Getting close to 2 hours since Dutch did his turn and Bold still hasn’t posted. Is he dead?

I literally tried posting the above right AFTER Bold posted the turn. There was no UK turn when I hit the post button.

[boldfresh]

i want to do a quick edit.

[boldfresh]

here are the edits - unrelated to UK combat and convoy dice as much as anything could be i believe.

one edit is USA - told dutch to put those dudes in suriname, didn’t see it until now.

two edits for UK. 
1. place 1 ftr in UK instead of z98
2. move 3 inf to scotland

let me know if you have any issues with these or proceed with italy.

cheers

would you like to scrambe and/or submerge in sz109?

[dutchmand]

Well, shoot.  We have a problem.  Bold wrote that he was placing a built ftr in England, but it is not there on the last map he posted.  There should be 2 ftrs there, one from Morocco and a built one. I see now that he did not edit it when he edited the rest….

Texted him, but he is busy with the wife, so will have to wait to see here… unfortunate.

[boldfresh]

Yes 2 ftrs in london.  3 ftrs in z98.  Go ahead and restart your move allweneed.

I apologize if it wasnt right on my map… I was posting it in a rush b4 dinner but u can see it in the text of the post.

[boldfresh]

Thank goodness you didnt make an assumption and roll with no scramble.  A strong support for why not to that I had never mentioned.  :-)

[boldfresh]

the fighter was the last change i made.  guess i didn’t save
it prior to posting.  again, i apologize for the inconvenience.  however, it was posted right there in a concise list with the map.

cheers
