Injectors is it?... profuse apologies Red17 but I was not aware you had experience of fuel injectors. Please accept my sincere apology and you are welcome to service the main injun injectors at your pleasure. (I assume you have the correct extraction equipment to hand)

We are currently running on my patented mixture of HFO, Bunker C, Guinness and Irn Bru so no adjustment of the burn rate will be necessary.

I shall dispatch Eric to the sick bay when he finishes his watch, he only has the second hand and part of the strap left to consume. As for myself I shall be conspicuously absent as my BUPA subscription is still in force and further have a distinct aversion to hypnotic nurdles, especially when wielded by young ladies

Just make sure you don't resort to blast injection!

Oh, Red-17, you could talk me into anything except having a record. I leave that to my legal double, he's a bad 'un.

I have a record - but not the criminal kind. It's vinyl and you can listen to the whole thing here:

Arriving at "sinking" co-ordinates. Tmac, please turn off the cloaking device (Black Bush coming down voice pipe as we speak) No doubt our accoustic devices will pick up the two Los Angeles class subs that have been assigned for our protection (and that of our cargo).They will not know that they have picked them up but wouldn't they like to know.

Dart Skipper, please plot a course for the Yucatan Channel to pass 20 miles off the coast of Cuba. Then head for Galveston Bay.

Now we can all relax. Drinks at the Pool Deck bar on me.

I'm a bit of a coward when confronted with needles so now is the time to muddy the waters and delay the inevitable.

Red 17, you want me to report to the Sick Bay with my Service Record, I assume you mean my Inoculation Certificates...... Stop the boat!!!! Before I proffer my bum up for a jag I demand to see your certificates in Phlebotomy and Venipuncture, even if they were awarded by the University Hospital of Waga Waga. All I have is Farmer Johns word that you are a medical professional, not a Bush Nurse with a rough and ready manner.

Enough mud for the time being, bum safe from unnecessary penetration UFN.

I had an encounter with a famous 'Bush Nurse' years ago - God she was scary! A thorough dragon. Red does not come over on here as anything like that.

Will that get me gentle treatment for my injections?

Aye, aye Tom.

We should be OK passing the North coast of Cuba, Fidel sent all the missiles home in 1962, allegedly. I can plot a course between Cuba and Haiti to throw any spy vessels off our track. We could detour via Jamaica and drop the hook in Montego Bay and nip ashore in the Admiral's Barge.

Just a thought.

I will be along for my jabs in due course, as long as the needles are not as big as the one I had inserted when I had pneumonia. I'm sure it was actually designed to administer therapeutic substances to a horse.

This kinda reminds me of my first ship at sea where the skipper was undergoing his last trip and a clean record, and under extreme stress to keep it that way.

One night I heard him muttering, while standing in the corner of the wheelhouse that nobody paid any attention to him anymore.

If you want to do that it's OK by me, but in order to satisfy the change in arrangements, I'll have to tell the two Los Angeles class subs that we have picked up a Russian sub on our accoustic gear and are taking a circuitous route to lead it astray as it appears to be following us. They'll have a lot of fun, and probably develop ulcers looking for it.

Trip to Jamaica would be good. Do we need any extra jabs against Jerk Sauce?

Oi! Veh! Maybe we do have a Russian sub in our presence -- the stain on the sea which we thought might be Red Tide, turned out ot be, upon analysis - Borscht. Maybe their cook is jettisoning their left-overs?

I have noticed that elimination of almost anything after a good dose of Beetroot has a distinct colour. Maybe not left-overs but material that has worked it's passage.

Perhaps the crew jettisoned the cook.

Just a reminder -- for those of the crew who have visited Kingston, when we get to Jamaica you'd better go in disguise.
