Happy birthday fella. Enjoy the lessons. Have you flown before ? It's a great buzz. My brother has a PPL so we hire out a little Cesna a few times each year and go on a little jolly. It's great fun.

We've two dogs, a Golden Doodle and a Tibetan Terrier.
They're both complete scroungers but the Tibetan likes to eat ****. A lot.
She also likes to lick the inside of my nose which is very disconcerting.

I used to fly loads as a kid with my uncle. Gliders, Tug's, all kinds of ****. Loved it.

My Uncle is known in the pilot circuit as 'Mad Clive'. After leaving the 615 squadron years ago he became a private pilot. Worked with Eddie Irvine doing the Grand Prix tour for years and years and then became Francis Ford Capella's pilot, now he's some banker in Poland's pilot.

He was one of the pilots in The English Patient, and has his own IMDB page.

Tight as arseholes though, and I haven't seen him in over 10 years. ****er <rofl>

Is Eddie Irvine as arrogant as I am lead to believe ?
