Sorry bones, I've only just fully read your post. As usual I fell asleep during
the second paragraph. I need you to be aware that my uniform is now so
uncomfortable that it is becoming depressingly difficult to fly these days. My
doctor is becoming very concerned about my welfare - he keeps insisting that I
need to breathe at least every minute.
Please contact your Chinese suppliers and tell them that, these days, JHB
pilots really do need XXL suits (that's UK/Canada XXL which is equivalent to
Chinese XXXXXL). I know that Mr Lucas is still skinny but just wait until he
has been retired for a few more years...
