He probably wouldn't make it past Australian immigration! |

I wasn't aware I'd gone away Amaral mon ami. Talking of France I'm off to the Somme in a few weeks for a couple of days. Doing a reconnaissance before organising a school trip. |

Do let us know what you think of it, it's on my "probable buy" list. |

One day I will travel to Europe and taunt all of you. |

Why would you wish to taunt us, Amaral? And incidentally, I'm about 100 miles off the coast of Brazil at present, so I might taunt you straight back! |

Sadly I'm only passing by amaral, on my way to Galveston to unload. But expecting to pick up the next cargo in Venezuela. |

What a shame. I would show you some nice collored pics of the French Paras uniforms used in Algeria. ;-) |
