And for you to neck most of the Black Bush?

Give him 30 minutes, and take a glass with you, McCloggie. Anyway it would take Hercules to divert his stream to hose that place out.

The Cut-outs funnel Camouflage, Repair and Lifetime Extension party have prefabricated the "wings" and are now standing by to commence the on-site work. They will also be available to assist Tmac with the clean up and relocation as required.


I do not want to upset anybody here so maybe if I were to bring some of my Scapa and Tmac some of Bushmills we could discuss a suitable time for the actual work to begin?


McC

Better get at it, Mr. McC ---- we're almost there.

Pilot in 6 hours -- price to board the GD is one case of Jack Daniels Tennessee whisky - (Well - they spell it Whiskey!) :pint:

Ooooh, a funnel suite party. Good oh! we can be quite piscatorial for entering port then. I'll bring a bottle or three.

Dear God - What next?

First things first - who has the case of Bourbon (what our septic friends call Whiskey)? Can somebody please provide this so we can engage our Pilot. The case should be delivered to my Master at Arms office under high security so I can lock it in there.

Sir William - a funnel suite party sounds like a great idea BUT the cut-outs must clean the area out and complete the requested changes before we can open the area for general use. It is still full of scaffolding, crane lifts will be ongoing, hot work to be done and the area is still isolated off so there is no power.

On top of all that we are still trying to persuade Tmac and his menagerie to vacate his quarters and to be honest, the barrel of Bushmills (plus my Scapa) seems to be more of a hindrance rather than a peace making offering.

Having said that the two of us seem to be enjoying ourselves and the world rectification committee is in full session.

Can I suggest we steam round in a big circle until we have finished our deliberations, cleaned out the suite and completed the woek?

McC

We expect the Pilot to be able to afford the modest fee for treading the decks of the GD, something not offered to everyone. Otherwise, we just keep going till we find somewhere we really want to park and then nuzzle a space alongside.

Tell you what, let's put sqweek on the wheel when we enter port. Guaranteed there will be loads of empty berths to choose from.

Mr. McC, we will complete a complete circle and use the exercise to observe our props, rudders, and other such under water appendages from our bulbous bow observation lounge. By that time we will definitely arrive at our shceduled berth.

Steaming in a big circle party in the Bulbous Bow lounge right away. :pint:

Are you sure we can still parallel park like that now we have ladies aboard? Perhaps the engagement of a pilot would be prudent.

squeak will be below recording Engine movements. (one bottle for each movement)

Squeek is an injuneer he doesn't do driving..:yawn:

Squeek is an Injuneer but only in the loosest definition of the word, as was his grandfather before him. It was Big Squeek or Mr Squeal as the Stokers called him, who decided to overhaul the Titanic's bilge pumps 3 days out of Queenstown. Lord Pirie never forgave him.

Nothing wrong with the Titanics pumps. It was the sluice valves that were at fault. Divers reported the pool is still full so that was well made too!

We already have a pilot aboard, David. Parallel parking is a breeze now we have surreptitiously removed the software from one of those new fangled fancy cars. Just needed to be interfaced with the bow and stern radars. :bounce_angel:

Tom must think that you are deaf Varley, he sent that twice. :chuckle:

Yes chaps, I am back in the land of the GD. Did you wonder where I had gone??:cat:

Eh? Sorry. The headphones must have become unplugged. Noticed that a couple of times after luncheon.

Yes Red 17. we missed you. (thought you having a lie in)

No I did not.

Welcome back Red - Yes we missed you, but so did the rhubarb patch in Mary's garden. I think the automatic sprinkers need adjusting -- the plants look like they're dying of thirst........ But then so am I, so why don't you join me in the shade of the palm trees up on the pool deck. Farmer John has your favourite DP up there on ice. :pint:

Do you ever say Yes ES?

