Hope you didn't have to fight off to many ancient beast and you didn't have too much trouble with the sails, it can be a bit choppy in the Atlantic.

I speak in two ways:
(i) At enormous speed, with excessive detail and frequent meanderings
(ii) Staccato, with missing key nouns and other important signposts as to what on earth I mean.

My latest irritating habit is to make on of those duty calls to a member of the family whilst opening my e-mail! The other day I was discovered - I was OK until I hit a comment in AWAD and dissolved into hysterical laughter!
