[St Anna]

Gooday sneade.
Thanks for the advice. Is your real name Audrey. Jeez how mean were your parents.

With respect to the time I will need, my starter motor is playing up - I may have to sail out of the sling and across to the pen. Yeah - as if.

Here in Oz, we are tough and measure distances in slabs of beer, not girly 6 packs. However,I think all my neighbours will be drinking to calm their nerves when I motor past (near) them.

Thanks Smacker, great to hear from you. Hope the smacktets and Frau SMack are all treating you kindly.

Sneadey, you will suffer the wrath of the gods if you sail without someone to tell you what you should do. Everything will go wrong. Its huge bad luck, only fixable by a topless (female) crew. This is your challenge ....

The boat was called St. Anna because the original owner was a doctor and in the soloman islands, he used to run beachside clinics. His wifes name was Anna and she was the nurse. When the boat came into view, to anchor off a village, the locals would run down and call Saint Anna ( after the wife, not the poor doctor who did the physician/surgeon stuff) Therefore they renamed the boat St. Anna.

On the radio, everyone used to mistake me for santana - which of course is easy to do - I cant sing either.

Would I be too stupid to ask for suggestions for a new callsign (name for sneade)