I shall see you soon Tom, and FJ. Now that I am back I shall take a hard look at the garden and make sure that Mary's garden is in good order. Once I have got it looking nice a again maybe we could have an old fashioned garden party, invited guests only. Or is that likely to start a mutiny? :rolleyes:

so good you are back RED17. Wonder if you can help mith this back pain I have. Hot packs, TENS, ultrasound and a stretch on the rack might help.

I won't ask as to how you acquired the back pain Billy boy but I am more than happy to assist with your recovery. As well as the treatments you suggested sometimes relaxation massage can help, so, before we put you on the rack we will try all other methods. Just make an appointment with me and we will get you started.

Yes.
Yes I did not miss you.

Well I missed you a wee bit.
I miss your nocturnal visits to the Control Room for coffee and French Fancies and your tales about growing up in New Zealand.

last time I had this I came out of Hospital in a wheelchair. 3 months before Physio got me out of it.

Thank you, Red - We have fond memories of Mary and her gardien. I'm sure your light and tender touch will produce miracles. :flowers:

For you, my Red-eyed girl,
You, my Red-eyed girl.


Hello, Hello. It's good to be back, it's good to be back.
Hello, Hello. It's good to be back, it's good to be back.
Did you miss me, Yeah, while I was away,
did you hang my picture on your wall
Did you kiss me, Yeah, every single day,
although you couldn't kiss me at all.
And did you love me, Yeah, like a good little girl,
Did you tell that naughty boy not to call,
did you love me, Yeah, in your own little world,
Although you couldn't see me at all,
although you couldn't see me at all,
Hello, Hello, it's is good to be back, it's good to be back,
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, I'm back again, I'm back,
I'm on the right track,
Hello, Hello tell all your friends I'm back, I'm back as a matter of fact,
as a matter of fact I'm back


Yes, Yes, Yes, FFS we missed you.

If that's how you woo in Hibernia I would counsel you try a little more whoa.

... or it could lead to woe?

It is my considered opinion and I am unanimous on this, nobody on GD2 should lead with their chin. Never ask a question you don't know the answer to cause you will not like the answer.
You would never hear Tmac asking if he was missed. On return from a spot of leave he would say, Here's to me, Who's like me, Devil the one.


So Red 17 give us 100 lines of:-


Here's to me,
Who's like me,
Devil the one.


And Fcuk the begrudgers.

I wouldn't ask if anyone missed me because I already know they did because before I left on leave I sabotaged most of the systems just so as you would know I was gone and appreciate the things wot I do.... some pup me, me da was a greyhound..:big_tongue:

Anyhoo injuneers are a much maligned and forgotten breed until something is broke then the injuneer is wanted by all to fix wot is broke like wot we does. :balloon:

Good injuneers are harder to find than a virgin in a brothel but as I is a great one I must confess to NOT being a virgin or even virginal so to speak... as my dear old mum always said "as pure as the driven slush" :yawn:

do we form an orderly or dis orderly queue? :big_tongue:

Mary's garden is always kept quite neat, but this time of year, a firm hand on the potatoes is always welcome. I will put in some hard work on it if you let me know.

I think we should root out the Jerusalem Artichokes (if this is possible) after the last time.

only person NOT missed aboard here is ME Basically because i do nothing...except challenge the bar stocks of course. Then again as owner I suppose thats in order. and I do cover the occasional watch below when Tmac needs a well deserved break. I have even been driver at times...(Not my fault them people on the yacht decided to go for a swim right in front of me...still say they shouldnt have been there)

I am seriously impressed ES, never took you for a Gary Glitter fan. Is the 'F' in FFS the same one as in WTF? :rolleyes:

I would welcome your help in the garden FJ, a job shared is a job halved. I don't think that the potatoes will be a problem but those darn Artichokes will be a bit harder to get under control. Do you think we should perhaps graze the goats in that area for awhile? Oh dear, I fear that I may well regret asking that question. :o

Speaking of Goats, we haven't heard from Coastie for a long while ----- haven't been presented anchovies on toast for breakfast either. :egg:
