I think think this is the first time I've read a whole forum post with a smile on my face, I think I must be getting old or that extra 'thing' in my head is making me care a little about GRF

Having been on the receiving end of GRFs ramblings on more occasions than I care to remember I have never felt the need to fuel his anger, but that last post was brilliant. Furthermore every word is true, and I should know 'cos I was in the boat with him. The upside of course is that he now knows, first hand, that the Merlin PY is not that generous after all

Now we need to introduce Grf to an ultra-modern Merlin with the just-pull-a-rope and grab the sheet spiro pole launcher, kicker and controls led back to helm and, of course, one string raking!
But I grinned too - good marks for descriptive narrative, we could all imagine ourselves there. |
