What do you "tink" Que V does the wording warrant a removal?

Aye up our Trevor, whats happening on the happening front with the photies? We all know you took loads, as its quite likely we are all starring in said aforementioned we'd all like to be as vain as could be and see them.

Is that why they call you Clever Trevor. "Spring Onions" did Sue come up with that one?
-
Trevor, If you find any more screw them around the edge of your pontoon, it would help you go astern easier and there might not be as much gel coat all over the place! Oh that Que Vadis knows his onions doesn't he?

I was actually referring to the third picture posted by Diesel Fallout. Do you think his ancesters used to compare muskrats for a living?

Trevor Who was the tramp in the marina?

It was lovely seeing Adam skipping along the pontoon this morning singing "supercallyfragilisic" etc etc he must have thoroughly enjoyed his dvd last night. Anyhoo it looks like the Coldham Hall clan can now rest easy as the master is there with the tickets, but perhaps it wont be looked upon as a " pipe and slippers " any more because the mighty NERAIDA forged a passage through with the help of the WHOOMPERS from Quo Vadis,Blownaway,Laura Jane and NOT LE Grand Chew.!!!! Mark now being the foremost authority on Whoomping was there to watch and learn and also jumped ship before crossing said palms with silver. Hope all manages to get to their destinations this nye and makes the most of it. Are we right in assuming reedham bridge will open new years day?

The ice in St. Olaves marina is also still 2 to 3 inches thick but seems a lot softer and easier to break now. We were thinking of tying an old wreck to the bow of one of our little flotilla heading for Surlingham ferry NYE. Luckily it looks like someone has abandoned a tub called Le Grand Cru, we'll use that.

quite poplier quo

Diesel Falcon; Whoomping (please note double O) is similar to tapping, you know the constant noise from your engine bay! but whoomping is more severe as in hitting the ice with a bloody great big iron bar as Quo Vadis rightly pointed out you were so doing during your visit yesterday whilst other forum members looked on. Its a shame that after 10 minutes of harsh whoomping you managed only to break approximately one cup full. As for your Curling (please note C not K) the idea of filling your kettle was a good one but you'd have to phone Sue and ask her what it looked like.

one would have thought if one had a lighthouse one could have seen if the office was open. Is it the case with your lighthouse that all the poor mariners who flounder get the reply " Oh i thought the light was on"

Hello Lighthouse Keeper i see you're Cummins powered, were there no alternatives at the time? It's at this point i'd like some advice from you if at all possible. I have a bit of a predicament and your knowledge of all things marine would no doubt extend far beyond the reaches of some mere mortals. My problem is that i've been experiencing a few problems with my old ship just lately but have been fortunate enough to have been left a sum of money and was wondering should i buy a new Sealine or put the rest to it and buy a reconditioned outboard for my Shetland. I would value your comments greatly,

Hello all. Just a little tickler for you. How does 10 knots sideways, strong winds, anchor not attached to chain, a pannicking missus AND no engine drive sound? St. Olaves bridge racing toward you. I thought F*?*!*g hell. Canopy down, (on top of the mrs.) "MY HAIR" she said as the bow spit took a few bricks from the bridge, then another almighty bang as we ploughed into something else, cupboards opened, glasses smashed, cups and everything all over the place. Didnt have any time to roll a ciggy. Why does it always go down the middle? couldn't do a bloody thing. Funny how things go through your mind, "i'd only taken enough clean underwear for one night and these ones are already full" Any hoo got my money s worth out of the rubbing strake i can tell you. After another large item spun us round i bit the bullet and jumped ashore, on reflection i wish i'd had a rope in my hand. No seriously hung on to the rope for dear life (i mean wife) pulled like Jenny Capes(Jeff Capes grand daughter) Well we're not all built like brick dumpdocks! Then out of the blue a shining light, like a flash appeared the Lighthouse Keeper, Bob stood and watched taking a puff of his nosegay and said you're in a pickle aren't you? He must have intel inside there's nothing gets passed him! Then after a slight altercation with the very pleasant young lady whom insisted it was private mooring we battened down the hatches and have left it for the night. pile of cr?p. A big up for Bob for his help and for Jiffy on whom its fallen to recover said aforementioned tomorrow with the grand ship Laura Jane. It's a wonder there were no tryping errors i'm still shaking like a paedophile in a school playground.
