Ahoy Master's Mate Officer Spids
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
from the Captain and all the crew of the Great Ship "Incredulous"
Now that you a year older to do feel a lot wiser?
Are you starting to think in a shorter time frame Yet?
Ahoy Able sea-man Waddsie
I didn't know your high ranking was so important to you as it should be to any seaman worth his salt
Please try to navigate with up to date charts in the future and Don't be so casual
Always give the respect the sea deserves as she can be very cruel and always is
Ahoy Able Seaman Starboard Tacker
and Sea-Cadet Mykie
Now now chaps
Patience please
We were only out to sea for a matter of hours
Who said we were short term sailors anyway?
We are in it for the long haul and are hauling plenty of sail to prove it
Ouch! Ouch!
Too many for the Captain's liking but you cannot control the sea and weather conditions and
sometimes the decks just get swamped
The Captain knows It is difficult to remember
"it is always best to take a few star sightings to be safer" but please try?
Ahoy Officer Just as ice
Re GGL
Seems a lot of turnover and wind for no move?
It could be a tricky one? I wonder who's getting in and who is getting out
I wonder which one has the better seamanship skills?
Might have to wait for the Breakout or T/O to cool down and she if she can hold ground?
Ahoy Cadet-Officer Braveheart
I love you too!
I hope you didn't get too wet today
I played golf and missed all the stress and terror of another awful day at sea
I suppose it will hit me as soon as I give the ship a good once-over

Ahoy Captain, I hope you saved some golf balls this time!
I got slightly sea-sprayed today, not enough to warrant any attention though! 
I also couldn't hoist anything this morning, I've got all the ropes I'm able to handle in my tight little mitts at the moment. I'm still wondering why we're casually floating with Hlx, it sure is taking it's time. It's like it's forgotten how to do it... I guess I notice it more because it's never been in the green for me.

Ahoy Cadet-Officer Braveheart
Trust you to ask that tickly one re HLX
Congratulations!! and well done
I was saving the HLX as a sailing lesson and All-Out ocean trial to see if anyone onboard was awake
I am very proud of you!
As you know I have sailed her many times over decades
She is one of finest and fastest sails I ever experienced and yes it could be blind love which is a lesson in itself???
I have known her to skip >>>10 cent waves and have learnt to respect her designers
The Charts have always looked good since we hoisted and I have seen no downing signals since She could have busted through that piss week cold front many times but all I can say is maybe the designers and ship builders don't think they have enough good news yet to let lose
It would be interesting for all the crew to survey her charts and give their own interpretations and seaworthy report to us all
as "It could well be a matter of Blind Love on behalf of this very patient Captain?"
She was once in nickle and I am very disappointed she hasn't filled yet but maybe she's a tech now or a telecom ???
The Charts are what they are and they seem what they seem
Whatever she is she is volatile and the Captain still likes the chart and remembers her fondly and knows she can give very little warning
On a positive note!!
She has taken so long to fill we now have won enough prize money to hoist another to sail in tandem when she looks a lot better than she does right now!!
I love sailing with you Braveheart
You are a very very GOOD sailor and ample cook

Ahoy Captain, she's trying to become a Gold producer at present, having recently left palladium???
Nothing like a bit of diversification I suppose...!

Morning all
In response to the captains task.
HLX my view
Stochastics are all mid band with little insight
volumes have been low for the last 8 weeks giving little away there. RSI is mid band without direction.
MA are mixed with long term moving up and short term trending down
Trend line support at 22.5
Resistance at 25 and then at 27
Yesterday showed a Doji but ranges have been tight lately so that may not mean much.
To the naked eye it looks to be making lower lows on a weekly basis.
I'd love to hear other peoples views on pattens ,thoughts on its next possible move as I can't see much to suggest a move either way.
Kind regards
Stampy

yet another story in the 'this is a true story' vein.
True or not it's an interesting twist.
ON JULY 20, 1969, AS COMMANDER OF THE APOLLO 11 LUNAR MODULE, NEIL ARMSTRONG WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO SET FOOT ON THE MOON.
HIS FIRST WORDS AFTER STEPPING ON THE MOON, "THAT'S
ONE SMALL STEP FOR A MAN, ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND," WERE TELEVISED TO EARTH AND HEARD BY MILLIONS. BUT JUST BEFORE HE RE-ENTERED THE LANDER, HE MADE THE ENIGMATIC REMARK : "GOOD LUCK MR.GORSKY."
MANY PEOPLE AT NASA THOUGHT IT WAS A CASUAL REMARK CONCERNING SOME RIVAL SOVIET COSMONAUT. HOWEVER, UPON CHECKING, THERE WAS NO GORSKY IN EITHER THE RUSSIAN OR AMERICAN SPACE PROGRAMS.
OVER THE YEARS MANY PEOPLE QUESTIONED ARMSTRONG AS TO WHAT THE "GOOD LUCK, MR. GORSKY" STATEMENT MEANT, BUT ARMSTRONG ALWAYS
JUST SMILED.
ON JULY 5, 1995, IN TAMPA BAY, FLORIDA, WHILE
ANSWERING QUESTIONS FOLLOWING A SPEECH, A REPORTER BROUGHT UP THE 26-YEAR-OLD QUESTION TO ARMSTRONG. THIS TIME HE FINALLY RESPONDED. MR.GORSKY HAD DIED, SO NEIL ARMSTRONG FELT HE COULD ANSWER THE QUESTION.
IN 1938 WHEN HE WAS A KID IN A SMALL MIDWEST TOWN, HE WAS PLAYING BASEBALL WITH A FRIEND IN THE BACKYARD. HIS FRIEND HIT THE BALL, WHICH
LANDED IN HIS NEIGHBOUR'S YARD BY THE BEDROOM WINDOWS.
HIS NEIGHBOURS WERE MR. AND MS. GORSKY.
AS HE LEANED DOWN TO PICK UP THE BALL, YOUNG
ARMSTRONG HEARD MRS. GORSKY SHOUTING AT MR. GORSKY.
"ORAL SEX! YOU WANT ORAL SEX?! ? YOU'LL GET ORAL SEX
WHEN THE KID NEXT DOOR WALKS ON THE MOON!"
.
"The loss of the money didn't bother me. Whenever I have lost money in the stock market I have always considered that I have learned something; that if I have lost money I have gained experience, so that the money really went for a tuition fee. A man has to have experience and he has to pay for it." - Jesse Livermore

Wow Spid's is it true that Neil Armstrong really said "Good luck Mr Gorky" ??
I'm asking because I don't recall that being said but then at the time I was only 5-6, Gosh who would have thought!!

Ahoy great crew
We always know when we are in trouble-some waters
The 1st Officer Spids starts telling jokes to help steady our nerves Well done Spids!
The skipper goes off and plays golf
Senior Sea-Cadet Grannie writes words in rhyme and if we are lucky they are sometimes poetic
Well done sometimes Grannie!
Our ample cook tries and always tries again to do an apple pie????
Unfortunately for all the crew onboard the great ship 'Incredulous"
The pie always wins!!
Sorry Grannie but I'm a very hard marker when it comes to poetry and alln words stacked in a line

If the Good Captn has a moment he may want to cast a glare at BQT she has nearly overcome a nasty shooting star and MACDH is expanding on volume on a day where the barometer has fallen.
