Quote - @ fran: don't get greedy 😄 - besides, i heard the cutty sark gets a 10 million grant from the lottery, that will take care of a lot, i think. moreover: much was not on board when the fire broke out as it was being restored anyhow. it was long over due, that restauration, it made me sad when i visited her many years ago and saw some parts of the hull were crudely repaired with ... concrete!

I've always thought of my Greed as my best feature, closely followed by my Gluttony and of course my Sloth.  Envy hangs about in the wings waiting for an entrance, my Anger awaits beneath several cleverly constructed trapdoors.
Unfortunately my Pride died back in the mists of time: - we mourn the loss sorrowfully.  Lust however is still flickering gamely on the back burner, awaiting a chance for greatness.

Lol...

Koff, back to normal.

I've actually been looking at the Cutty Sark site and it seems that as much as 70% of the ship wasn't even there when the fire broke out, and the majority of what was burnt can be saved by sanding off the blackened outer skin, only a very few timbers are actually unsalvagable, so things are looking a great deal brighter all round.

I may even one day once more stand upon that great ship, as I once did as a child.  Ah... happy days.
