Good old Dr Ross, I knew Him so well:cool:
A lovely man, he saved a lot of sailors, and the old man in the brown coat and jam jar glasses for ten shillings or 50 Cigs would give you an extra jag.
WONDERFUL MEMORIES OF THEM, tHE WORST WAS THE GIRLS IN THE BAG WAREHOUSE ACROSS THE ROAD SCREAMING ABUSE.
BRIAN.
Now don't tell me Brian, you gave those girls a little gift as well? LOL
Brian,some of those girls should have had them bags over their heads, ugly cows:eek: I remember running that gauntlet to the Seamens Dispensary and the jeering girls shouting Snotty Dick,and other ladylike comments.:rolleyes:
ttfn Peter.
peter i could never understand why girls with lovely blond hair want to dye the roots black:pjp
I was in the Grafton one night and one of the girls I asked to dance, said `Go Away, I saw you going into Doc Ross`s this morning.`
I was all clear as well.
Brian.
Remember once on leave asking a nice young lady for a date.
She said no, I don't want any of your foreign diseases.
I replied I've just seen the doctor and I'm clear.
Even that didn't work.
Just cant please some folk!
Den.
I have just been in town today, only go in about once every three months just to the bank.
I thought I had emmigrated, never heard a word of English spoken, I had to find the Town Hall to make sure I was still here.
So we have lots of Tourists that speak with the language of the Khyber and the North West Frontier, and all wearing strange exotic clothing from the Arabian Nights stories, also we had many visitors from Rumania, Poland and Estonia.
I havent seen many tourists from the USA or Australia or Canada, I wonder why not, we are on the Internaional tourist trail.
Es salaam, [ see I am learning some of these interesting languages].

Those from Oz would come but are afraid the locals there will eat their camels. There are more feral camels in Oz than in saudi Arabia, brought in by the Afghans origonaly!!!!!!!!!!!
A British Navy Destroyer stops four ******s in a row boat, rowing towards England . "The captain gets on the loud hailer and shouts
"Ahoy, small craft, where are you heading?"
One of the ******s stands up and shouts,
"We are invading the UK!"
The crew of the Destroyer all start laughing and when the captain finally stops laughing, he gets back on the loud hailer and says
"Just the four of you?"
The ****** stands up again and shouts,
"No, we're the last four. The rest are already there!"
