add to the boat
thing, that i can get sea sick on a pond and you get more idea of why they
didn't come up in my dreams
 
and how funny is it that i appreciate the
Tattoo's now more than i did when i lived there. not that i didn't appreciate
them back then. but maybe more now that i see so few.

Boats were only in my
dreams too, Frank, until I came to the States and ultimately owned several 
They say that, rather like owning a Jag, the two happiest days of a
boat-owners life are the day he buys it and the day he sells it.

And, I
should have said the Royal Tournament, rather than the military tattoo.  My
addled 63 year old brain couldn't come up with the correct name at the time I
wrote my note.

Dolly birds?  You're a child
of the 60s, Frank!

Personally, my best memories of Earls Court was the boat
show and the annual 
military tattoo, especially the Navy's field gun
contest.  My dad would yell 
himself hoarse if the lads from Pompey
(Portsmouth) looked like they would 
beat the Devonport barracks.
