Tempus Fugit Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 it was anchored in a bit of an odd spot, right on the end of the 'fairway' preventing anything making a straight approach, just as well that it did a runner before BMC arrived Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Tatlock Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Just think of how many jobs are provided, enabled or touched these days through Microsoft products. £ trillions worth across the world now. I don't begrudge him a big boat...he's effectively paid my wages for the past 20 years. Even the island must have had a substantial tickle of all the money spent and earned on it locally over the past 20 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Very nice ship Tattosh - spent about 6 months on the build in Rendsburg on this one - installed getting on for 6 x 19" racks of satellite & A/V distribution - sort of (quality & expensive) kit you would have seen in a leading Cable TV distribution network at the time. Sailed through the Kiel Canal a couple of times, then did sea trials in the North Sea - moored later at Cuxhaven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaac Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) I do wish we'd stop calling rich people "high net worth individuals". There's more to a person's worth than how much money they have. In the case of Paul Allen, I'd say making a contribution to the advancement of technology and contributing to good causes has been a more worthwhile part of his life than accumulating a lot of money.
