He actually does part of the liturgy in Slavonic; the choir is small, but said to be quite good. They do the blessing of the baskets, and then the contents are shared. Sounds like just the place. Ciao. J

I am slipping. I can't believe I left a New Page hanging out there like that.

Hope all had a great weekend.

My Saturday consisted of digging up and removing three tree stumps for my wife. Yesterday wasn't so bad, but today, I am paying for it... Good thing for Tylenol!

I guess dynamite is a little hard to come by these days.

Pretty much. I'm getting semi-regular loss of circulation and feeling in my right hand, it's worse in the cold and the South Atlantic in July is not too warm. So rather than risk actually doing some serious damage (my concern) or leaving the MoD open to a lawsuit (their concern) I'm not going.



Well played, sir!


Why thank you old boy. However, if one were to choose a reason to not go it would probably be rather less annoying than losing the feeling in my (favourite) hand

Not hard to come by if you know the right people, but they were only feet from the house.

Where can we go to get details of the 'unfortunate battle of New Caledonia'? Didja get a drubbin'?

Did he just have a regiment on PM, per your recon?

Took three days to capture the base using 7th Australian Division and 40th US Infantry Division plus artillery. 6th Australian Div plus I Aus Corps are inbound, and once I clear the hex completely I'll be flying in aviation support and engineers.

As for New Caledonia, that was a long time ago. I reported on it here; cost me five divisions and all my US CVs.

How about a nice, slightly used M-113 APC. Check your local National Guard dealership.

Glad your okay.

Not a bad idea! I hear 'Ahnold' got himself a tank. I'll shoot him a message & contact his dealer

Sounds like quite a ride...

Not one you would want to repeat unless you were into stunts.

Glad everyone is OK. Vehicles are replaceable!
