New webbie on board

Well, not that new
Hi - I'm Dave, the latest web editor to join the Esperanza. I'm no stranger to Greenpeace shiplife, indeed some of you might remember me from previous adventures like Pirate Fishing: West Africa. Right now I'm posting from the Greenpeace NZ office, while the Esperanza is pulled up at nearby Prince's Wharf, in Downtown Auckland.
Over the next few weeks, I'll be guiding your through our adventures in the Southern Ocean, where we'll be in pursuit of the whaling fleet. We can't do it on our own though - Join our virtual crew and post your ideas to save whales!
If your in New Zealand, come visit the Esperanza this weekend!
Where: Princes Wharf, Auckland (behind the Maritime Museum)
Dates: 20 & 21 January 2007
Time: 10am - 4pm
Entry is free. Your koha/donation is appreciated and will help our voyage.
The open boat days will be on regardless of weather.
For more info, contact Greenpeace NZ.

Ah there young Mr Walsh, good to see you back from your holidays in the emerald isle...You know, I told John Bowler, when he was looking for a new webbie: "If you can get Dave Walsh to work for you, you will be extremely lucky"!

Hi Dave...,
...and what a pleasure it is seeing you at the webbie helm for this (dangerous, ...and vital), mission. Remember you from previous adventures? All I can say is, ...to know you is to Love you. Thanks very much for being here and standing strong, where you are so needed.
...and thank you too Helena, you were magnificent and inspirational, and made many days of darkness, turn into Light. My heart and spirit is with you all in this coming mission...

Paul, you really are the master of the back-handed compliment, aren't you? :) Holidays, holidays he says! Good grief...
Grateful Child, yeah, it's good to be back - that was me, earlier on the Defending our Oceans trip, if you remember me? I'll pass your comments on to Helena. Good to have you on board!

Hey again there Dave, ...and of course I remember your fantastic presence, ...as I said, ...to know you is to Love you, ...what you've accomplished and have meant to Greenpeace, this earth, ...and myself personally. I believe you took over from Andrew in South Africa last year if I remember right.
...Anyway, that's quite the rockin' website you've got there, ...and thanks very much for that. I'm sorry to hear of the passing of your young friend, and Light of our earth, Richard Watson. He'll be one of those stars you'll follow as you head for the southern ocean. I'm really glad you're on board too Dave, ...Thanks for facing up to this challenge my friend, ...GC
