I'll have to read the book again...<br /><br />'The Raven' is definitely one of my favourite albums, so it's nice to get some more background information on it.<br /><br />Keep the blogs coming! Hope you make it to Leuven...<br /><br />Regards<br />MarkMark (Belgium)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15504393428640189691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-995615252839539172.post-87897598531361132232010-02-22T15:40:45.040+00:002010-02-22T15:40:45.040+00:00Dear Jet,

So, on release from the ship thay would soar to approximately 5000 feet and did one of two things: spotted land and buggered off towards it (and the ship followed) or did not spot land and came back down to the ship, not wanting to get their feet wet.<br /><br />Rich.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18119396206907114745noreply@blogger.com
