| Message | I would like to extend my thanks to those who pointed out to me that my party originally voted "yes" instead of "no" to this by accident. I was a little bit drunk in the Grand Assembly that night...and as for the other Ducal Delegation members, well, they just follow me and vote however I vote :-) Percy Waterman (Personal Secretary to the Grand Duke of Hikirena) |
