Hi gang, sailing from Fremantle for 16 days, 5 ports of call in Indonesia on Sunday. We are actually going to Makassar (Macassar) where the famous oil for "gentlemen's hairdressing" came from and why women invented the anti-macassar for the backs of chairs. It's in the Sulawesi Islands. Also Komodo Island, the home of the massive dragons (I can remember David A going there many years ago)
Keep well and safe and happy wombating.

Have a great time Tina, love that background about Macassar.

Bon voyage Tina and enjoy. And re the info about Macassar... as somebody once said in a Cockney accent.... "Not many people know that". Including me!

Have a super time.

Look out I'm back!! Wonderful holiday. Great ship, food, shows, friends old and new. Packed so much in came home "stuffed"...to some cold and wet weather. We stopped over the sight of the sinking of H.M.A.S Sydney, lost with all lives, a beautiful service. Will write in our military section. I hope you have all been behaving yourselves?? Yeah right...
Just got to get this extra 2 kilos off next...
TTFN

Two kilos? You must have had a really enjoyable trip! Welcome back.

Good to see you back our Teen, sounds like you had a great time, will look forward to reading about the service.

Thank you both for your welcome and would you believe I never ate any cakes of desserts, fair dinkum..
