Seems I'm here to early........ Tiz ok, I shall return. In the meantime, it's over the yard arm somewhere, so Hi Ray! How's it going in shaky city? What's the yard arm? An old sailing expression Deb, back when all ships were sailing ships, the sailors weren't allowed to break out the rum, till the sun was over the yard arm. This was around midday apparently. I maybe old, but I'm not old enough to remember the details first hand! |

Now for another question: what's a yard arm? |

Not entirely certain Deb, I think it was a spar used for telling time & used in conjuction with a sextant, to guess where the ship was. Prolly before morse code & GPS

Hello Jayne, seems Vivian has gone all shy on us, so the answer is ,(a) not for the squeamish, &(b), potatos for 2 nights, & on the third night, the potatos are fitted up with detonators. This offers the pigs instant dental work & survivors have a major migraine problem. It's all quite simple really, provided the tree huggers don't get to hear of it. |

I read a few pages back that you met a woman! Do you have a date? When is it? To quote Jayne: Inquiring minds want to know! |

Not a lot of laughs for the pigs Tim, but they weren't invited to the booze-up after either. They were there of course, sort of "guests of honour". Itrust the day has treated you all kindly (must be Friday night!)

You two are cracking me up!!!! How's the move going, Jayne? I can't wait til I move. It's going to be tons of work but worth it! But there's no vacancy where I want to move yet. |

Now for another question: what's a yard arm? Yard arms are part of the rigging on a square rigged sailing ship, masts, spars, yards, yard arms. So when the sun was over the yard arms it was either getting toward noon or toward sunset. |
