They also jabber on channel 16 a lot. Same same Malaysia. Came through
Malacca Harbour one night and have never heard so much talk. Even some
young lady that appeared to be advertising herself, albeit in vague
terms, Made me wonder what one could have done if there was an
emergency.

P.S. my spelling checker says "harbour" is a misspelled word :-)

Hi Bruce,
Try getting a civilised one, not a pigeon-English variety.

If God had intended Americans to speak like pigeons he would have
given them wings and given them crops to produce pigeon's milk for
their offspring instead of two breasts.

cheers
