There doesn't seem to be a bar onboard. Otherwise she looks a little twee but perhaps the plasticos might find it attractive when cruising.

The tender that we have would tow that thing up to about 300ft altitude.

Something with a bit of a snarl about it is wanted, I think. Let's call it a Gentleman's boat.

Is this in the same way that every male imagines that a handbrake turn makes all the girls gasp and long for your attentions, while the girls think you are a fool?

Mind you, the GD in a handbrake turn would make anyone piddle themselves.

You note I didn't say "PISS", it's naughty.

Waving of large pocket handkerchiefs, wearing flip-flops ashore and rubber underwear when afloat do not suggest Gentlemen to me FJ. 'Fast' remains something good in Religion but rather the reverse 'in the city'.

Will Norton 360 protect me from Corona? The frigging wedges of lime gives the old ulster a bit of gip.

Is a corona discharge or coronal mass ejection part of this game or am I being alarmist? And if not which end is implicated?

Never in the history of epidemiology has it been recorded that anyone who drinks Black Bush has caught Corona Covid-19 or indeed Covid-1 to 18. This is very good news and deserves a wee pour-out.

Aye nothing like relaxing with a nice Black Bush of an evening, and the whiskey isn't bad either

Bought, well acquired one of those Alexa thingamabobs as apparently they know the answer to everything so I thought I'd try it out. "Alexa what do you get if you cross a vagina with an encyclopedia?" back came the answer "A c*** that knows everything" seems they are not so useless after all

We are not in self-isolation here yet. I see that the grabber crane at Bridlington arcade is now loaded with toilet rolls, I understand that business is brisk.

Hmmm no one up here on the bridge either. Think I will ring down FWE and drop the hook thingy. everyone seems to be in self isolation. I'll run up a yellow flag and we will stay here till people feel better.

FJ thinks self-isolation has a sexual element to it, Vmax thinks it has something to do with the Bustie Breakers and Tmax is concentrating on the word Self (A H&W failing).
Me; I've locked myself into my stateroom with a good book, a packet of rice and pasta and a toilet roll. BTW what does one do with this pasta stuff?
Stand By for heavy rolling, wash your hands and no snogging with Sweaty Betty.

Whatever one is doing with a Bustie one should have clean hands.

Pasta? After boiling (for the time given on the label which also informs you it was not made in Italy and therefore need not have been part of your buy-panic) one wraps it between two sheets of much recycled quilted forest product. Do not assume that this becomes a self wiping bowel-grip snack, reserve some of the paper for the morning.

Buck-up shipmates, I'm going to slip a pizza under your door. I'm experimenting with red wine in zip lock bags but wine tight integrity, as yet, alludes me. Hic.

Of course there is a gap, the bloody ship was built on the Tyne. Now had it have been built in Belfast only flat breads and chapatti's could be slid under.
So me oul segotia, will I send up a Margaritta or an Isobella?

I am tight, a lot tighter than a zip-lock bag.

You'll never get any part of the Lady Isabella under my door, Jerry built or otherwise. She's Victorian engineered and fettled.

I know your cabin is palatial and spacious but fitting a 72 foot wheel in it is out of the question. It's the Margaritta for you my lad.
PS, thanks for the education.
