Capt. Sterling

okay running over this quickly... most of the illustrations were cut aways, so in actuality the kettle would be bricked in on all sides? Would the kettle be removable or permanent?

The embroidery down the front... what was it? Just scrolls or more fish like the pockets... very Posh.

once you get the hang of it, you'd be surprised how quickly prick stitching can be done... I'm addicted to it!!!

Wow Greg! Very nice indeed!!!!!!!!! When you feel up to it, let's see pictures of it on... How many hours do you think it took actually, not counting buttonholes? Hope the ankle is feeling a bit better. Hector

Here! Here! You tried your best, unfortunately the dealer hasn't been honest with you and that is certainly NOT your fault. I agree with Blackjohn that we owe you thanks for trying so hard to make this all work... Hector

Yer just sayin that Lill, because I cannot afford ye.

Thank ye gracious Lady!

Thank you Hugh, most kind of you and the wee ones be ever so grateful for the drinks.

Yes they have a new book out too all about the ride and the movies. They will be adding Jack, Bill Turner, and several of the other movie characters to the rides as audioanimatronic characters... which should really be interesting... their most famous ride... shame Walt didn't live long enough to see it... Also, according to one of the fellows on the cruise ship The Wonder, a replica Black Pearl and another one of the ships will be anchoring at Castaway Cay, their private island for the cruise ships.... for the kids to play on... All I can say is watch out kids... make way for me too! Hector

Bowing low, "Thank you ever so much Lady B. You are most kind. And yes, a very profitable trade indeed, especially when they finally decide to use the hair brush!"

Nice work! :)

Hey congratulations! Keep up the good work!

Thank you! This is truly high praise coming from all of you! I came to the pub to learn from folks like you and I have been, so between Kass's patterns and tips and all YOUR hard work and references, things are really starting to come to pass! Here's to all of us! Thanks again! Hector

Brilliant!!!

Dang.... now I gotta shave me armpits.....? LMAO!!!!! Hector

The bloody fish tank bubbling....

Oh I just read something regarding this as well... need to go back and see what book it was in... give me a night or two... but I've pretty much been in Restoration London by Picard or 1700s by Maureen Waller... Waller being the better of the two.... one of them mentions women fighters.... Hector
