Back on the prowl!
Posted by tangerine-jack on Thursday, December 23, 2004 10:31 AM
I'm back in my buccaneer fortress with cannons by the score! None the worse for wear I might add. Anybody miss me? Still trying to settle back in, give me about a week to catch up on emails etc and I will be back cruising the shipping lanes for another payroll ship! HAHAHAHAHAAH...(evil laugh)[:-,]

I think my RR is still in the back yard, hmmm, maybe under this pine straw.......................................[oX)]

Good luck Jack, the blokes on this forum are a pack of bastards but I will answer you. You know you can rely on your mates from the other side of the world.


Hope it gets better ffor you but I noticed a few of the blokes saying recently that they didn't miss you a bit?

Thanks, Ian, I guess the important people noticed [:D]
Things are much nicer now that I am back in the States. I was away on a "training mission" in an "undisclosed location", but anybody with CNN or BBC could figure out when and where. Suffice it to say, we are making a positive difference in the world. That's all I'm allowed to say for now.

I did find my RR under the pine straw and leaves, and my triple redundant building techniques paid divedends once again. I blew off the leaves, put a loco on the track, hit it with some electricity, and presto! we are up and running! Took a few laps for the track to clean, but after a few minutes everything was running smooth. Now that winter is here in my part of the world, I will start work in earnest on my phase II expansion. I'll keep you posted on the progress.
