LOL…..<br />SaltyDog mentioned a possibility of sailing on the 29th of January. What say yee to that Skipper????<br />Again, I hope you’re not having any major problems with Mhadie. <br />Take care of yourself and my prayers are with you.<br /><br />For WorkerBev/Rainbow1946:<br />Plagiarize away young lady, but I hope you don’t take it anywhere for a long, long time, I go first. Sorry to read that you had so much trouble with the hackers, but I’m glad that you’ve got it straightened out. <br />Good work on the Anonymous situation, things have settled down on that.<br />And the crude one. ET<br />Begin Again in 2010! Amen to that.<br /><br />Take care Dilip, and come back to us.<br />Your in my prayers.<br />Michael(75)from Kingwood, WV (USA)hezakiah299https://www.blogger.com/profile/13831171696178539958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670929240268214947.post-61597488672528058172010-01-21T11:39:54.772+05:302010-01-21T11:39:54.772+05:30great goin........

Did you get over all the pomp when you arrived? It is kinda fun to be recognized like that though, isn't it?<br /><br />May I have your permission to address the blog family members?<br />Well...<br /><br />Hi guys, Jay, Richie, Michael - this is "workerbev" now also known as "rainbow1946" as about a week ago my yahoo acct got "hacked" and "linked" so I've had to open another. But, lo and behold, I've outsmarted the hackers and have my yahoo account back. Boy, was I stressed. I enjoy e-books and have purchased many in the past and they are in a folder in my yahoo acct. I thought for sure that was money down the drain as I hadn't read some of them. Now I can stop stressing.<br /><br />Jay - I'm right there with you on the comments from ET Gurl. What a loser! I have commented on him/her "it" before but apparently it has no brain, or no common sense, or no sense of dignity whatsoever. Now I just ignore them, don't even read them, so if it wants attention, this is the last it will get from me. Also see my comments under "Rainbow1946" regarding the comments from all the "Anonymous'". What disrespect.<br /><br />Richie & Michael, you guys are just tops! You are always here for Cdr Donde and Jessica also, with such kind words and funny comments. You both make me laugh so much. I still can't get over you Michael, when you told Mary, Maine, that she made you laugh til you were simple! I absolutely think I'll take that one to the grave with me if you don't mind me plagarizing. Okay?<br /><br />As for you dear Cdr Donde, don't you think you could slip into the Mhadei for a quick update and let us at least know you are okay and what day you are leaving Port Stanley. I'm sure we will all be on-line that day to give you a great, merry, send off. Hope your land legs don't last too long on the yacht, could be a funny video if you would care to share. <br /><br />Happiness is sailing...<br />Begin Again in 2010!<br /><br />Keeping you in my prayers and remember God is right next to you every step you take. {{{HUGS}}}<br />Beverly & Andrew Penney, Tasmania<br /><br />ha, verification word is slypjamm.<br />Don't jam the slip on your way out Cdr.workerbev and/or rainbow1946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670929240268214947.post-90669966585464327062010-01-20T22:41:58.364+05:302010-01-20T22:41:58.364+05:30as sir robin said, cape horn is a bastard of a pla...as sir robin said, cape horn is a bastard of a place and you have crossed it...<br /><br />im proud of you and mhadei. <br /><br />waiting for u to come back... will welcome you im mumbai with some good homemade laddoos.Gaurav Shindehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08054405021254053594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670929240268214947.post-14864407549655154812010-01-20T22:34:04.805+05:302010-01-20T22:34:04.805+05:30Way to go, Cdr Dilip!!!

I imagine you're extremely busy working on Mhadie, which definitely comes first. <br />Please ignore all the negative remarks since those people do not speak for all of us. Some people haven't learned about patience yet. If they are not satisfied with your procedure then they should look elsewhere.

While the weather is still fairly decent in that area, I hope you can get away pretty soon. <br />I was wondering if it would be a good idea to carry some extra bolts with you for your trouble areas, or do you have it figured out. I also wondered about having the correct sized bolt for that particular bolt hole. I just hope you get it figured out so that your trip is a lot more enjoyable. Good Luck!!<br /><br />RichieParis: I read that article that you wrote, numerous times, and could not figure it out, I went back in a little later and it was very plain and simple. Go figure!!! Sorry about that?!?!?!?<br />Maybe there’s something wrong between the ears, I’ve done this before, but at my age I’m allowed. Ha, ha, LOL……….<br />Jan, Auckland NZ: Thank you for the kind words, and likewise to you. I think it’s nice to let these people know that they are not going unnoticed nor unappreciated. After all, for a lot of people, (like myself) this is entertainment. Fresh air no less. LOL…..<br />Yes Jan, if we all got together for a ‘to do’ there would be a lot of different flags flying.<br />Sorry Dilip, for using your blog for a sounding board. <br />I think I would check them bolt holes for unusual wear.<br />Your in my prayers.<br />Michael(75)from Kingwood, WV (USA)hezakiah299https://www.blogger.com/profile/13831171696178539958noreply@blogger.com
