Ah come on lads, a wee cake and a bottle of cheap white from Aldi is just not good enough.
Tom, or Old Tom as I call him, designed and built the Titanic and deserves a tray of wee nibbley bits and a cake made from multiple M&S Apricot Swiss Rolls, his favourite. Drink will be rationed as these battery wheelchairs can cause havoc as evening turns to night.

Many Happy Returns Tom and lang may your lum reek.

Tmac, the plasticos have been making little nibbly bits and decorating the Tiki bar for ages, very happy birthday.

ES, I have recently acquired at a scandalously low price ( less than £3.00 with postage) Tmac's colouring book and photo album of the Titanic, it is a wondrous thing. Better than an "Eagle" annual. My granny mitched of school to watch the beast being launched, she asked politely for permission for the school to go, they said "NO" so she went. She never changed, a strong woman with a streak of intolerance.

A very happy birthday indeed, Chief. It is so kind of you to buy a drink for the crew and staff of Golden Dreamer II, but could you stretch the expenditure to a box of straws as well so that we can all taste it?

Super!

I spent the last weekend marching round and singing "The last man left alive", then you all came back. Very disappointing.

Well -- sorry chaps -- away for a road trip followed immediately by 3 weeks camping with restricted internet coverage. Since back have been diagnosed with highly likely esophageal cancer subject to two more tests. Medics in a hurry to set them up so not looking good.

I am disappointed, however, that my Russian spy is still aboard and waiting to get to St. Petersberg. I am pleasantly surprised to find out that the spy is actually a very nice looking, well endowed young lady -- disguise was excellent -- very misleading. She is comfortably billeted in my quarters, so no particular hurry to leave Belfast which is where everyone seems to think we are.

Last but not least, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, T MAC !!" Here's looking at ya.

TA you're made from granite.

Are we in Belfast, I doubt it. The last time we were there the Tmac Clan came on board and drank us out of house and home. And the language! When we could understand them we couldn't make out what they wanted, although the Ladies seemed content with a wee Smirnoff or seven.
Varleys cholesterol exceeded his waist measurement and he banished the Ulster Fry and introduced the Ulster Grill. Hence the saying, Pissing against the wind.
Lets leave wherever we are and get a bit of wind across the deck, we can re-group and plan our next campaign.

Tom, that's not good. Hope the worst is just a laser ablation job. Meanwhile better lay off the sword swallowing and the brasso.

Sailing tonight from Miami, as SE says (damn, he talked sense !) our destination is Las Palmas, we need a new Canary after the wind problems we have had.

Tom, get the tests then you will know where you are, you are very much in my thoughts.

From La Palmas we can plot our best way to deliver your Russian Spy. I thought she looked a little like Mata Hari, but someone said that was Japanese sports car.

Not such good news, Tom. Hope the tests provide something hopeful. We can't drink all the stores ourselves, although the engine room staff might argue that point.

All the best.

Well at least with doing it in the oven black pudding need not be part of proper breakfast (Oh 'god', you can't put a whole one in the oven can you?).

Oven or frying-pan (We call it a Skillet in Antrim) , I never was a big fan of Black pudding. However I regard myself as a koni-sewer of white pudding or Putog Ban as its called on a £15 breakfast.
Varley get your Pinny on, sleeves rolled up, a net over your beard and get cooking. Yum.

I got a bit ofBlack Puddin' close to my mouth once, but my olfactory glands warned me of the culinary disaster headed my way resulting in instant rejection of the offering. I'm not a food woosie but I do have a red line.

When it comes to puddin', though, I found the old spotted dick with warm Lyle's Golden Syrup all over to make a satisfying dessert.

Las Palms, here we come!!!!!

Elephants tool? We had it at school, syrup already dribbled over and with 'optional' custard but never at home (there suet was reserved for the snake and pigmy).
