    Another great AAR from you, Rob.

    It’s good to see someone still sailing.

    I hope to get a fight going, but I’ve mostly been working on my Spanish lately.

    Thanks Jonas.
    I'm trying to bet a game a week going, but keep coming up against real life!

    Top notch post and battle Rob. I wish there were more books about the HEIC around. I would love to read a series depicting life aboard one of their warships. They must have been very busy days.

    I scored all three of those books Rob recommended this morning in Kindle format. $2.99 each AUD! Cheap and I mean really cheap.

    Glad to hear I have been of service Gary.
    I usually get all my novels on Kindle nowadays, and reserve hard copy for Non-fiction. That saves me having to build even more bookcases.

    Back in the Indian Ocean, lots of adventures to look forward to.

    I know you are posting 1 picture and text at a time because of the site problems but I like the format. It's a bit like turning the page of a book, reading one post, turn page read next post and so on.

    A close fight and a well written one as well.
    Cheers

    Cheers John.
    It is a bit of a fag doing each one and then having to cut the duplicate picture, but much better than having repeats of every picture.
    Glad you like the format.

    A close fight there, Rob, but success for the HEIC.

    Thank you for all the rep Paul.
    Glad you are enjoying the AAR's. It is quite a while since I stopped doing the HEIC ones, so I thought I would resurrect them for a while with a few of the Offices moved up a notch or two in the meantime.
