What do you mean Baz has come and gone again???!!!! I only popped behind that bush for a minute!!!! What are you doing Black Widow . . . . oh yes, that's a good idea. Make sure you remember wher you are buring them. Who's that bedraggled woman over there? Joanne? Joanne who? What was she on the Cruise, passenger or crew? I'll go and bring her over here, looks like she's had a bad time, wonder what happened to her? No I wonder why Lindy, Fat Cook didn't want the Glucose, I thought it was good for you. Better bury it too.

Baz, Hi, how are you, boy am I glad to see you, I cant remember very much about what happened, do I really look that bad, I dont suppose appearances matter very much any more but I do feel like a damn good hot soak, i stink. I have learnt a valuable lesson over the last few weeks and that is to live for today as you never know whats round the corner, I am so glad to be alive (even if I do look and smell like something that has died!)

Black Widow - Its been so long since I have made any clothes by hand (dont suppose theres a Dotty P out here though) Does any one need measuring up!!!! My hands are a bit chilly but they wont take long to warm up. Its a good job i have a spare needle (always keep one in the elastic of your draws, never know when you might need one) Lady M

Made it at last, beacon OK, ready with my small fire,and time to eat my dinner. That Fat Lady is some cook. Eat this and wash it down with some coconut milk. Settle down on this made up chair, and start scanning the horizon. Gonna be a long 2 hours before Dave gets here. It would be nice if I could listen to Essex Radio now.

Hi Black Widow I need a shirt making please took it off to wave at the aero plane, wind blew it out of my hand and there was that much smoke i lost it, and i need to protect my bronzed, muscular well honed body from this hot sun, hope you've got a tape measure. I'm on watch at 10-00pm who's taking over from me at Midnight, i'm on my way to your tree now, David

Hi Dave, Glad you made it, was just dropping off. I`m not sure, but I think, only think that I saw a smoke cloud from a passing ship. On the other hand, it could have been a cloud on the horizon. In this light, it`s hard to make out.Anyway, bed for now, I`m shagged. Nite now.

Hello everybody (Guests just gone!!) I have finished my shift, and I think David, bronzed, honed, muscular Guardsman is taking over from me. What's that? missed Baz again??????? Joanne, no wonder I didn't recognise you as Lady M!!! But you look better now!! What have you been sewing? Any chance of a Sarong for me? Then you could all call me Dorothy G Lamour!!!
