Moby's is in Ganges, on the other side of the island. If you are
going to Moby's have a beer and a Lamburgini ( a great burger made
with lamb and chutney) for me. I will not be out until May.

If you have not been to Chemanius lately, they have a great little
city marina with a very friendly wharfinger.

Strangely, not one of mine. Might I suggest just going across to Chemainus?
The marina has been excellent for a couple of years, run by a most friendly and
competent wharfinger, Harlan Bootsma. The town has plenty of facilities and
good natured people.
Wherever you go, it's hard not to find a place to enjoy in that area. Best wishes,
Chuck<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: Is Vesuvius open in the winter? |

I thought his name was Harmen Bootsma.
Regardless - he wins my vote as best wharfinger. Shall we have a
poll?

Aren't you one of those who thinks Janet Jackson's tit is ugly? Yet
you think Maria Shriver is good looking? My God, she looks
frightening! All shriveled up, almost zombie like. And, hey, if you
are making all of that money from investments, how come you're working

Indeed, was about to say the same. 'till I noticed the crossposting...
Lloyd: If you want to do without the stupid answers, don't crosspost to rec.boats,
a group very well known for the hard time they have stayin' on topic. (It could be
more appropriately named rec.boat.obnoctious!) rec.boats.cruising may be a better
choice for intelligent replies if you have to crosspost. Most of the people there
are the same except for the frustrated ones and those in need of a real life.
It would be sad if this NG becomes as wasted as rec.boats. Especially by the same
whom pollute rec.boats now.
