Didn't that same rubber ducky grace Sydney's harbor not too long ago where it experienced some problems?

Re: Rubber duck for Chris Greaves
Is anyone sure that that it isn't Chris himself being pulled by the tug?
He has been quite quiet recently...

Re: Rubber duck for Chris Greaves
I thought is was very nice of someone, to actually give Chris his own ducky!
He probably hasn't posted here for a while because he is too busy trying to get it in his bath tub.

Chris will have to wait a bit - the rubber ducky won't reach Toronto until July the 1st...

Re: Rubber duck for Chris Greaves
I emailed Chris yesterday to see why he might be absent from The Lounge. I had lunch with Chris a couple of weeks ago and he was experiencing some "walking-issues". Yesterday he informed me that the issue still prevails and he hopes to be back in about a week.
His closing remark was "My regards to all at Eileen's Lounge."

It's that old fashioned thing that still resides in some Bath Rooms.

I actually meant practicing getting it in your Bath Tub but I'll leave it to your imagination to do whatever!
