    Here Is A "not So Serious" Question For You To Ponder!

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Old Rammy………...

    I wonder if he married the postmistress, at the post office next door...….

    He was, in my opinion a real giggle, calling Jill, jillypeas and somehow I was Donegal Geoff.

    He actually sold T shirts with a pic of his avatar on and Ramjet Rules underneath, He sent me one for my birthday, which I had a photo of me wearing it and posted it on here, I believe also that Sue and Hank,(sue was Tuder Rose ) who started the NBO had one as well.

    A real character of the olden days of this great forum, he was marmite, but I loved him.

    Wherever you are or whoever you are Rammy, stay safe.

    I tried the cold turkey route.......

    I would never wish my 2 day mood on anyone again.....

    so I went to vape, if I do not have my vape thing with me, I don't worry as much as if I had run out of fags....

    But I still stand by my thoughts that if someone smokes/vapes they are not the scum of the earth (maybe I am) and if pubs allow it then that is the choice of the pub, and it is up to anyone who wants/ or doesn't want to go in to do so.

    Now I know the reply from some, I don't vape and don't like it so I won't go in, but that will be evened out by those who do and those who aren't bothered one way or the other.

    Nicotine is a very addictive drug...................

    It wasn't always fround (spelling) upon to be a smoker, we got addicted, I don't smoke anymore, from 40-60 a day, I vape.

    Breaking the habit is HARD, VERY HARD, but a lot of people have done it, a lot of people are still trying, but I know what I don't want to hear, and it is people who have been lucky enough not to get addicted telling those that are/have been how to live.

    Like I said before, fumes from cars, even boats (topics on here about fumes from another boat entering your boat) are as bad or even worse.

    ...... shush now..... before you go too far DG

    After months of trying to convince my self I can still ride a motorcycle I’ve finally realised I can’t.  An old wrist injury and a touch of arthritis in the other arm I was in agony after 20 miles.  The bike has now gone but I’m not too down hearted as I picked the keys up for my lastest addition to the family.

    Here is Hele enjoying her self a bit too much I had to prize the keys out of her hand.

    It would certainly show those boats that somehow manage to keep moving during the night, when everyone else has come to a halt with no wind...

    Are you saying that some crew cheat..........

    hi,

    your lighthouse comes from The Lizard, Cornwall, and is made from Serpentine,the gift shop where she bought it might still be there! this was 5 years ago or so,Serpentine was carried in ancient Assyria to request the gods and goddesses to provide double blessings. Serpentine can be placed directly on the skin. Healing properties of Serpentine. Balances mood swings. |!!!LIZARD1.thumb.JPG.7f1f46ba2147c751d4ed6213e0e3fa08.JPG

    It is still there, went in last year and will probably go in this year.

    I feel I may be a bit unkind here, but how can you have a Gin festival and mention Bombay Sapphire and London Dry.

    It's like having a whisky festival with Bells and Teachers.

    If I were a school teacher I'd give it a C+ must try harder.

    Also, why advertise free glass to take home....

    Isn't it normal to take your empties home with you to recycle...

    talking of leaving things on the broads....

    Went into the Bell at St O laves for a meal one night, sat at a big round table, Lady the dog got comfy under the table.....

    Finished meal had another drink to wash it down, then left...

    Back on board I said "Lady's a bit quiet tonight, is she OK"

    Mrs DG, looked at me and said "she is sat with you"

    I didn't say much apart from " won't be long love, just remembered something"

    Off of boat back to the Bell, walked up to the table we were sat at, and said nice and calm to the family sitting there...

    "Do you mind if I get my dog"

    She was still sat under the table and the family didn't know...

    When you first got your boat, what did you forget to bring with you? What is a must have item apart from life jackets. A torch, tin opener, binoculars and tea bags are already on the list. And a fishing rod.

    Remember its close season until 16th June Lionel.

    and there you have it..........

    A post about asking about buying your first boat, and the things you would want on it to make things nice and easy, and you have a reply like that......

    it is a sorry world we live in....

    The  likelihood  of an angler being injured in the same way as a swimmer is almost certainly less likely. 

    You are quite right....

    As a swimmer I have never had to "unhook my hand"

    Sorry....:default_coat:

    Yes. Let’s just apply the same standards to all fun pursuits

    I agree, but please lets hope if it goes ahead it is safe.

    It will not be one person, angler, boater, (saily person, who always fall in) it will be 200.

    I for one, being an idiot hirer (sorry Bill) will not want to read in the EDP about a mishap....

    To clarify, I would not touch the event with a barge pole, but you can not stop people taking risks.
