I think it might be me :-)  If a sparrow is endangered and the oak is Englands national tree :-)

I am very excited now, I hope I am right ...

Fingers crossed :-)

If it is me that it's coming to it should only be a brief stop over, the new passengers are ready and waiting to board, there trouble may be deciding which passengers are allowed through customs :-)  Ohhhh if it gets to me before the weekend I can have all weekend to sort out passports etc. and then I can let them sail off on Monday.   Ohhhhhhhhh :-)

Ah, so THAT's what the BAP endangered list is.

Not where the mouldy cheese rolls go, then.

Pleased to report the ship has docked, I will have it ready to leave again.  The next port of call is 45 miles north north east of the wyrm.

Happy Holidays

Too criptic?  OK here's another....

The wyrm dragged a famous abbey into a bay.  See what you make of that!

It was me!

So last clue and for those that count your cards probably an easy one. Just remember the opening and closing line for this song verse. All good revellers should know this one!

Xxxx xx xxx xxx xx xx xxxx
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it went right to my head
Where ever I may roam
On land or sea or foam
You will always hear me singing this song
Xxxx xx xxx xxx xx xx xxxx

I'll be posting the parcel tomorrow on tomorrow, minus some and plus a few others.

Ahoy there me hearties!

The good ship Camden Town reached its final harbour today, after a truly epic voyage that began in January. The vessel had returned earlier but, with one very important passenger having been left stranded, set off again on a swift crossing to the oceanic paradise that is Hull. Well, shipmates -  we did it! We covered all five continents, taking in 31 countries with 58 ports of call. Here's how far we got:
 
Australia: Queensland
Belgium: Antwerp
Bolivia
Canada
China
Denmark: Copenhagen
England: Ipswich, Bedfordshire, Cheltenham, Durham, Evesham, Great Oakley Kelvedon, Kingston, Norfolk, North Essex, Wellington
Falkland Islands
France: Alsace, Florence, Lyon, Marmande, Meaux, Nantes, Paris, Provence,
Germany: Berlin, Munich, Neckar
Greece
Guernsey
Hungary
Iceland
Italy: Castelfranco, Chioggia, Florence, Genoa, Milan, Naples, Ortolani, Quercia, Rome, Sicily, Tuscany,
Japan:  Gobo, Osaka, Senshyu, Tokyo
Kenya
Mexico
Netherlands: Amsterdam
New Zealand: Wellington
Persia
Portugal: Lisbon
Russia
Sicily
Spain:  Trafalgar
Thailand
Turkey: Istanbul
USA: Amarillo, Atlanta, California, Chicago, Columbia, Detroit, Grand Rapids, Minnesota, Montana, Oregon, Richmond, Wisconsin, Yellowstone
Wales:  Elan
West Indies
Yugoslavia
 
And a few…er…more general destinations:
 
Arctic
Globe
Oriental
Sub-Arctic
Tropic, and finally...
WORLD!

My thanks to all the crew, as fine a bunch of seadogs as ever braved the briny. You all deserve a tot!

Now if I can just remove the fifteen men from this parcel, I'll get to the bottle of rum...

Yo Ho Ho!
