You certainly *did not* tick me off. I was just explaining. Sorry if you perceived that I was angry. I just wanted to let you know that I had put in some effort myself before "asking for a handout". I could never get angry at anyone on this list - everyone has always been very helpful when I needed it. I may get frustrated, but at a situation, not at a person directly.
