Rosicky Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Ooh! Look! Nelson's letter confirming his affair with Lady Hamilton is up for auction! And the article says that Nelson and Lady Hamilton conceived a child while they were traveling back to England together in 1800. Did this conception happen on George's ship? Lol! http://report24uk.info/article/337168/admiral-lord-nelsons-letter-confirming-affair-with-lady-hamilton-to-auction-at-10000 2

ricky Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Well don't ya think he SHOULD? I mean why discriminate? lolI'm getting an itch from Mark. That means another chapter is about to emerge. 2
impunity Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 I'm getting an itch from Mark. That means another chapter is about to emerge. So are these declared itches of yours effect or cause with respect to chapter postings?
ricky Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 So are these declared itches of yours effect or cause with respect to chapter postings? I'm just intuitive. I get an itch usually just before a chapter arrives. Usually within a day or two. I post it to track how accurate I am. Let's call it an experiment. 1
impunity Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) I post it to track how accurate I am. Let's call it an experiment. In that case, we should review the results. How much data have you collected? Edited October 28, 2015 by impunity
ricky Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 In that case, we should review the results. How much data have you collected? I'm actually at about 80-90 % so far. 2
impunity Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 I'm actually at about 80-90 % so far. That's very impressive. 2
centexhairysub Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Just wanted to let everyone know that Mark is okay; he just has additional responsibilities this semester and has not been able to write consistently. He will resume both stories when he is able... 2
Rosicky Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Another of Lord Nelson's letters going on the block ... This one is to Lady Hamilton expressing his vexation at not finding to French a Fleet in the Med. http://report24uk.info/post/360276
sandrewn Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Seeing as there is a bit of a time out and Nelson was mentioned again. I have found a film (sort of) on Nelson from 1926, by British Pathe. I think it predates even our oldest member here on GA (if you are older, WOW, let us know). I think there is a lot missing from reels one and two, but three and four make about an hours worth. Even if it doesn't really turn your crank, I would suggest watching it. You will not see its' like again I'm thinking. Dispite the melting near the finish, the film really does end. http://www.britishpathe.com/workspaces/show/jhoyle/N0xOG0eb/full Sandrewn
JimCarter Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 Hi Mark, and everyone, I have been ill, but am doing much better. I hope to be back in the middle of the forums. Can't wait to get back in the flow of things.
ricky Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 Hi Mark, and everyone, I have been ill, but am doing much better. I hope to be back in the middle of the forums. Can't wait to get back in the flow of things. Welcome back brother. It's been way too quiet around here. Glad you are making a comeback. Here's a tip, stay away from doctors and hospitals, they're full of sick people. You might get something. Meanwhile let's try it again. See if my averages will be driven down. I'm getting the itch again. I was wrong the last time, perhaps I'll be right this time. the next 2-3 days will tell the tale. 2

impunity Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Expect a new chapter between now and Thanksgiving (US). If it was Canadian Thanksgiving, you'd have to invent time travel first. 1
JimCarter Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Expect a new chapter between now and Thanksgiving (US). Very much something to look forward to. Thanks Mark!
JimCarter Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 I think it's just looking for attention. You seem to know our lovable attention whore very well. 1
ricky Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Eh, off by a day or so. UnLESS Mark had it ready to go but opted to hold it for a Gobbler post. 0.o 1
ricky Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Puts on his Svengali hat, "Iiiii Prediiiict . ." lol, looking forward to reading the chapter Mark, but wanted to wish you and yours a safe and blessed Thanksgiving holiday tomorrow. And to all my friends here, a happy, healthy and safe holiday season this year. Hugs to all. 1
