Hello there.  I've not been into your thread for a long while but I see it's still going strong, as it should be.  Congratulations on that.  I don't know if any of you know Squiggle (we all meet up in the Freddie fanclub thread) but we had the sad news yesterday that her husband of nearly 50 years passed away yesterday.  Thought I'd just this in here in case any of you wanted to come into the Freddie thread to pass on your wishes.  I hope you don't mind me doing this but your thread is a "family" like our's and I thought some of you might want to know.  If not then I'm sorry for the invading the thread.  XXX

Splice the mainbrace is an order given aboard naval vessels to issue the crew with a drink. Originally an order for one of the most difficult emergency repair jobs aboard a ship it became a euphemism for authorized celebratory drinking afterward, and then the name of an order to grant the crew an extra ration of rum.



I'm liking the new meaning.

ROFL!!!!

The period my test is on is from the Age of Exploration to the Renaissance. As far as revision, I got to the East Asian world (that's the name of the module anyway). What makes it hard is that my teacher got bored within five minutes - FIVE MINUTES!!!! - of the lecture so he put his notes up on the internet. It means I have to read it to revise

Ducky please don't get bored while you teach ..........
