Fuff - thanks for the good wishes. No scotch, unfortunately, only some cooking-grade madeira. Any port in a storm, tho'.

Wod - And a happy New Year to you, too. Was the Avalon really hit hard by that storm?

eternally curious - thanks, and a happy hogmanay to you and your crew. BTW, Google Image Search (term: silent films).
