I thought that wasn't due til Valentines Day?

Terribly sorry! I got waylaid by themost delightful Native girl... but never mind that, here's the lamps and a crate of kippers.

Sorry I missed the fireside chat... tut, tut... but there's always tonight!

Kippers! Lovely.
Got any jam?

... for the scones?
You did bring scones, right?

The coffee is about ready. Tea for the guests.

I loves da tea, gimmie some tea and ya'lls good!

Don't want to spoil the mood, but...

FYI: Over at AudioGalaxy, Michael (owner) has threatened that all accounts will be unverified unless users help test an updated version of the satellite (file-trading software that got him in hot water with the R|AA).

They aint gettin no cherries on this board. We've seen this before.
Storyline aint bad either.

the expedition seems rather....sparse at this stage.... were the directions really bad, or is travel perlious?.....

bad maps and perilous travel, and moderated first posts, tough trip so far lads but if you are patient perhaps this safari may get up and running yet i will send word back one more time, my rations are getting low before we have even begun...

big crew in chat, sir john....do pop in and have a .....pop, whay hey?

jolly good

by day 5 we should have things good and proper

PIP PIP get to work spags

Well, not a bad idea.
But just trying to sort the men from the boys - kippers and jam is proper explorer food.
Better even than pemmican - except it doesn't last as long...
That's why they have to source some long pig.

Flint.... Shoot. Not another AG invasion.
I'm barely over the last one.
