Waiting

Stuck in the Wilshire Plaza reception, waiting for the guys to come back from getting the vehicles. Different reports come back via cell phones. As we wait Merv tells stories about shark attacks in Australia.

The waiting has been delayed as the boys have had to sit through a video of how to clean the toilet and various other necessities needed for the running of the battle wagon, the El Monte Camper Van that will now be known as HMS Hwyl (Ship of Fun). Delayed also by the Tom Tom installation that when completed just happened to be in the Dutch language. So here we wait listening to Merv giving us names of ships that he knows.

'I used to be on HMS Eagle - it was so long ago it was an egg!
