Why be coy about what it is?  Not saying what was grabbed helps only the Ottomans.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I've always felt a little weird about that. But anyway, Sultan's Harem.

Again, I do not have the cb file in front of me, but in my mind I count 14 Spanish dice against my 13, is that correct?

In any case Dragut will evade to Eastern Mediterranean. Will the Spanish follow him there?

Off to bed now. If Spain pursues and Dragut makes the evasion roll he will evade to that western sea.

Dragut escapes again.

Off to Szmik.

That's why Martinus, for all his spending on the trappings of wealth and taste, will never really have class.  He's just trying too hard to be something he isn't (an intelligent, tasteful gentleman), trying desperately to hide what he is (Polish trash with money and a severe behavioral disorder), and it shows in everything he says and does.  He's not our equal, not by a mile.

Oh also, I'm going to be down in Jersey again this weekend - so I'll have internet access but won't have CB.

General advice: England in particular, but France as well and maybe even the Protestant, need victory points from new world piracy. This is fact. So far, not a single piracy attempt on the world map. I think that is unique.

Oh I'm sorry. I think I might have lost 5cp somewhere.
