congrats @Alex

Scientists might have found a ringworld orbiting a star 1500 light years away.

OK, it's only a hypothesis, but it's far more interesting than a trail of comets being bumped into orbit around the star by a passing stellar object.

So does @Giles or @Haraki-san hold the rights to sell Iron Heart to extra-terrestrials?

And congratulations to @Alex too. Try not to set off any unexploded ordnance whilst you're down there!

And in other ground-breaking news, it's theorised that the Dutch and Belgians won independence from the Spanish because of beer!

Swinnen suggested that the Low Countries (Holland and Belgium) won their independence from the Spanish because of beer. They financed their armies from beer tax, while the Spanish relied on tax on silver. The beer won.

The last sentence could be @Seul's motto.

[Alex]

Thank you, guys.

Might make that me signature… BEER WON!..

@Giles:

BOOM.

Proud Dad announcement.

The diving company that @Alex is now part owner of, has won the contract to provide dive 24x7 dive support to the dredging that needs to be undertaken for the arrival of our new 65,000 tonne aircraft carriers…..

Given that Portsmouth dockyards was a major target in WWII, that is likely to mean a shit load of unexploded ordinance to be identified and removed

Now all we need is some planes to put on the feckers..... 

That's good news Giles, nice contract. I know the've been working on that one for a long while.

[Giles]

Boom - literally…..

We've bust the loom that makes the UHR (21/23oz) denim.

We are not sure if it can be fixed.  We'll find out in a week or two.

If it can't, then the UHR jeans we left, will be the last.....

On the basis that it was me who urged us to remake the 21/23, I guess I'm persona non grata atm.....

[BloodnThunder]

So….  You're saying anyone that has ever considered a UHR purchase should pull the trigger ASAP?

[Giles]

If you want to guarantee getting one, yes.  I hope, really hope that the loom can be fixed, but we just don't know…..

When someone gives you unidentified shots and tells you to "finish strong", your night is not going to end well.

I think I might have just figured out what I want to be when I grow up….

[Giles]

Thank you so much @Jett129 (still not broken that wax…...)....

[Jett129]

Planning on going to a BBQ restaurant,in Paris,called the Beast. They are supposed to have the best bourbon selection in all of Europe. I highly doubt they have that. When I hadn't heard from you,I thought maybe you didn't like it. Saw the Iron Heart bike at Rivet and Hyde(very cool),and met Jr. and Jake. We head home on Wed.–Jett

I'm saving it up for super special…...
