Lord Varley issues an instruction:-


Some of you underlings fetch me a troublesome engineer officer.


Sounds a bit like the Headmaster sending for a truant. Whacko.

Here we are,San Blas, the prime place to relax and laze, we have our own accom and grub, and all the talk of is of a stramash.

That kind of food is unacceptable unless we have to.

Steady away, more ship visitors, more fun. My lads will look after the food and booze, let's have some harmony.

If you need to use hairspray, fair enough FJ. Personally, possessing fewer follicles than previously, I find the use of gentlemen's (or the good lady's) hair fixative rather superfluous.

I find some nice Mansion polish the most effective.

Here's real harmony.

I am reminded of Flanders and Swann's deflationary observation on the Welsh.

They sing far to often, far too loud and
…....……………………………………………………...flat.

Billyboy, me oul china, could you book a double act for Saturday Evenings entertainment, and it will enchant the local bigwigs. How's about Flanders and Swann along with Hinge and Bracket, believe me they will go down a storm. A word of warning, you must try to keep Dame Hilda's hands off the brandy and Varley's hands off Dame Hilda.
Tmac is very musical.

I am more worried about where Dame Hilda's hands are going to wander between cognacs. I don't want Dr Evadne's hands on my bracket either!

Midnight party on the pool deck. Come as you are. If any one asks what time, don't fall in the pool --- you are probably too inebriated to swim.

Swimming is for wimps, I'm skinny-dipping.
Steward may I please have a bottle of McArdles.

If you want to show off your McArdles to the ship's company please use Facebook and not the swimming pool.

The ship's company can't handle McArdles, it's too refined a taste for Jolly Jack. I'll invite those I know will appreciate it to a corner of the pool deck. TA can entertain his hoi polloi to Tennants along the rest of the pool. I'm still unsure which group you belong to, but I've a fair idea.

You can suspect me of anything except a liking for lager. I prefer my proper ale to be lower gravity than that. Googling McArdles suggest it might also bring on some mighty weird medical symptoms. McGargles? You'd have thought that name would have been 'reserved' to prevent imitation!

Whichever I do NOT expect mine to be dippily skinned or fondled in a corner. I'm far too shy, not to mention twixt-buttock retentive. And someone should remind Sir W that the phrase 'excused shorts' extends to the underwear, silken or roughcast-shoddy - that thing's knocking off two bridge buns and a sausage roll every time the canapes are passed round.

You're a vain bugger. The underwear doesn't 'bind' if your boiler suit's big enough. I suppose you have platform engine room boots too.
