Latvia Tour ( #67 ) & Cyprus ( #66)

[Alez]

So it's about turn and head for Latvia ...again. I wonder if there's anything left after our last visit


18 M in front so a couple of days and we're back in the Baltic.

Too much time spent on Moo and MW. Full steam ahead for Latvia

[Silver]

We're getting there :bounce:
Them gaining 8 million credits at the weekend had delayed or boarding party somewhat :pirate:

[Alez]

Should be in Latvia tonight and then in Cyprus in the morning. Must be all these high winds

[Alez]

Latvia done and dusted....again. Quick, grab all you can and back to the fleet. Be in Cyprus by the morning. Should be a tad warmer, rum on the beach at sunrise, awesome Akrotiri, I'm almost back https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Akrotiri, brace,brace,brace.

Not too much time to then, onward to the little island we go :pirate:

We made it. Cyprus is ours. #66 . Lot's of happy memories and some very hazy ones here, so staying for a few beers and rums on the beach. Sierra Leone up next, not so many happy memories there.... in fact never want to see the place again, but hey yo, will be ( only virtually ) there and gone before the new year. In fact I'm staying here. Silver you are in command, will rejoin the fleet on our way to the Caribbean and home

Pity we missed out on some of the earlier countries. Vietnam was great for someone as young as I was.
Indonesia, well I remember going to a bank, taking out the maximum amount allowed which worked out at £40. thinking, awesome going to have to do this everyday, then a week later, taking everyone from the local bar to a nightclub after buying them all dinner and still having more than half left over. And my apartment had a swimming pool, which we used after the nightclub. Luckily my apartment didn't have neighbors
Iceland was one of the most spectacular countries I have every visited. The glaciers and hot springs, volcanoes.. out of this world.
Georgia had perhaps the best red wine I have ever drunk and some of the locals were quite stunning. Just don't speak Russian or you will be in ehhhh...trouble

[Silver]

And it's gone again!
I've never seen an island run away before
I'm begining to wonder if there is someone playing with us?
Latvia jumped 8 million away from us, now Cyprus has done the same. Could it be the same person??
It's only a matter of time till we land on the beach again anyway so onwards

[Alez]

seems to be a likely explanation, but can't see who it is that is doing it....or maybe we are paranoid weird. on the 23rd latvia lost 8.1k http://boincstats.com/en/stats/-1/count ... 9/lastDays, just after we overtook them, today Cyprus gained 8.6 k http://boincstats.com/en/stats/-1/count ... 5/lastDays.

seems to be that someone needs to get a life or join us as a true pirate

got him http://boincstats.com/en/stats/86/user/list/0/0/Cyprus UBT - Mikeejones , UK Boinc Team.

Well spotted my CSI pirate chum

Just makes it more interesting overtaking everwhere twice, it's also good to get the chance to have another look around

Cyprus should be ours again tomorrow...

[Alez]

He's 15th in UBT, 135.5 million in total but is only changing his citizenship in Collatz.

[Silver]

I suppose we all need a hobby....
It's just prolonging the timescale, we'll still get there :pirate:

[Alez]

Indeed, hope he packs his suncream, mossie repellant and anti malerials before he jumps ship to Sierra Leone

[ubt - mikee]

Ah me jolly rogers - seems I've been rumbled - heh heh heh. Me cunning plan to knobble yer gunnels has failed. I'll slink back to me cave now an think of of another thwart that needs thwarting!

[PinkPenguin]

If you can't beat 'em... you could always join 'em. I'm sure they'd give you a warm welcome and barrels of rum!

[Silver]

Mikee does indeed sounds like pirate material, a new recruit?

[ubt - mikee]

Arrh - think I'll join you for a few tots of the old grog if yer don't mind the smell. :drunken:

[Alez]

You are more than welcome to jump onboard, the more the merrier, although it does make the Rum rations last less. Guess we'll just have to store more

[Alez]

Any hoo, Cyprus invaded. Stuck around the beach, Sierra Leone in the bag so rejoining the fleet for the Caribbean new year home coming
