Reading*Recluse's comments from the The Gunroom group.

That's a good one.

Read yesterday:

"I do hope Diana don't savage Heneage on the way back," said Jack. "You might not think it, but he is a very sensitive cove, and he feels harsh words extremely. I remember when his father called him a vile concupiscent waste-thrift whore-monger he brooded over it a whole evening."

From The Yellow Admiral

I have done a few of the O'Brians on CD. John Lee is an awesome reader-alouder.

Greetings Captain Poppy!

I am presently reading The Yellow Admiral having thoroughly enjoyed the voyage thus far.

I am embarrassed to admit that when it comes to the real thing (as opposed to armchair sailoring)I am a hopeless lubber. My brother called me from Great Cranberry Island (while claiming to look out the window at his sailboat) and invited me yet again to visit. A queasy trip to Block Island several years ago has dampened my enthusiasm for real seafaring adventure. A hearty "HUZZAH" to P O'B who has yet to inspire me to cast up my accounts.
