The pin as you can see has Little Ships name on it So it wont go missing and will be displayed and possibly deployed on anyone having unauthorised access to the drinks cabinet.

Bernie, Thanks for the gift it is very much appreciated and all I can say is there is a little varnishing that I would like you to look at for me.

Right you scurvy lot, lets see you hit the drinks cabinet again!

The First Navy Jack was the first official flag for the US Navy. It hadn't been flown for years until 9/11. The US Navy is now flying it again until the war on terror is won. Officially it's is only to be flown from the jack staff while in port.

But hey, I'm not in the Navy anymore and I fly mine from the spreaders. opposite the Red Duster. I think that might be some kind of conflict. The flag was made after we politely asked our British sponsors to go home for more tea.

"Don't Tread on Me" means "p#ss-off, there's a new sheriff in town" or something close to it.

My history gets a little fuzzy.

Thanks for the explanation Bernie.

We are still a British colony, although Britain would rather play with their new friends in Europe these days ;)
They had a referendum on the matter a few years ago (Oz), and most still preferred to recognise the Monarchy.

Nice work with Toms' weapon of select destruction, I'm sure he'll put it to good use :)

This masterpiece will be on show on Little Ship in the near future and in order that the crowds will keep moving through the cabin no refreshments will be served on this occasion.

I'm sure that this deterrent will not be required to subdue the following but be aware of the dangers of mishandling this equipment.

For those who require a private viewing, the normal cost will apply..... preferably new world red.

:p

Have you got the risk assessment written up yet Tom and will it be prominently displayed?

I would rather play with our antipodean friends - and with Canadia - than with our slippery and duplicitous neighbours.

I read that Kevin Rudd's lot are having a spot of bother with their poll rating.
