Sorry fellers -- anchored in Great Bay so we can have a run ashore in Philipsburg, or watch the passengers from the cruise ships sunbathing on the "adults only" decks.

Mr. McCloggie - please go to the marina deck and prepare Sir William's launch for going ashore.

Farmer John, it would be a good idea to post a couple of plastico steward/bartenders at the stainless steel bar there to quench our thirsts.

Done Philipsburg, visited little blue church and said a few prayers and hummed eternal source of light divine. Reinvigorated and less lethargic I went to the shady pharmacy and purchased a small box of little blue pills ( 1 gross). That , my shipmates, is the power of prayer. Hey bartender or bartenderess pull me a scooner of your best dutch Amstel. God is Goed, zon schijnt, sap stijgt.

I hope E-s isn't smoking any of that schijt. It's against our alcohol policy

I hope the shore party doesn't need the spanker quite yet, my 'pourboire' hasn't yet seen its quid pro quo.

The cut-outs will indeed prepare the steam launch for a trip ashore.

Cases of Fizz of course, some Pusser's, Brandy for any potential Horses Necks. I will even offer my services as a Dutch translator if required - but I reckon he will manage ok by himself.

Now, what else would he like? Bacon and egg butty on the shovel? As Red is not here, an escort to the local pharmacy to stock up on anything he may need and a watch to keep ES out of the way?

I assure you we will look after Sir W on his run ashore!

They are on permanent standby, worked off their dainty little feet. The only bar with water cooled bottle opener.

Good God, I've been making ice lollies from the tongue depressors in your cabin. In addition to orange and strawberry flavour we now offer Smeg as a new improved offering. Be quick as demand is rising.

That tape better be on your store's list! Tmac's red pencil is always out when it comes to Armaclean, WD 9 and other Lecky stuff. And that's before it gets to the Kremlin. Not, please note, not when it comes to allen bars, shifting keys, fleshlights, ACC40 etc.

(Note I am very good at the game and do not need the remaining 39. Tmac, on the other hand....)

Remember to plug that shirt back in before Tmac notices it's gone. They use up batteries faster than an Applewatch on speed.

I think you might brush it down too. You might find a plastico or two stuck to it by the time you've visited a bar or two.

Check the tail, there may be more stuck to it than Varley found.
It really is Buck House quality but Mrs Q should be warned to wear her shades. T can lend her his welding goggles for the afternoon.

I made a comment, thankfully it seems to have gone astray.

I feel Sir William may have been straining Raspberries through it. And his shirt.

I had thought that noise was from straining at the other end. The colour on the other side would confirm it.

Another name for a short shirt is a Cutty Sark. Like the witch Nannie from Robbie Burn's poem "Tam O'Shanter" was was wearing. Can see why Tam was interested. Here's a pic of the figure head of the Cutty Sark:
