Gentlemen and ladies your concern for my welfare has touched me in many ways, should I be cynical (perish the thought) one might wonder what you lot are after? In my weakened state you wouldn't be seeking an unfair advantage on a shipmate, albeit one with an enormous shifter readily to hand to emphasise his point of view.
Vis-a-vis my personal hygiene arrangements I find Swarfega not completely effective in removing years of grime caused by my honest toil... (who is that sniggering at the back?
) For going ashore moments I find a liberal soaking in Gunk most effective coupled with a nice power wash round the bilges from Squeek
In winter climes the addition of some steam to the jet is most invigorating.
I shall now return to my funnel suite and hopefully one of the plasticos will grace me with a bowl of Chicken soup and a wet flannel for my fevered brow.
