    It must be frustrating but Rick was a good man who was out in all weathers rain or shine making sure that us liveaboards especially cc’ers always had what they needed. Going slow for a couple of miles is a very small price to pay. He had certain places to be at certain times. Much missed. Top bloke RIP mr Cooper.

    The trouble with curry is you have to dilute the "hotness" with lots of Lager. I suppose hence the hangover 😎😎😎😎

    Whenever I get stuck in traffic I pull over and go scuba diving. It helps that I live in Hawaii. Sometimes it's just better to pull over and let everyone else go.

      Wow that sure is an incredible way to beat the traffic jam blues Mark. You're right, when I was driving I'd often find that after a 5 minute stop, the traffic had completely changed. Like stepping out of time for a short while.

    Hello Kevin.....Have been playing catch up by returning to season 1 and binge watching until your current season. Something that you said in the previous episode really resonates with me...."IT" is truly destroying the fabric of our society. People are being ruined physically, emotionally, and fiscally. I truly worry about my children and grandchildren....Keep on keeping on...

      Gooday to you. My entire knowledge of Alaska comes from the Alistair McLean novel "Athabasca" and it's tar sands. Yes, geography has never been my strong suit. 🤭
