    If you didnt bite them in half they went straight through, was like passing a picnic bar

    Hi Terry.
    Me and salt tablets never got on, as soon as I swallowed one, up it would come, I used to get a mug of salt water from the fire line and sip it.
    As for the silver paint down the fore-peak, that was the last job I did at 70 on the South Steyne in Darling Harbour, I had a backpacker with me, he wasn't a happy chappy.
