Linn-

Thanks for reminding me to re-read Mary Stewart's Arthurian Trilogy. It should hold up well.

Then for the past five years I've been trying to work my way through Hamish Maclaren's THE PRIVATE OPINIONS OF A BRITISH BLUEJACKET and I've just resumed reading. I think I'm just beginning to decode it. It's written inlower deck naval dialect and phonetically spelled, with occasional puncuation.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
