    And to come to think of it, I just spent two years on a postgrad study in Aussilandia, and never checked up on you.

    Eh Bergalia...

    Long time no smell :D
    You were lost a sea ?
    Shame man, I bet you will invest in a compass for next time ;)

    Nice to know you haven't lost it, tackling the next boat as soon as you put foot to shore. Just remember to take the screws out :D

    You can get a refund for the screws if you take them out -
    There, no screws left :D

    Boat design.net is like your old PUB, sooner or later people come back for another drink in their favorite chair.

    Idyllwild, California is a mountaintop community on the other side of the mountains west of Palm Springs. Years ago, there was a saloon/bar/tavern/pub (pick your favorite term for a community drinking hole) in the center of town. It fell victim to tourist-oriented redevelopment long ago, but should be remembered and honored for this reason: patrons could buy their own bar stools.

    The stools were comfortable affairs more like chairs, with backs and arm rests. And if you handed management the money, they'd order one that had a a brass plaque attached with your name on it. When you weren't around it was general seating, but you had the right to show up at any time and boot a tourist or weekender out of it.

    There were more than a few conversations over the years along the lines of,
    "excuse me; I believe you're sitting in my chair."
    -Oh, really. Does it have your name on it?"
    "Yep, matter of fact it does. Right there.....":D
