 I met a yacht owner from BC when we were in Acapulco. When I told him I was from Torquay, he knew it well having skippered a D Fairmile based in Brixham in the War. I also met someone in Pa. whose parents lived in the same road in Torquay as my family. Small World?

I met a man here in the philippines who came from Lewes in Susex, 7 miles from where I was born and brought up. He had the same name as me too. He used to deliver fuel to my late fathers tug and also knew of my oldest Brother. yet we are not related in the slightest. (my dad couldnt afford a bike.

Galveston tomorrow -- don't need to go into Houston. I suggested that we qaulify as a cruise ship so we are booked in to berth at Terminal 1. The U.S. Army will bring secure transport to pick up our slippery cargo. Wells Fargo will send an armoured car with the bullion with which we are getting paid. Night before docking party on the pool deck --- we'll need the practice for the string of beach front bars in town there.

An electric buggering bronco? That sounds like an adventure too far. Imagine it's breath on your cheek.

Yes, all the Plasticos washed theirs after making them. Can't be too careful.

Here we go -- flashing lights, sirens, armed guards, men in black suits wearing sunglasses even though it's the middle of the night. AND that's just the pizza delivery.

Yes folks, I am back on board and have been watching all your goings on from afar. Seems like we only had a day in Jamaica and goodness knows why we are heading for Houston????? There are no pearly beaches and suntanned, good looking men there. Oh, sorry, am I sounding desperate? All I seem to have heard recently is about bars and red light districts.
I thought that I had signed onto a crew of gentleman, silly me.

Now in Galveston -- there are literally miles and miles of white sandy beach on the East side, bordering the Gulf of Mexico. Lots of lifeguard stations spaced out along the beach, so I'm sure you can find some well tanned hunk to satisfy your desparation. We'll keep an eye on you (for you personal safety's sake of course) from the bars across the beach front road.
