Re: cappy
What a great pleasure to be seeing you back here Cappy my dear soulmate. My attention here has been soundly booted and recovery is in the hands (and skills) of men and women whom i hold in highest esteem. I accept my long life and the good fortune in my 63 (so far) years so far with dearest Margaret who at a healthy five months my senior, our son and daughter and their children - and their children; great mates - of all genders, past and present. I also have had the great fortune to happen to live under this young country's welfare umbrella that is giving us the best twilight years we hope for.
And to you and yours every good wish.
Richard.

Re: cappy
Cappy, welcome home, but that ship you still have on your Avatar could do with going in for a good scrub up, have heard the worms have been at the timber while you were away.
And just where have you been, it has been a long voyage, did you bring some duty free back for the crew of this ship to sample?
No matter, just report to the skipper and hope you get a VG . for this one
Happy daze John in Oz.

Cappy, There was a time i would fly up them masts with a kit of Red Lead, These days a couple of Deck heads around the house and i have to have a good sit down. But i am married to one who would not only give your decks a coat of paint she would also iron them sails, She bloody terrifies me. Big woman mate
