capnwilliam Posted January 25, 2004 Posted January 25, 2004 OK, Hawkyns, you'll be there, as will Lady Elaina. Jan and I decided to make that event "our St. Augustine event" for this year. That makes four; any other Pirates going? Capt. William "The fight's not over while there's a shot in the locker!"

capnwilliam Posted January 26, 2004 Posted January 26, 2004 Aye, Redvipers: but is Capt. Graybeard (Mark Tingen) still active? We were supposed to hook up with him went we went there in 2002; but when I called his number I got a disconnect notice! I sent him an e-message later, but never got a response; and I notice that his name's not been mentioned on this list since then. Capt. William "The fight's not over while there's a shot in the locker!"
