Just posted another pic on the Yahoo page (see link above), this is one of Cobble's, of the travelling musicians sailing the Pride of Rotterdam : have a look!
Note : the space for typing in names in the caption box is limited. This is the only reason for Eric the Viking being described as Eric TV, honestly, despite the sex-change rumours....)

Andreas, so sorry to hear of your bad experiences. I can't imagine anyone considering attacking you, for many reasons! Don't let it put you off the rest of humanity, please. We'll raise a glass (or two) to you at the Yorkshire Gathering.
