Virtual Ship

[Geoff Anderson]

Hi All.
Whats a GPS???,
weve got an out of date ESSO road map comp;ete with stains,and a wobbly steering wheel. That moves as far backwards & forwards, as it does side to side. I think its ALF did it, daydreaming he was pulling pints a the local pub.
So Madmick if you could help us out , try standing at the end of a long pier and wave something. we can normally find piers and jetties, the bigger the better. but be ready for a pierhead jump as nobody knows how to stop this thing, sorry ship. Ill keep an eye out for you.

I thought GPS was short for gypsy, and I am sure we have a few on board. Queenie down on the heads, Gulliver gone A.W.O.L. no tab nabs available as Den is stuck with a blow up model, maybe that is the problem, his tabnabs are blow up ones, not real. Alf is begining to think he is a Catherine wheel he is going round in so many circles, Vernon is ashore trying to get some sly grog as the locals will no longer supply us, something about our credit not being good any more. The Royals were last seen playing dice with some tab nabs, they do roll well, almost as good as this ship. Think it is time for the fog locker and some of that home made Plum wine. Must remember to take the stones out next time, they play havoc with my dentures.

Thanks to Vernon I have a Port Line flag in my box. Now where did I put that Port Boat? I have tried to get my signature on my messages, but dont' know how to do it???? back to the galley, cooking must be easier. Where is Den again, Blxxdy blow up dolls.

[Dennis McGuckin]

Now young Terry. Lets have a little respect for your elders. I am back aboard after a spot of shore leave so get back to work.Want this galley ship shape and Bristol fashion, just the way I left it. That blow up doll in the corner will have to go. Although it does look cute and kinda familiar. Anyway, stash it before the Capt. inspection. Do we have one, Capt. that is. If so where is he and where is my rum issue?
Den.

[Mick O'Brien]

Sorry den but i supped all the rum. and regarding the blow up doll, if the old man asks just say its a fishermans friend.

That reminds me of an old story about one of the queens, up on charges of a sexual nature.Anwsers the judge in a crooky voice, the judge says to it , Thats sounds like you have a very sore throat. Have you ever tried sucking on a fishermans friend. To which she replied,'' dont you think im in enough trouble without you suggesting doing that as well.''

OK mad mick.
I think were on our way , cant be sure of anything on this ship. Ill keep my eye out for you, You just keep waving that flag. Mind you a red pr of nickers might be better. You,d be surprised at these old tars can see.
when they think a female is in the offing, theyve got eyes like sh-- house rats. And I'm sure DEN will be looking out for you now that youve drunk all his rum. I ll give him one of my spare bottles to keep him happy for a while.

OK which one of you stepped on my ant on my new avatar, it was running about before.

[Dennis McGuckin]

Thanks x taffy 2, but it will take more than one bottle to even give me a smile, let alone make me happy.
Den.

[Terry Wilcox]

Den, I did not think that you cared........Respect your elders?? Well I must be the baby of the ship at 62 years old, is there any other crew menber younger than me? as for the rum, i am to young to drink, I will stick to lemonade. Take care........Terry
