Midnight party on the pool deck. Come as you are. If any one asks what time, don't fall in the pool --- you are probably too inebriated to swim. :pint:

Swimming is for wimps, I'm skinny-dipping.
Steward may I please have a bottle of McArdles.

If you want to show off your McArdles to the ship's company please use Facebook and not the swimming pool.

The ship's company can't handle McArdles, it's too refined a taste for Jolly Jack. I'll invite those I know will appreciate it to a corner of the pool deck. TA can entertain his hoi polloi to Tennants along the rest of the pool. I'm still unsure which group you belong to, but I've a fair idea.

Midnight parties are great. Heres me in nowt but me silk Boxer shorts. Large one for me please steward!

You can suspect me of anything except a liking for lager. I prefer my proper ale to be lower gravity than that. Googling McArdles suggest it might also bring on some mighty weird medical symptoms. McGargles? You'd have thought that name would have been 'reserved' to prevent imitation!

Whichever I do NOT expect mine to be dippily skinned or fondled in a corner. I'm far too shy, not to mention twixt-buttock retentive. And someone should remind Sir W that the phrase 'excused shorts' extends to the underwear, silken or roughcast-shoddy - that thing's knocking off two bridge buns and a sausage roll every time the canapes are passed round.

Ooooohhh very posh, silk boxers eh?.. not great for preventing skid marks and they creep up the crack of your arse :chuckle:

I'll just make do with my old "Budgie smugglers" the oil and grease stains hid the skid marks :thumb:

McArdles !!!! get a real drink inside you man, try one of these = Morton's Red Heart, Double Diamond, Guinness XX or best of all a "Wee Willie and a White Horse" :pint::pint::pint:

The judge said I wasn't to do that again.

You're a vain bugger. The underwear doesn't 'bind' if your boiler suit's big enough. I suppose you have platform engine room boots too.

I've never seen platform boots like Tmac's --- all those multi coloured sparkles - (very chic) or are they just metal filings??? Better keep an good eye on them as there are probably one, two, or more plasticos who would love a pretty pair like that. :bounce:

Go Commando big man.


Like me. But keep your bicycle clips on.

Did you get dressed in the dark Sir William? Those boxer shorts look more like French Unmentionables now they're out in the fading evening light. It's the lace trim that concerns me.

Much can be concealed. And retained.

Just sipping some single malt, it's like a toffee apple wrapped in a kipper. Don't breath out near a naked flame.

There's only two things on this ship that smells like kippers.

Well, Farmer John has revealed one and the Plasticos have just poured boiling water over some brown flat things and layed 'em out for breakfast (along with that egg to order). What you have hanging in the uptachimbley is your business. Please keep it that way.

I bought these from a gentlemans outfitters in Bugis street. First time I have worn them. Lace you say? Oh my you are right Dart Skipper! never mind....this party could turn into a SODS Opera ha ha ha

Very fetching. The problem is with whom they are likely to fetch!

(I have just noticed an invitation to send you a message via Skype - what exactly is a Skype and how much is it per word? - Gold Francs please. Chelmsford wouldn't like to have a competing service on GD).

Chelmsford, Chelmsford??


Last century Old Man (As youse useto say to each other).


This vessel, GD II, is GDMSS,GMSDD, DGSSM, don't carry a Sparky. No wonder the bar bills are up in a heap.
And half the crew mincing around the Promenade Deck with silk drawers and sweaty bollocks. Smells like par-boiled kippers.

Reminds me of the blind man passing a fishmongers, he raised his hat and said "Good evening ladies" :chuckle:

I was advised by a former employee of a Mac Fisheries outlet, never to buy any fish "that advertised itself." :big_tongue:

Subtile, Tmac, subtile.

Reminds me off the late John Briggs comment about confusion. He likened it to 7 blind lesbians on a Tuna boat. Really miss John on here. Rest in peace shipmate.

Miss our old shipmate Mr. Barnes the door man as well -- bloody things squeaking from side to side with the roll of the ship --- surely someone aboard can fix that with some WD40 -- or have we drunk it all???? :o:o

No Tom, you're doing it all wrong, no wonder you're still standing. Spray the WD into a paper bag and then inhale it, now your motoring. Do not tell Tmac or we will spend all our drinking time loading pallets of paper bags.

If we are really short I can let you have some of the '94. I also have some Armaclean, the '88, but as it is the final vintage (some foolery about Oz's own layer) it is reserved for Christmas and the odd loyal toast.

I might add that taking it like that is very juvenile and bloody dangerous if enjoying a Havana with it.

I've heard of being well lubricated, but not literally! If you ingest too much WD40, does it have a freeing up effect on internal workings?

It prevents the hip replacement rusting and stops snails and slugs slithering up the nasal passage.

I fear the loosening effect would be about equal between tools and stools.

We always have a 5 gallon gerrycan of Lectrasol in Leckys workshop (a palindrome, I believe)to entertain the off-watch guys at St-Easy. Tmac always brings a packet of Arrowroot or Marietta biccies to raise the event to Afternoon Tea level.
Tomorrow we are going to celebrate with a cake baked by the steadfast Ashers in Glengormley, all are welcome. No Poofters.

Lucky, then, that you don't have any palindrome handy then isn't it?. I suppose you might try the WD40 instead. And, by the by, who said you could do that (or that) in my workshop?

And what pray are we going to sit on then? I like a nice soft pooffe on my Derry Air;)

Ashers in Glengormley?.... Doagh Road one I presume (the heathens won't get that) :jester:

Great stuff that WD40, cures coughs, colds, sore arse holes and pimples on your ******
:big_tongue:

I read somewhere that WD40 was mainly fish oil, and I have never heard them squeak, whether they have sore arseholes or pimples on their **** I have no idea.

I would love an arrangement on here where, if you typed in ******, a random obscenity was substituted.

Howzabout:- "Dickie".

That brown stuff we injected into the turbo-thingies is a bl00dy good chaser. A dash of Angostura Bitters sets it off lush.

What, like, "Oh FFFFFxxxxxxxxxxxqqqqqqqqqq$$$$$$$$ZZZZZphrrrrrrrrr rtttttttt ?

Arranging a going away concert on the beach at sunset. Large bonfire with surrounding Tiki lights. Tmac, please bring your Lambeg, and all other accomplished (or otherwise) musicians bring whatever it is that you can get sound from. (Conch shells, Kazoos, Spoons, squeeze boxes, tin whistles, or whatever. I do know there are some accomplished guitar players aboard, but the actual lyrics will have to pass the censorship board first. (Nice young children will be present.)

BBQ pulled pork with pineapple, and other traditional tropical delicacies in more than sufficient quantities for all to enjoy. Free bar set up for the locals to enjoy our hospitality to the fullest. :angel:

Gonna be a great party Tom. well done. I look forward to it.
