It appears again that I have erred. I very rarely read the title to the threads as I read all threads for content, starting from the last place I finished at. I find that quite often a thread starts on one topic and vears to another quite nicely.

For instance as I was writing this I was thinking about the problems of putting AR onto video. We now have more than enough talent and equipment at the individual level to put small vignetttes of AR's stuff on film using our children as actors. I am not sure if it would breach copyright, but the swimmming scene in SA on the first day would be great. This paragraph then gives me an opportunity to launch into the third thought I had in the morning about titles.

I have always considered that the title "Coots in the North" does not fit nicely with the AR genre. He typically used two word titles, I agree that Coots probably would have been in the title but not the direction.

So finally I suppose I could have taken the time to make three threads. Or you could do as my mother always said - if you do not like a story or author do not read that stuff. As Robert says the minutia of boats bores him to tears. That is fine, spending an hour working out how to fit two pieces of timber together is fun, asking TARBOARD how to do it is funner (to use my youngest daughters expression).

As Roger says "Where's the chocolate?" just before he disappears into the bracken bored with the search.
