Growltigga,
1st) dumbluck, Yes, thanks for a fast reply
2nd) doscuff, please remind Mister Tigga that the Red Coats won the battle of * Breeds Hill *, (It just cost them dearly)
I am saving a famous quote for an appropriate time
3rd) The end of January sounds good for me for the same reasons
4th) Challenge hereby accepted. Not only am I hard enough, but I am good enough as well, (a pun you will understand some day)
5th) As for my happy sacks, You and what armada?
5th) < broad grin > Hmm, in the USA, we derogatorily refer to Lawyers as * Sharks *. I will be using one of the easier to see ship sets.
6th) Correct, you don't have what it takes to abuse me, (maybe when you are older)
Moderators: Please allow for friendly banter between me and my young but honorable opponent.
7th) I should point out that the *check is in the mail *

I wish I could meet you in Arizona. I have photos of the area around Tucson at my website. www.windingstream.com
I put my gameing history in * How Old Are You Thread *
More later

Paraphrasing the response

2nd - remember Pearl Harbour, the Alamo etc etc - about time you uppity yanks got a taste of good old british steel - there are no French to help you this time

4th - teddy bears at dawn I feel

5th - the armada that will be woppin' (is that how is it said?) you in the game

5th - dont worry, I wouldn't dream of taking advantage of your dodgy eyesight

6th - you ain't seen nothing yet

7th - telegraphic transfer of funds only - account details to follow - please note all bills are to be settled in full within 15 days of request

Arizona will be work and a wedding - apparently Arizona lasses think English chaps are a much better catch than the locals - natural selection really

Excuse, no New World based partisanship please.

This bout should be quite a laugh, to paraphrase our esteemed wartime leader 'Never in the field of wargaming have so many daft mistakes and stupid moves been made by such a right couple of plonkers

2nd) The Battle of Bunker Hill was fought on Breeds Hill,
The Battle of New Orleans comes to mind, Something about the War of 1812. Hmm, Jonny Horton had quite a song about it. Would you like the lyrics? Shall I quote Kipling and his poem about the Zulus broke the British Square?
4th) Goodenough is my Last name, and that is the way it is pronounced.
5th) Please send in the fleet, we will use the scrap metal to build a memorial to your vanished race.
* correcting my typo *
6th) I challenge you to choose a ship set that will be difficult to see. I have never used my vision as an excuse, and I would not want to deprive you of an advantage. For things to work correctly it will have to be one of the default sets.
BTW: These dodgy eyes took all but one of the photos at my web site.

8th) True, I have not seen anything yet from you. Nor do I expect to. Though the hot air has been good for a chuckle and a wry grin or two.

7th) You will have to accept telepathic payment

You quote Darwin? I would say you are right. You have to come here to find someone of quality,
