If there are it'll be worth ordering now. It's gonna take the boatyard's Transit van seven years to get there and another seven to get back.

That's one heck of a lot of Yorkie bars for the driver!

I see one of the current photos is of a black cat on Titan - wonder if it was me while I was having one of my daily astral travel dreams?
