How to keep a ferry passenger happy
Well one sunny morning a family drove thier car onto the vehicle deck of the topcat fast ferry,unfortunatly he ignored instructions for parking to close to the next lane of cars and could not exit his car.
So he decided to get out of the passenger side he had arthritis and asked for assistance so wiithout hesitation i took his arm and heaved unfortunately his car was a manual model, and on the way out he caught his trousers on the gear stick,out he popped without his trousers or underwear and looked a bit like a stranded whale,after helping his wife recover from a fit of laughing they were last seen walking up the vehicle deck into the safety of the passenger lounge
