    Believe the rig is going in next (Southern Hem.) summer. Lets hope our Rockhopper and Desire shares go through the roof.

    Shipmate, had a banyan on the small beach at Mare Harbour once and went for a dip in the oggin, I've never felt cold like that in my life. Enjoy Rio, it's a lot better than dog **** city, presumably as the ship is tits it's a 42, (you need wolf to do the Gulf). Have a good trip

    It's not allowed to mention penguins on here

    I mentioned one once but I think I got away with it.

    they found oil , poor quality though

    enacol the drilling company are getting a bigger rig in to drill further down!!

    Fish stocks are running out so the local governemnt put the license price up , hence fewer fishing companies are now buying them!
