That was something
Ref. 19 Whats all this nautical bowline stuff Marian, can nobody put an eye splice in a cable laid rope on your ship. Must only have BAs and no ABs. JS
#33, You can be anyone you want on this virtual ship John:)
lou my late mam and dad told me they took a Japanese prisoner of war in while he was waiting to get home at our home in seaforth dad always said the young lad was in a bad way at that time mam and dad were like that always good to people....jp
In my experience you didn't have to wait for autumn- if your coconuts were the right size they fell off willingly.Quote:

Cardiff general station after 10 months on Ropners', but I was young and foolish, if I had what I sign up for? wild adventure ,magical islands, and payed in gold coins. I would still be at sea, I was led up the garden path by the evil men in the pool , The shipping companys told me lies? I want my time again , with proper ports, no oil jettys and free grog for all the crew, but no passage to Shangri -La. NO docks on the mountains ? there a airport so they say? Today not many places left to go at sea ?Can I crew on a star ship? plenty of new ports/planets for the young men to have fun on maybe? but dont go on any Ropners you never see earth again.
Hi Louis,.......free grog for all the crew
it sounds as tho` the only place for you is Fiddlers Green.
"Where your glass never empties and tobacco is free and bottles of grog grow on every tree, where you sit telling yarns and there`s no work to do and the Captains below making tea for the crew."
Cheers
Brian
