I am not sure what is going on but we or I may have an IT problem. At the time ML is posting aleenamishal's post has not arrived according to the stamp. Also when clicking ML's "refer to button" it takes one to a different post. Perhaps urgent tech is called for before widerspread corruption occurs.

Thanks Malcolm. Better safe than sorry. David V
(Mods can bin that conversation as far as I'm concerned).

One has rather made a fool of oneself.
Neither the first or last time to do so. |

Like Mr. Halley's astronomical.
Rare, (but justly target for the singers comical)

Only you and me Albie, the gang must have gone to Arya National Shipping Lines.

I bailed out in December 1980 as the future was gradually turning against Brits, going to Arya would have been the suicide option.

A bit of a take on an old song "It'll be lonely this Christmas if no one replies,"
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to any Kuwait Cowboys who are still in the saddle. |

I wasn't a Cowboy, I was a Commando.
I know big burly men from the SAS who would baulk at going down a Russian engineroom, brave lads but there is a limit. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all in Kintyre and be assured we are also suffering from snow, ice and the bloody freezing fog. |

Commando? No wonder you are suffering hypothermally. I am on the lookout for a quilted boiler suit - and that's with knickers on.

Regret to advise Peter [ aka Spot the Dog ] passed away 3rd April. Another Albatross in the sky.

I never met Peter but my condolences to his family.
The honest truth is that all my BOT Acquaintances and myself are in the zone and years of Tennants and Bhandari's Curry is no help. But I wouldn't swap it for the world. |

Hi Alan. I often wondered about that. Was he still building model aircraft ? I never could figure how he got them home unless he flew them! All the best Bob

Afternoon Bob Sorry late comment the machine has been in DD. Peter was not doing any thing like that when I sailed with him July 85 to Jan 86. Arther Morgan relievd Peter and when Peter got home it was to the push I lasted until Sept 87. God knows how !!!

Hi guys, Has anyone received correspondence from Phoenix Life? Is this subject to Income Tax?
Cheers, E S. |

Thanks Alan, good to know they're not just picking on me. Sort of makes up for all the hardship.

Was at my parents house yesterday and managed to poke the phone in through the cupboard door of my old bedroom - and there it was! Unfortunately for Health & Safety reasons that is as near as I can get for the foreseeable future. I always took it to sea with me, but never wore it once - if I had ever made it to 3E, I am sure I would have worn it for standby's on the manoeuvring platform - just like in the movies. As it was, my nephews wore it more than I ever did when they were kids. But it is still there in case I ever get the call to go back |
