Age is not the problem, attitude is and the hatty chewd by Cappy is testament to that.

I try to do all I can, if I try and fail that is OK.
But there ae those who say without even attempting to do it, 'I am too old'.
No time for such persons.
When you stop trying, and I know some cannot through illness etc, you are on the slippery slope to the end.

As long
as you don’t kick that bucket of water on the deck which came out of the canal to measure the displacement of the ship to satisfy John in Oz that no one had nicked one of the containers without being noticed. During the night . JS

[happy daze john in oz]

Now John under OHS with water on the deck you must put up warning notice,
"Slippery Dick'

[j.sabourn]

I thought the amount of sand in the water being of good Sinai quality would act as a non skid so signs werent necessary. Sorry I was wrong did you fill in the accident form ? Sausage Roll . JS

[happy daze john in oz]

Of course the 'slippery dick' is only how those in NZ pronounce it.
Uncultured lot

They have a few weird pronounciations I know , a girl sitting next to me on a flight into,Auckland asked me if I had a pin , I said no and asked the wife if she had one who also said no , she gave me a funny look as I put my pen away after filling in my arrival form. Now if she had asked a real Scotsman he would of answered och aye hinny Ah ken what you mean but have no got any pockets in mah kilt. That would have been a good conversation to listen to . JS

PS An I forgot mah Sporran JS

#12 my wife keeps on telling me I’m too old , I keep telling her I’m not. What does one have to do to be believed when you can’t run as fast as the one you are chasing ? JS

Anyhow this is the first thursday of the month and the meeting in the pub of the ancient mariners , the chairman an ex Vindi boy is in his 90s and brings his live in carer I’ll have a few words with her just to be sociable , to heck with this talking of ships all the time. 1.5 hours to go and counting . Have you broken into your chocolate Easter egg yet ? Cheers JS.
