Looks like Wilbur is leading old Bruce about by the nose.

Poor Bruce in Bangkok. It looks like he hates old Wilbur so much that he's
pre-occupied and stalking. Even forging Wilbur's e-mail address.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha! He's even more of an embarrassment than the mental
picture of a senile old fart stuck at a Bangkok dock for the remaining few
years of his dotage. It's very sad when has-beens refuse to admit reality.

He even claims to have kill-filled old Wilbur but how can he when he is
forging Wilbur's headers? He couldn't read his own posts if he had filters
set up. Bwaaaaaaaaahahhahahahahaha. What a loser! No credibility. Boy, can I
ever call them the minute I read them.

I'm that good!

Hi Vic,

That may have been what I needed when I wasted my time on that.
Or maybe I was wishing I was in Australia where my son got married
to an Aussie girl on Sunday.

Hi Vic,

Well, it appears that several airlines are pushing to be allowed to
fly the lucrative Australia - USA route which is monopolised by a few
at present such as Qantas and United, thus an expensive trip.

If you can get a cheap AA or Hawaiian Airlines flight to Hawaii and if
you keep looking at Jetstar, the budget branch of Qantas, you should
be able to pick up a cheap flight to Sydney. Apart from wishing to
break a 14.5 hour direct flight from San Francisico to Sydney, that's
the reason I always stop over in Honolulu now. Even if I have to spend
a night in a hotel, I still save hundreds.

Whereabouts where they married - Sydney?

cheers

One daughter lives in Honolulu, and flew in from there.
His mother and another daughter flew Chicago/SF/Sydney.
Too bad I didn't know what you know. The two in Chicago could have
easily arranged to stay overnight with the one in Hawaii, and I would
have told them before they arranged their tickets. C'est la vie.
I don't fly, and found the ship passage too lengthy to do now.
Later, perhaps. The newlyweds will be here for a visit in October.

Whereabouts where they married - Sydney?

St. Charles Borromeo, cur Victoria Road & Charles Street, Ryde.
Of course I don't know what that means.

Hi Vic,

Ryde is a suburb of standard brick homes in the inner west of Sydney
city, mostly built pre-war and just after. A quite nice area. Victoria
Road is a main artery leading into the city. Of course I don't know
the church but there are millions of them in Sydney, mostly Roman
Catholic, Church of England (Episcopalian) and United (Methodist and
Presbytarian combined). They all seem to look the same when they are
built in Sydney's ubiquitous (may not be in your American dictionary)
red brick.

You should visit Australia some time. You don't have to learn to fly.
The aeroplanes do that for you these days. As for shipping, they
don't use windjammers any more so the trip is quite fast. I once met
an older American couple on a Polish freighter in the Port of
Tauranga, New Zealand. They were the only passengers and enjoyed the
cruise on a cargo ship. They had tried it several times. Sounded like
a great way to see the world if you don't have your own yacht.

cheers
Peter

We stayed in the Ryde, Best Western for a couple of nights on our OZ trip
last year..
typical Metropolitan suburb northwest of town.

You can get there on the River Cat

I was impressed with their transit system: buses, ferries, jetcats, electric
trains, underground, all linked together and you can get an "All in One"
daily pass
