Well said Torres and duplicates my feelings exactly.
I only spent 37 years there as you know, been away for five years apart from the odd night passing through to reunions or Aoteroa once a year. Hmmmn must go back again this year for a quick visit, see if Wycho is still standing under the 'cone of silence', find out who is running the Yottie and have another go at winning 'the joker', drink a few SP's and tell a few lies. Great fun. Where is my foredeck hand, Chuckles?
