With a flux that sent harmonics cascading through Ahab's sensitive
comunications equipment, the battleship Alexander crashed out of the
foldspace manifold and into the usual three dimensions. Within seconds, all
of Ahab's weaponary was trained on the most vital parts of the intruder and
several extremely cross pirates had fingers hovering above large red
buttons. However this was not an attack but merely an old friend returning...

The hailing frequencies beeped, lights flashed and gobbledygook translators
did their stuff, eventually a picture formed on teh forward viewy screens of
that mad Welshishish Captain, James T Quirk...

"Ahab me mate!,sorry about that base debacle, who knew the bricktorians were
a nuclear power? Anyway I heard you was planning a party in the smoking
ruins of Melboring and I persuaded She Who Rules to let me join in."

"Anyway, I'm here to remind you of a suggestion I made a little while ago
about using our homebase for a training mission, around ANZAC day, remember?"

The upshot is are we playing at Easter/Gosford and leave the diggers in
peace or are people keen to make that a shop/swap/chinwag sort of dealy and
to have the brikwars (which not everyone is keen on I know) on a different
day ie. ANZAC day at my home/college?

James (who's a mad keen Welshishish captain...)
