    Are you sure your Cod wasn’t a Red Herring. JS.

    hi cappy #63
    good afternoon,
    the cape cod mystery was posted by myself just before i turned my computer off, as i had to go into town,
    and i thought it may be a bit risque even for you so i wiped it and left the building as the saying goes,
    but here is another fine ditty to take its place.
    There was a man from cape cod
    who thought babies where fashoned by god
    but twas not the almighty
    who hiked up her nightie
    twas cappy the lodger by god.

    Hi J. P.,
    Your description of the working of the Aldis Lamp brought back memories as I had to use that thing a few times in my career!

    I remember sailing with a second mate once who had an obsession that he had to know the identity of every ship far and near that he could see. If he couldn't make out the name on the bows or astern, he would then resort to the Light! At least he didn't annoy the R/O and ask him to call an unknown ship!

    Anyway, most ships replied but on one occasion a big ship on the horizon ignored him. Our man persisted and eventually the ship did respond but not in the way that was expected. Every light on board fore and aft was switched on. It was the ss Rotterdam, flagship of the Holland/Afrika Line!

    Happy days!
