Virtual Ship

[Doc Vernon]

One smashing post there Gulliver! Well put and Ship Ahoy!
don't know where you get all the great ideas from for Virtuality but it is good!
We will have to pick out the new Captain possibly from your list there!
I will sleep on it and we can decide later! But has to done quite soon now as the ship is being held up and that's not on!
Cheers

Now Gulliver, as self appointed legal office in charge of elf and safety I must take you to task about this Esso road map you claim to be in your possession.

I have it on good authority that the version you have is not the 1956 you claim but in fact one from 1944 with three pages missing when you failed to find any 'dunny' paper.
The cover does not have spaghetti on it but the remains of a Tab nab reputedly built by Den.

As to a ships cook, we have to eat, we need a new one. The last one ate too much IC1 pudding and fell over the wall.
Tab Nabs a la Den ended up in China to support the wall there so he will not be able to take on the task.

So may I suggest you speak with the C. Steward, who ever he is today and get it sorted.
I have heard Marion makes a god cup of tea, pity as I only drink coffee.

Cappy, it would be such a waste to put them there, the squeak helps some of the lads to sleep.

But we could bring back the Welsh cauldron, boil the badness out of them??

No liking the sound of this ship.
I defintley will not be making Fairy Cakes!

Lets keep this about seamen who have been up the gangway and sailed on the briny together with messroom/saloon banter, there are enough threads to mess about in. This is a fun thread of what we have experienced during our service, let's keep it that way

Interference you say, this ship is built on clarity and openness, total transparency and if you care to view the photo of the ship you will see that.
there are more holes in her than you could poke a stick at.
Den, fairy cakes, not any more mate, all our meals now have to be non gender specific, so not sure how any refugees from UCL will manage.
As to the 'poop' deck, well maybe well named as it does have to cope with some crap at times from some non seafarers.

I sometimes wonder who’s sane and not sane Gulliver. I shall shortly be getting reprimanded for calling a moron a moron so may not be able to correct the compass that you have obviously upset, maybe calling a spade a spade is the incorrect thing to do. Did you try doing the compass the tentative way or the long way, where you might have got a chance to fiddle with Rose. Anyhow a spade might have interfered with co-efficient C . Although they reckon Vitamin C is good for it also. Hope you took your parasol when up there with the apes. That sun can get to you. Take care see ya. JWS

[Ivan Cloherty]

That would have to work for all, many other threads could do without interference ?


Maybe on the poop but, still read by all.

Keith I have no intention of getting into a slanging match with you, I admire a lot of work you do, but mixing with seamen, drinking with seaman, does not make you a seamen. This thread is about what seamen have experienced at sea, people who have had to rely on each other in a crisis, and there are many of those times, especially on deck, when derricks break adrift, deck cargo breaks adrift, timber cargoes need their lashings attended to in gale force 8 - 10 and beyond, engineers having to keep generators and main engines running when the ship is rolling at 45 degrees as well as pitching and yawing, the catering staff trying to keep everyone fed in the same conditions, we as seamen have experienced this, see the humour and sadness in it and know what the other is talking about.

Just for once please let us have a thread without your petulant remarks.

There are many on here, including myself, who admire your good work for the cause, but just for once please try to not to comment on something you have never experienced. Thank you
