Toff....I told you the other day that I was a northern boy, sadly unlike you I was not born with a plum in my mouth nor educated at a private school at Mummy and Daddies expense. I was educated at a secondary modern school, I was no super star but neither was I stupid. Living close to an airfield I grew up loving aviation and from the start I knew what I wanted to do. Through hard work at school then working every spare hour God sent I learnt to fly......over the next few years I built up my hours towing gliders and flying jump aircraft. Eventually my talents were spotted and I ended up flying in commercial aviation. Over the years I have been lucky to have the best office in the world with views to die for. I guess in your mind I am only a bus driver, but my bus is made by Gulfstream and it has nice leather seats. As they say, the sky really is the limit, it had provided me with a very good living and continues to do to this day.
As for my so called failing in CNA, I always saw it as a good buy but made the mistake of continually averaging down as prices fell but was happy with this as I was receiving handsome dividends and I knew, no infact I know my Β£250K will be back in profit one day.
OK, old bean, out to you now, what do you do once your paper round is finished in the mirnings?
