    Which is, of course, such a good description of me!

          Quite possibly!

          I'm wondering how easy it would be to resurrect the greeting 'Ahoy there!' After all we do have a couple of Yacht clubs here in my town.

            Is 'Ahoy there' the new 'Hello Sailor'?

              Not to worry, it’ll soon be Februdairy.
              I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

              I am not a number, I am a free man.

                  That sounds as unhealthy as Febrewery.

                    It might be dangerous for me if I use the greeting 'Hello Sailor'; especially at football matches and boxing tournaments.

                      I keep hitting the Escape key, but I'm still here!

                        It's strange that we never hear people speak of Janruary, even though many say Febuary - I suppose it's possible they spell it that way.

                              I didn't know francophone Australian judges were allowed to sit in British courts.

                                Wrong time of year; wrong Fred.

                                (I knew somebody would ask that! )
