Any time I've been published, and I show them the mags, they just push them aside and change the subject.
You see I have no formal qualifications, and obviously one cannot achieve anything without them.
This is the first time in 8 years that they've asked if they can look through my scope.
It's going to be an interesting evening, one I would much rather be spending with you guys.
What a sad and sorry lot if they can't be happy for your well-deserved successes
