Hello Rodge G6XCJ ....mooo---bubbling about Europe somewhere
Please excuse if I cut or "snip" out my quoted text...
> YOU SAY YOU ARE ON SKYPE YET NO ADDRESS????
YES ... I am on Skype. You have already text messaged me
there, and I answered you. What address? My mailing
Address? Let me know.

Rodge ...If you wanted to setup your own BBS, you could
do so, and I think the only plague is keeping it all up
and going, and answering complaints, and this or that
not working....etc....the behind scenes of what a sysop
puts up with.
I have been offered help too in establishing a BBS on
Packet, and I might just do so, when things here stablize.
If I do so, and I too will need help <g>... then I will
also get you the same help. No problem.
Being a sysop, is way way diferent from being a user,
so I hope you are prepared for this venture.

NO never in the Black Watch, only my family living in
Scotland. I guess they liked them so much, they have
Black watches in their country.

> what?
A Ham Operator, is always on his own, either confined to
the dungeon for the time he wants to play radio, or
otherwise. It isn't a hobby that grabs the whole
family when one is the only one licenced and the rest
must pass this or that to enjoy. Once I emerge
from the rad-i-ooo whatever, I rejoin the family which
is my wife, and the pets and no... thankfully I am
not alone. As for pampering in bed, I usually
get up early and get some tea for my wife, and maybe
toast or muffin with some jam or butter, in bed so
she can watch some morning TV from BRASIL and kickoff
the day.
At that same time, I am usually out unloading the
dish washer.

Interesting, but when you mention seagoing, I suspect this
is those with their own boats, because those going on
cruises, and these ships are in International waters,
so they better have the OK from the captain.

Aaaaaah that Europe ...somewhere......and this means perhaps
a travel advice log of what to do and not to do....so many folks
on here enjoyed that Rodge. It was better info then the stuff
the travel agency posts ...well before the snow blows, we hope
also to get the Yellow Submarine out for it's last cruise
up north somewhere to just enjoy the colour.
See you later....whenever...somewhere in Europe, while we might
be somewhere in CANADA....from the Yellow Submarine...as I note
we do have a packet connect up there...as well some skype too.
