Ah, Sir William, what a good idea. We must make sure that they know about the explosive properties of some of them. I will devise a cunningly worded liability release for them to sign on some pretext or other, after the last time.

I have just put a little further northern touch to the course steered, blooming Brazil does stick out an awful lot.

No. He intimated that it was necessary to have only one. Silver service in the saloon is safe. I cannot, however, answer for what seem to be port drinking penguins (mind you, Guild Hall pf a day in March they can be seen in their legions).

Make them work their passage, have them run the laundry, they have great experience in this area.
Especially the Irish ones.

My workers do more than you do ES, sat there with the newspaper on your lap cleaning your glasses. At least, that is what I hope you are doing.

Pugilism with the episcopacy is a very low blow.

I was once sharing a bath with a nun (don't ask !!) when I enquired " where's the soap" she replied "Yes, doesn't it"

During my morning constitutional I was reading a chapter of the Good Book, the KJV, Ezekiel as it is the second week of the month of June. Chapter 25 gave me a touch of the collywobbles and said to me plain and simply, "Leave off the Sisters of Jesus".

Our female passengers are not some blousy barmaids from downtown Mackay or Townsville and I will treat them as ~I would the Owners wife. Decorum reigns down the oilers alleyway.

Jesus in the old testament? Mind you I didn't expect to find Buzi there either. Well, not without Snudge anyway.

I always had a dream of being a nun but I just couldn't seem to get into the habit

Our passengers appear very knowledgeable, I escorted the Mother Superior to show her the shafting arrangement but she said she was very familiar with such activity and much preferred having the stuffing box opened for inspection and repacking.

Always happy to oblige our guests we ensured the stuffing box was well filled to her complete satisfaction

Always wishing to be of assistance I enquired if everything was to her satisfaction as she appeared to have gotten out of the wrong side of the bed this morning. She assured me everything was fine and why did I need to ask. I replied "you have Sir Williams boots on" Tank yew..I'm here all week.

Porridge with salt for the nuns. Wholemeal bread and butter or jam (not both), one egg between three. Damn, we are making money hand over fist.

Well, we are heading nearly due North now, I'm sure the equator is round here somewhere, sort of like a big rope, you'll feel the bump as we go over it.

There could be a strange looking bloke holding a trident, directing traffic.
