**s take of himself. He long ago learned to laugh at himself and had long traded on this Barrowboy makes Good image. I think that he actually quite liked his F lunch ( he used to fly CW so I'm wondering if he or someone else paid. I was taken in for years and it was Him Indoors who put me wise and then I read and heard him talking about things truly dear to his hear like the Foundation for policemen killed in thel ine of duty. So - take everything that he says with a gallon of salt and join in the fun - take the p**s out him, he adores it. I can imagine him laughing his socks off and I would have loved to read him taking some of our more self centred bretheren on other Boards apart (excuse the spilt infinitive). Unlike most of you, I have flown with him and he is OK - does not miss a trick. He is 100% Brit eccentric, God Bless Him.

Now - Schreck-Rollette - how dare you say that mine was a mock complaint! I have had a very irish accent on the mobile grovelling to be forgiven and I am about to have more miles put into HI's Account than my hair brush has bristles. I am about to become a Miles Millionairess. There! Now DYKWIA!!
