okay....so who is Barnacle Bill?!? hmmm? family...friend....?

As i dont remember asking for a S/Y inspection....exciting thoughts on the matter though, thanks!!!

Hey ya..... Glad to hear you have made a decision & your booked to go to singapore, it'll be worth while taking language lessons with Tracey to further your options, but hopefully u'll be able to relax & let your body re-engerize!!!. Im glad mummy & i came over too pattaya cos looking at your pics i feel i can appreciate the atmosphere & culture your surrounded in. Everything at home is great, Java's coat is looking v.nice thanks to long walks from mummy (no not me !!!). We've got a busy couple of weeks with parties, naughty nights away!!, My mum coming over & work ( i'm telling mummy my new business plans this weekend, i'm sure she'll tell you all about it ). Next time we chat remind me to fill you in on St Kitts, Anyway your probably asleep by now reading this long boring msg so take care, chat soon miss you Loves xxxxxxx

Nice to see the pics of a REAL boat once again - even if it is brand new "out of the box" by the looks of it...so thats even more reason to sand, varnish and polish !!

For those nautical folk reading the pic captions a slight interpretation will be needed....

Left = to Port, Right = to starboard, downstairs = below, upstairs = ondeck, bathroom= head (!), front = fore.

Otherwise 9 / 10 for presentation - tho' I'd would rather have some spreaders on the rig if it ever comes on to blow around those parts...

Well get back to polishing some brass - lass.

Bill.

Hey Elizabeth!!!!, just having my lunch (kellogs special K) so thought i'd just say hi. Alls well at home but thinking Java really is taking my mini me role to far - she hates going for walks, has a bad back, watches to much tv & loves a kiss & cuddle so as you can read just like me !!!!!. Im not if you have got to your emails i think mummy sent you some wedding dress designs for you to offer your opinion ? look forward to speaking soon take care keep positive & don't beat yourself up on your weight in your pics you look amazing (ashleys words) miss you loves xxxxxxxxx

Hi my lovely one - lovely to see your photos - especially lovely to see some of you. What happened to your red and black diving suit - you're all decked out in black and white? Given that you've been moaning about putting on weight, you look pretty damn good to me!! That's a very nice tan you'v got there! I have enjoyed seeing all the pics, it helps to be able to visualise you in your surroundings when you talk about watching DVD's and sanding etc. etc.

Hope you got our New Year's e-mail - we were all thinking of you and were with you mentally, if not physically. Let us know what you're up to now, ccf. Always lovely to hear from you We love you loads and miss you but it's nice to know we get to sit on your cabin wall - you sit on our dressing table so that's only fair! Loking forward to hearing from you again my beautiful Luv hugs & kisses xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey you,

Loved the photo album!!! Seeing the boat and such was pretty cool. I get to bleed my compressor daily too! Our boat is way more ghetto though. I miss Thailand and seeing all those photos made me sad. Expect a email soon!

Hello yes me again just looking to see if any one has left you msg. I think they have all gone away or there with you!!!!!!!!!!! love you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Elizabeth, your pics look great, im sorry to hear your not feeling any better. I think it'll be good if you can stay with pals onshore but that means resting not going out getting rat arsed !!!! Not sure on where to go this year for holiday/s i want to visit San Fran, Sweden, Italy & Ireland, Pete & Jennie are begging us to go over to Oz but thats unlikely this year. Just to please your mum im putting together another business proposal !!! if it comes off i'll buy a yacht & you can run it for me . Brookes home from Spain now very bored as grandma isnt here to fuss over her.... Take care plz we both worry about your health. loves me xxxx
