    Jock,

    I am very glad the wee Saltire finally found her way to you.




    She is in good hands

    Cheers

    Thumbs up Saltire Update

    I recieved a mysterious box from the postman today, "Looks like another kilt for you" he said, "I wish !" said I.



    But I knew what it was, the wee airship has been making it's way from Scotland to the Zardoz vortex for a few days!



    So the XMTSAS Saltire has landed safe and sound in Houston Texas for a two week tour. It will disembark after a fly-by of the Houston Highland Games on the weekend of May 15-16th

    OH MY!

    Why do I have the feeling that The XMTSAS Saltire is someone is going to wind up leaving Texas with a new warp drive and phaser banks installed?



    Z,

    Glad she made it to you. I look forward to see her with your entourage

    Cheers

    Mark, please don't corrupt the wee Saltire too much. Remember, she is still young.

    The Saltire's sealed orders were opened this morning and her orders were "to proceed, forthwith, at her best speed ......". Destination? Well you will have to wait and see! We have enjoyed the company of the Saltire very much and we also hope that the members of Xmarks have enjoyed a brief look at this bit of the world. Fair thee well, wee craft.

    Brilliant Mr Z, my knowledge of Texan history is limited to The Alamo and very little else. Have you sampled it yet?
