When I posted a quick reply it did not show up. I refreshed the page at approx. 7am , no success but lo and behold it appears at 8.17. A temporary glitch?

[billyboy]

grateful thanks to our technicians. I am back on site again.
I'll just nip and have a look around the ship to see whats happening.

[billyboy]

Hmmm everything seems to be in order. Ecdis says we ar4e making 23 knots towards the gulf of Mexico. ETA in three days.
Nothing exciting on the Radars. Iron Mike holding her steady on course for Haiti. Dont think we have been there before.

Haiti ? Don’t they have regular ‘problems’ natural and man made?
Many years since my major incident and medical trauma training, I suppose it will all came back to me, probably just a bit out of date.

Is it worth asking if we`ve got the speed to get through the Dominican Republic to get to Haiti ?
I mean, I know the sharp end is pointy, but wouldn`t it be wiser to follow an icebreaker ? (Not a double rum & coke.)

A land beset by problems none of which will be lightened by our arrival. We must, as diplomatically as possible, make our excuses and hightail it out of the Caribbean.
Brazil?

[billyboy]

Brazil, That where they make ladies under garments?
OK so, fuel and stores then we head out for Bra zil.
