I appreciate the evocative analogy and especially like the use of "fothering" but surely the time for patchwork similies is over as we list ever closer to the seething reef of VA and it is time to pull the ship ashore for a refit!?..

In the absence of a "clear answer" about what the "real questions" are, I am all at sea without a bearing on where the home port lies..

It would appear that the current board is dithering from the safety of their salaried lifeboats while the ship continues to slip below the plimsoll line, sharks circle and the reef looms large on the not very distant horizon..

Surely it is time to hoist the jib at least and navigate a course towards Oak (Sandalwood) Island where future plantation investors, oil sales and treasure awaits..

I can understand why some now consider FW to be the Blackbeard of the Kimberley after trial in the kangaroo court of this forum but it is hard to mount a case in your own defence when you have been gagged, bound and locked in the hold with the first mate and botswain now at the helm..

The most recent explanations that have been proferred by FW and co sound plausible and they are calling for all hands on deck to right the ship and a good old walk the plank for the mutineers..

Given FW knows these waters better than anyone surely it makes sense to have him as navigator in these troubled times and allow someone perhaps more skilled in financial management as captain..

Whatever the case it is imperative that action happens (oil and wood sales, plantation investments, swabbing the decks etc) sooner than later so I am not sure what it is exactly you are waiting for?.

Are ye with me yer lilylivered hearties!..

None of this is my opinion and all details should be construed as fact..

A ship in the dry dock is safe but that is not what ships are made for!.. And there are termites at the hull...
