While no one can step into Bruce's shoes, I have been asked by Jim and Darren to administer the MSW campaigns. I prefer that members police themselves, but will do what I can to make sure the place doesn't take on too much water or founder.

Fear not, Michael, I was an editor on Armorama for 2 years and am used to grief, haha!

Seriously, I hope to let the inmates run the asylum and not intervene more than needed.

It's a good excuse to start on one of my RoG 1/72 scale subs.

Please, please......... We're boat people. People who appreciate the majesty of tall ships and queens of the oceans.

Not like those AFV riff-raff he used to be associated with

Ah Michael as much as we have the majesty of tail ships and the queens of the oceans we also have those that ply their trade under the Jolly Roger.

I am in a state of confusion Bill;
Do I congratulate you? No
Do I say well done? No
Should I say good luck? No

Should I feel sorry for you? Yes

Thank you, all, I'm not anticipating trouble (but I have my "cat" in the bag and believe the Limeys had it right with their custom of flogging).

We'll have a lot of fun.
