Thanks to one and all for being witty, charming and fun during this year. I've needed it and you've provided it. I have enjoyed you all and I especially enjoyed bobbing around the Solent recently with Twister Ken, Parahandy, Humperdink and Chris Robb, the owner of the only double decker boat driven by a taxi engine and loaded with Frascati I've ever been on. It was smashing and good to put some faces to some of you. What a lot of charmers!
Now a non boaty question. Has anyone ever connected a Pace cable decoder, a DVD player recorder, a Tivo machine and a tv? I know, it's pathetic, but until today I thought I was an intelligent chap. Now I have revised that opinion. If any genius out there has managed it and would like to email me an idot's diagram I would be very grateful.

New from the Serious Burns Unit

But I've already paid my money... why should I sit outside Comet when....

chapman billies leave the street
And drouthy neebors, neebors meet
As market-days are wearing late
An' folk begin to tak the gate
While we sit bousing at the nappy
An' getting fou and unco happy

see, we can all do that lowland scots biz

Re: New from the Serious Burns Unit

.. just writing prompts on post-it notes so that Aunty Doris and Uncle Sid don't get the offsprings' latest beau confused with any previous and i thort you've missed the relevant following lines ....

We think na on the lang Scots miles,
The mosses, waters, slaps, and styles,
That lie between us and our hame,
Whare sits our sulky, sullen dame,
Gathering her brows like gathering storm,
Nursing her wrath to keep it warm.

Hey - I don't like Frascati - thats why I asked you so that I could get rid of it....

Much enjoyed all your company on the two decker. Must do it again

Happy Christmas and new year.
