The "Coral Star" appears to be somewhere off Norwich, so it would seem she has found her way home. Dartskipper, raise a glass with me to the Chief Steward and John from Paignton. Number 5 has always been my lucky number.

(Personally, I wouldn't drink special brew when perfectly good Brasso can be found).
Strong black coffee with a double rum in it was another favourite, back in the day. I always found Brasso a bit rough around the edges, but it did have a lovely smooth finish.
