    When I was in the hospital I had to resort to telling R-rated jokes to the nurses just to get an extra desert at dinner.   Hope you get well soon and not there long Dave.

    I'm very sorry to hear that you've taken a turn for the worse. Please be assured that my prayers and well wishes are with you. The most important thing for you now is to focus on getting better and resting. Think positively and look forward to getting this well and truly licked, once and for all.
     
    Take care.

    SETBACK Report:
    Had to shut down the shipyard temporarily.
    They suddenly decided to put me back in the hospital (UNC Chapel Hill).... Very aggressive IV's round the clock since Friday.
    MAN! This really sucks.
    MSW prayers welcome.

    Nice painting job Nenad.  Having really good eyes and a very tiny brush is always helpful.

    Thank you for the concern and comments Steve, Pat, George, Mark, Greg, Nils, Grant and Druxey .
     
     
    He had no need to be nervous. I knew the lantern was on the ship when I dropped it off to my daughter's van - it could only have come loose on the way back .
     
     
    It wasn't a case of forgetting the braces at the time I initially set the lantern in place - that was deliberate as I wanted it out of harms way while I fitted up the Ensign and Stern Lights. What I DID forget was to permanently glue the lantern to the crank when I'd done the rest     .
