    AS Chapter 13

    I was asked to play once more, and this time I played Clair de lune by Debussy, which was a lot harder than the first piece I played. When I had finished, I said goodnight to everyone and exited the lounge room, heading up to my cabin, where I collapsed onto my bed, relieved that the night was over. While the guests were enjoying a relaxed breakfast, I was on the bridge preparing to get moving again, stepping out onto the balcony, I called out to Sam and Marcus to raise the anchors, and I r

    “It is an unexpected honour to host you and your family on our humble catamaran, may I suggest that you drive down to the jetty, to await the arrival of the helicopter” Jay said politely. As the guests returned to their vehicles, Jay and I fast walked back towards the jetty, and as we arrived we could hear the faint sound of an approaching helicopter. Aunty Jacq appeared from the bridge balcony, looking up briefly before looking at us, “We should be ready in about ten minutes” she said to

    As were neared the completion of your course in science. I had taken on extra studies again, so I was doing two courses like last year, this time doing a Bachelor in Applied Science, so that I would have a Masters Ticket for Commercial ships, instead of just being a Navigator. After finishing my first degree in Marine Science in Oceanography at the end of this year, I will be studying for one more semester, to complete the second Bachelor degree, so I will be able to manage the operations o

    Sam and Marcus set to work to do the cleaning up after dinner, and Amanda and I retreated to my cabin to play some video games and listen to some music. Sometime later, “Attention all crew, prepare for night shift” Aunty Jacq’s voice came over the PA system, and Amanda looked at me. “That means, close down for the night and head to bed, and I have to start my shift on watch” I said to her as I stood up and stretched. “Goodnight, see you in the morning” I said to Amanda as I left the cabin a

    As soon as I said that Amanda set off downstairs to check on everything in the galley, Uncle Jay appeared and looked at the radar, before he too raced off downstairs, to instruct Sam and Marcus on what to do when that order is given. For the next four hours we were tossed around, but not quite as much as the previous boat, Amanda appeared every hour to give me a fresh supply of tea, and some snacks, and as the weather started to abate, Uncle Jay appeared, looking very wet and cold, as one o

    Privately I had made another request of the Lawyers, to draw up documents of offers to buy the 25% share of MPI that are currently held by the station managers who work for MPI. At a very generous amount, $500 thousand per share, totalling $12.5 Million. These offers would be sent to each of the non-family shareholders by mail, with the request for an email to be sent directly to the Chairman of MPI with a reply of acceptance or rejection of the offer. During the next two weeks since retur

    Asking for the Clerk that I spoke to earlier on in the day, there was a two-minute wait before he came to the phone. I explained that I had received an unexpected call from my son. I played the tape, once the recording was finished, the Clerk asked me to come back to the Court House and he will try to get some spare time for me to see the Magistrate. When I arrived at the court house, the Clerk told me that the magistrate was too busy to see me again, but he added an attachment to his prev

    The honeymoon was short, but considering we had a week at the resort before the wedding, that was acceptable for Miranda and I. We were booked on an afternoon flight from Broome to Port Headland, with the station plane waiting for us to take us to Carlindie Station. Kyle was pleased to welcome me as his new son in law into the family. As we were flying to the station, Kyle mentioned there was some business to discuss when we got back. I had a good idea what that business would be, that is

    After a wonderful meal, Kes asked Daddy for a story before going to sleep. Bryce smiled and said “As long as it fine with Mummy, yes I will read you a story”, looking at Miranda for an answer to his statement, she just smiled, nodding yes, “Yippee, may I be excused please Grandma?” Kes asked, and when Elizabeth nodded yes, Kes jumped up from his seat and tried to drag his daddy from out of his seat to follow him. Bryce thanked Elizabeth and Miranda for a lovely meal, excused himself from the tab
