Bargain indeed; but don't interrupt me - I am rummaging through the garage for some old taps to fit to the bits of wood I have just polished, then to print off the guarantee certifcates; must remember to leave them blank

Wow that is one big iceberg! I always thought the actual berg was about 1/10th that size at best.

Hey Dambrosi, nice postcard collection. Now do you have anything of "Real" value, "tongue firmly in cheek" of any "Big Red Boat" stuff?

According to witnesses, the iceberg towered about 100 feet above the waterline, higher than the wheelhouse, nearly as high as the funnel tops. So this berg is indeed a bit larger than that seen by survivors who were on deck at the time.

Hey Dambrosi!

Have you ever thought that maybe instead of selling all this ship stuff on ebay, that you could just give it all to me? I assure you I would give it all a happy home if you did!

Just a friendly suggestion!

Say, drop me a PM and I'll see what I can do...there are some things I'm sure won't sell.
