Hmm so why do you constantly refer to it?

I think that you haven't experienced the simple pleasure of sitting on
the
bow with your feet just above the water.
Bwaaaahahahahahahhahahaaaaaa!
Donal, I've lived on the waterfront or no more than two blocks from it
all my life.
I've biult canoes from old corrugated iron filling the holes and seams
with tar scabbed from the roadside on hot summer days. Fished with a
Eucalypt branch and a piece of string, played at Ozzie Tom Sawyer all
my teen years and then some, rowed hundreds of miles in a clinker
built rowing skiff, built sailed and won in my own dinghys, scows and
yachts from 8 years old (yes, I built a Manly Junior dinghy at 8 with
help from my grandfather, a master builder and carpenter of renown
here in Oz)..... Donal, you can only wish you'd had your feet in the
water as much as I.

Hey Mooon! How am I doing?


Regards

Donal
