Oh please give Simonstown a big HULLO from me!!! So many happy memories. Not least that a bottle of Cape Brandy cost the old 9 shillings (UK Money then) and if you took a sip at every station from there to Cape Town.....you were ready for a good night out at Delmonico's. I believe there were 24-25 stations between the two locations.....Dusty

The Cruel Sea is one of my all-time favourite books.

It also contains two of my favourite quotes:

1. Upon deciding the advertising business was not for him, the leading character leaves this parting shot for a campaign about toffee:

"Bolger's toffee: rich and dark like the Aga Khan"

2. An observation by a British officer after leave in USA:

"Americans aren't a great people, there's simply a lot of them"

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Before anyone gets offended, I point out I am Australian and we have a tradition of tweaking the tails of our friends....in fact, those we like are those we will stir the most!

Cheers all
