Hmmm, war's d'colonel gone t'anyway? Should be here wit the rest of us characters! Silkie strides over to Tempest and Sterling. Ifin ya nil mind I'd like t'join ya fer da floor show. She pulls out a chair, gracefully lowers herself to sit and then produces the familure silver flask of pocheen. She takes a biig gulp and offers it to the others. Thank ye... allow me Ladies to cover the next round.

"Aye lad," the old steward said. "Ye will be happy to be knowing the Captain is awake. Still a bit worn and worse fer wear he be, but awake and talkin none the less." Symms stepped aside to allow Reiley to enter then followed in after him. Sterling, propped up amongst thread bare pillows, the best the inn had to offer, was forced to turn most of his head to see the gentleman who entered his room. "Go to his other side, " the steward whispered to Reiley. "So's he can see ye better." "Symms?" Sterling asks, wishing to know the identity of the stranger. He looked and sounded exhausted, and yet the high colour of the fever he had been fighting at the beginning of the last evening seemed to have tempered. Still... "This be Doctor Reiley, Dr. Easterly's assistant," the steward explained. "The young gentleman I were telling ye about." Sterling's eyes narrowed as he studied the man Symms had just presented to him. "Dr. Easterly's assistant?" Sterling asked. "Do ye know him sir?" Symms asked as he began to arrange the table for the morning meal. Sterling continued to stare hard at Reiley. Where had he seen this man before? Finally he shook his head, remembering the steward's question. "Nay, I have not had the pleasure of making Dr. Easterly's acquaintance." For a moment, the concerned look vanished from the captain's features and his expression seemed to brighten. "Now I remember ye! You were here... with Mr. Hazzards when... after he had been able to retrieve Mistress McKinney's letter. So then," he said, the drawn look returning to reclaim him. He lifted his bandaged arm. "I have thee to thank for this?"

Je serais le plus reconnaissant... vous remercie

willing submission

"Mais bien sûr.. " Sterling says taking a seat at Tempest's side. "I would be honoured to join ye and sit back and enjoy this rather clever fellow. Just don't tell him I think so.... "

Go shoe the goose....

Great temptation

Sterling looks over at Tempest... "Methinks I would not wish to be offending ye Lady, for I know, all too well how independent the lasses of this pub can be, but my sword is at yer disposal if ye be requirin assistance with this German swine."

Very nice Tempest, very nice indeed!

Cheeky Actress just sent me a copy in the post.... lots of fun, especially for the young ones in the crew. There is also the book Pirates by John Matthews... same layout but different info in most cases... both are a fine treat for the eyes...
