Windows 2007


I'm working on tidying up the mess caused by builders who have no respect for gardens...should look a lot better by the end of tomorrow...can't get a really nice photo until they remove the scaffolding...but the windows make it look more like a finished house....inside, the plasterers are doing their stuff...
...Doc says Lea and Michael are doing fine....and on target for delivery of the package on 5th September...ironically the day my 'labour' begins...my PSA is stable at 0.1

Safe and Sound...or is it 'Home and dry'?


This is the last photo taken of the legendary Skipper, as he prepares to relinquish command of the 'Goldstone'. There is clear evidence of stress and emotion around the eyes, the untied shoelaces tell the same tale...
The photograph was taken on Tuesday 15th at 11:30 by Tristan Forward; friends for over 50 years, and shipmates for a number of them...there were many shared adventures on the High Seas, and much involvement with emeralds, silks, privateers and corsairs...and dusky maidens too...naturally.
