    Thats enough...

    Hello...

    I have decided to change my mind here - because I can...

    You are a fool who walked into an office of a shady boat-builder with no backing (say a solicitor or lawyer, or your smart wife - or even that voice in the back of your head) and you walked out the same door with no contract - which is a legal document with lots of third party statements referring to the guys in the blue shirts - and several signatures at the bottom of the last page...

    How the hell did they convince you to leave behind documents that could be copied with no paper work...

    In short - you blew it - sorry...

    You will hate me - I am about to get blasted by the locals - but when the fat settles from the cream - you blew it...

    I retract my sympathies - but I will play you against 20's on any snooker table we can find in Mexico - guns at the bar... :)

    Don't do it again...

    BLAM! BLAM BLAM! Sorry...but it is his fault...barely. I'd always ask the wife/significant other/dog/librarian/lawyer friend/mother etc. ALWAYS READ THE DOCUMENT and only sign with an atty. present, but they (the builder) should have at least been civil and given you royalties and notification. I'd still sue..

    Mack...

    Hello...

    Oh sure - sue - but just learn from the mistake - don't be a trusting romantic who believes everyone wants to go to sea...

    The buck makes the F'cks...

    Cheers...

    Model aeroplanes painted GREY...

    Hello...

    Up here - a litigious is a great thing to split down the belly and extract the lung mucus from for use in model aeroplane building which we usually paint grEy... :)

    Then we play Scottish pipes outdoors and eat salt Cod while shooting photos with Brownie cameras... :)

    Cheers...
