Our domain name registration to get the classy address "www.arthur-ransome.org/index.html" is taking an unseemly long time, sorry to all concerened. We hope to have something underway next month [yeah yeah that's what I always say I know, but we really are trying]

I won't be tarboarding for a week or two, happy Christmas to all those who do that sort of thing: here's a New Zealand Christmas poem by the late Dorothy Ballentyne QSO, a real AR fan and a leading authority on Childrens Lit in New Zealand

[1st verse full of snow and stuff]
...I carol Baby Jesus on a Nor'west day
A summer breeze is blowing across the beach and bay
Seagulls are wheeling where the children run to swim
Laughter in the breakers is their Christmas hymn

so as I set sail on a cool summer evening breeze in my trusty boat SINBAD, I'll be thinking of you all, huddled around the fire sipping mulled wine....

Happy Winter Holiday

Peter
