    I am sure Errol is back on board and extremely happy that his Zaca is afloat again!

    I think he is around and flies like angel do and sings the song:

    "STARS"

    Every night before the dream
    I float up through the silent stream of galaxies,
    Sailing along through stars.
    Far above the cares of day
    I drift beyond the Milky Way on stellar seas,
    Sailing along through stars.
    Feel a comet shower shimmer
    All around you in a glim'ring wonderland.
    Close your eyes and, in the hush,
    You can almost feel the brush of Heaven's hand.
    Meet me when the night is nigh
    And I will show you how to fly like angels do,
    Sailing along through stars.
