    Unhappy Sad state of my fleet!

    Twenty years of laying up in ordinary has taken a toll on my small collection of ships! Not to mention a cat disaster!

    Alas, your fleet currently resembled the dastardly French blockaded in Brest - the Emperor demands an immediate refit!!!!

    Keith!

    If memory serves me right, it last used in 1984 and that was in Dayton! They defeated a equal fleet off the Virginia Capes!

    Arrrggghh I feel it, my poor fleet is in similar dissrepair, almost prison hulk status, but a new sqn on the horizon from the ship builders Skytrex with new masts will hopefully bring the fleet up to "ship shape and Bristol fashion "

    You should know that over here in England, John, we now have an Eu directive that only allows us to teach our Parrots to say "Pieces of ten". since we went decimal.

    I'm sorry Rob that in England perhaps you stumbled also your "feet" into a "wooden ruler in metres" :cool:

    (I'm really happy that we are under the same roof also with some little difference of opinion)
