    You should have gone in, because I could have sunk the TTs and scrambling to prevent the Bombard, mY have damaged a Battkeship, which I might have sunk with my counter arrack.

    I suppose a good rule is to always avoid any lazy shortcuts. :-)

    Happy to do it all again and scramble your fighters instead. Just say the word.

    You are a gentleman. Don’t worry. Am annoyed at myself that I did not block, like I did last turn. I rush your goes most of the time.
    Am finding it hard to play, as Al wants more help with Raf. Both of them are under the weather today.
    Enjoy your evening.

  • Mod 2026 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12

    You need some little ray of hope. Perhaps, I have inadvertently given you half a chance!

    I also feel for Dukla. He keeps having to play the oldies at 42 and he is crying out for soe. 1914 action. I would play.

    I looked at whether you could block again when I did the US on the previous turn and did not think you could. Perhaps I was wrong.

    Now all I need is the other half a chance and I’ll be happy. See what you can do, there’s a good chap! :wink:

    British Gas. I swapped tariffs and was offered £50 in amazon vouchers. That was over a month ago, so I rang to ask where they were. Was on the phone when doing my go.

    Well done BG I say. Raffy on your lap. Utility companies misbehaving. What other distractions can I arrange?
