And while we're on the subject of charitable efforts involving airlines, today's appeal by a guest celebrity on Radio 4 comes on behalf of bored pilots everywhere:
Good morning. As you lie in bed, are you aware that at this very moment nearly five million passengers are in the air enroute somewhere entirely unnecessary, and that they have to be flown there by someone? Well that 'someone' has to deal on a daily basis with a six-figure salary and being sat around pools in the sunshine surrounded by half-naked young women.
Worse than that they must endure hours of boredom in the cruise, now newspapers have largely been withdrawn, with only a warming Earth to look at out the window.
But you can help and you can help now by recommending this blog to someone dear to you that has to work as an airline pilot. Nowadays due to the wonders of modern technology pilots are able to download blogs and podcasts to the company-supplied take-off performance tablet ~ along with Pornhub stills ~ to study during the cruise without ever anyone needing to know.
As you may know, we at the blog do what we do for our simple love for humanity, and that even includes you. We never advertise, and what we achieve for Blogger and the billionaires who own it is achieved wholly by word of mouth.
So act now if you would, in remembering those more fortunate than ourselves. Just email a link to those in need, and send me a cheque no matter how large or small... remembering to mark it "I saw you coming" on the back of the envelope.
Today's appeal was delivered by a top influencer and his dog, Gromit. And following the news it's over to the Church of Latter-Day Bloggers in Cockermouth, where the very Reverend Percy Adcock leads the daily worship.
