Title: Back to sea, finally
Post by: RJS87 on July 21, 2009, 13:15:44: Hi guys,

I'm departing to sea tomorrow again. So i'll be not on ss mp for a couple of while...
I'm leaving for 4 to 5 weeks, sailing on a ferry between zeebrugge (belgium) and GÃ´teborg (sweden)..
Just for a holiday job, working on deck, and helping in the engine room..

And if there is some sparetime, try to get up my stats in mission playing on my laptop :captain:

So today is my last day online,

Maybe see y'all today and otherwise see you in a couple of weeks ;)
