Leave the Marmite for the Motherland. Wouldn't even use it for engineroom lubrication (unlike the RAN on HMASs Canberra and Adelaide). Two useless vessels named after two beautiful but otherwise useless cities.
If you fulfil your threat to visit Melbourne today you won't need your bikini fur lined or not it is 14C rain, hail and freezing south wind. Fur coat more appropriate (fake fur, of course) as we need to protect the rat population.

I use the Marmite, most of the crew from the Motherland use Marmite. As you seem to be the only one to use Vegemite I put it to you that you are the one who replaced the Marmite with Vegemite. (I'm practicing for a spot on Judge Judy )

Lets not mention the Canberra and the Adelaide, two warships not going anywhere soon. Any chance KJU is responsible?

I won't be in Melbourne anytime soon but will be passing through on my way to Hobart in May, I will stay within the confines of the airport so you need have no fear YM.

Don't worry Pat, there will be some peanut butter somewhere. Have you tried it on toast with honey, Yum, or banana? I don't recall receiving a memo from the skipper to say that there would be no more peanut butter allowed on the GD.

I think that most of the crew are to old to suffer from a peanut allergy. Seems to be a problem with children born since 1995 not 1925.

If you can smell fried chicken Pat they aren't yours, I have them all safely tucked away. Just between you and me, or should that be you and I? Hmm, anyway I have your chickens safely stowed away in the 2nd funnel, for heavens sake Pat, do not tell Tmac. He seems to be a bit fragile at present and I really don't want to upset him anymore than he already is.

When do we meet up with the polish sub to take on cargo or has the plot been lost?

Pay attention -- we already met up with the Polish sub and transferred the "cargo". The shenanigans in Pape'ete were just a cover up for the operation -- we're not normally like that, are we?? Are we?? Like snakes have armpits? Chickens have lips?? We wouldn't want to head directly for the "drop" so we are doing our usual "cruising" stuff to detract everyone's attention from what we are really dong. (I think!)

[YM-Mundrabilla]

Yes, it was me (or I ?) who stocked up on Vegemite before we left Tahiti. I always take a stash of Vegemite when travelling as sometimes I get the chance to have Americans sample the product. I find that a full teaspoon (neat) produces the best results. In spite of the foregoing it was not me that threw the 17 x 500 ml jars of Marmite over the port rail at 2314 last Monday.
You are probably correct about the DoB for most crew members on the GD although the ages of some are unknown of course.
Speaking of the second funnel, I fear that I have been misled in that regard. I was led to believe that that was where the nubile nymphs, regardless of age, were to be accommodated only to find that it is now full of Pat's chooks (err chickens).
If you stay with the GD there is a fair chance that you will end up in Tassie sooner or later but I am relieved that you will be confined to the airport at Tullamarine whilst in Melbourne.

Oh dear, don't worry boys, I will be better tonight, promise. Yust a gurlie moment.

Dear Red, Some time aqo we had a serious discussion about the time differences extant in our space/time continuum on the GD and came to the conclusion that we adopt Golden Dream time -- something lacking in specifics. Please remember that if you are 12 hours away in real time from another poster, thay also have the identical problem of being 12 hours away from you. Perhaps you should come to my quarters, and we can have a discussion on the vagueries we encounter on the GD over some nicely chilled champers??

[Tom Alexander]

I have secured the Palm Court Orchestra to play on the Garden Deck, Farmer John, please arrange for the plastic stewards to man the stainless steel bar there.

Pats -- it's been a long time since we tripped the light fantastic together, and I wondered if you would honour me with the first dance this evening?

[YM-Mundrabilla]

Either way Red-17 we are hours ahead of them..........

Dear Tom, you're right, we did have a discussion about time zones. I think maybe I should come and have a chat with you over a glass or three of champers. I am trying, I really am!

As I have been hard on Tmac of late maybe he would deign to have a dance with me? Could be fun.

[billyboy]

I am sure Tmac would love to dance with yu Red-17. juast make sure he washes his hands first though, he's a devil for leaving oily hand prints in strange places.

I knew it! You maybe relieved that I will be stuck in Tullamarine on the way to Hobart but, the day will come YM when I will be in Melbourne. No doubt you will make your way to the Nullarbor to escape me. You can run YM but you can't hide.

[QUOTE=PatriciaAnnT;1148]

Pat, please count your chickens. Two were found on a Sydney train today, they may be yours.

[billyboy]

No where to hide at Mundrabilla now as my private train was scrapped after my last trip ....... (another 'benefit' of privatisation).

It might have to be Narvik after all.

Thanks billyboy but I think that Tmac should let me know if he wants to have a dance with me. I shall be careful about his hands

[billyboy]

I love my Vegemite too Red-17. that Marmite not good for me as it gives me painful joints.
Freshly toasted bread, Queensland Butter, melted cheese with thinly sliced tomato and a spreading of Vegemite....Perfik!

Cant do anything about your wind??? go stand by the Lee rail and let it go as quietly as possible and nobody will notice.

[Varley]

Sorry about the latest batch of gripewater folks. Some black gunge got into the mash and for some reason there is taste almost but not properly of marmite which the still hasn't managed to remove (It can't have been anything from the engine room I usually take a dip from the sludge tank).

(Tmac made this still anew for the SH hull. I wonder if it needs 'seasoning').
