Re: [A/S] Why is it called the silver albatross?

Hi 
I own The Silver Abaltross If you are qurious as to how it got its name it 
came from The Ryme Of Thr Ancient Mariner The reason is that when I bought it 
I belived the SOB who told me it was in perfict shape but on the 1st trip the 
toilet fell through ther floor and from there the troubles compounded 
themselves so after spending more money than I could eaver have thought and 
countless hours I thought I had fixed eavery thing that could possably go 
wrong there was always little glitches that always raised there ugly head. So 
like the Aincient Mariner who was forced to ware the abaltross about his neck 
I started to feel the same way about the Tradewind. Haven said that this 
thing has become a love hate relinship and an obsession .Ihave found great 
joy in upgradeing it and am now trying to make the interior to be one of the 
most eligent tradewinds in existance. It has become a hobby that keeps me off 
the streets I have lost all count of the money spent and time consumed by it. 
But what else is a 75 year old man to do ???Spend my time watching daytime 
TV?????????
