Well, here I thought that you'd retire from the Cabinet and spend all of your time with the C.S.A. Drinking Team! But I do hear that the Cabinet prides itself on a premium liquor stock, and that members may freely imbibe at will. I suppose that it's all good in the end. A happy Cabinet is a productive Cabinet! :wink:

Congratulations, Cam, and thank you for maintaining such a committed interest and voluntary contribution to the club!

<SALUTE>

Thanks for the supportive posts - however the whole thing has been a bit of an anticlimax. I had invested a lot of time and effort into building a massive re election organisation, raised millions, invested in vote rigging, hidden voting stations, made promises I could not possibly keep and paid for attack adds - all for nothing. Well in fact the attack adds will not go to waste as they will be used to just generally smear the Union - a good investment if there ever was one.

I forgot to add, I will be hosting a small celebratory function at the Vicksburg Arms later this week - all welcome


Cheers,

Cam

Word of your preparations was leaked. Hence the vote by acclamation and general joy and boisterous behavior in our little kingdom. None dared take it on and, thank god, a peaceful election has been held.

To your previous and continuing service sir <salute>!
