    I see....you used to go to Raymond of Bond Street, but have now fallen on hard times so that's why it's hairier than normal......I can recommend my own personal barber......Igor!

    (step clunk step clunk step clunk along the deck......must stop putting socks on my wooden leg, they get holes in so quickly) Hubert!!!! Own up you mangy dogs, who forgot to put a nappy on the ship's donkey? And where's Deck hand Worcester Pearmain and his mop when you need them?

  • Evenin' all. Midshipman Ivan iPhone here, ready to plunder and drink till I can'ts drink no more Arrr! (What do you mean? Not that type of apple?)

    Pass the extra strong Tetley's Igor, I needs some dutch courage and plenty of it.

    If I'm to sail on the Ennessdee then I need to find me sealegs. If they're full of the extra strong variety then I might be able to stand up, so I will.

    I've found another one of those elusive NSDs so I have. NSD11 is mine............ALL Mine........mwah ha ha ha haaaaaaa.
    Life is knowing which bridges to burn and which bridges to build! :think:

    Midshipman iPhone, there be no Tetleys rubbish on this ship. Only the nectar from the blessed apple in this bar. Apple rum, apple grog, cider, apple cola, apple shandy, apple brandy, apple whisky. And lots of dinky little dishes with olives and nuts in.

    Whaddya mean, apple roast, apple stew, apple fry, apple and kidney pudding, apple and egg flan.....where's the meat, Igor?

    Whaddya mean, you've gone all vegetarian on me? See those green furry creatures out there, Igor? Yes, the ones using the donkey's nappy as a sail......grab one, peel it, shove a stick up its arris and shove it on the fire...the captain's hungry, and he wants meat.....

    Shiver me timbers, I feel a chill in me swash buckling bones I do! Must be time to set sail.....listen to the band playing as we drift away from the quayside....keep your eyes peeled, men, (all right, and ladies...yes, and you too, Igor....and you, Egremont.....) I be going to have a bath in the company of these fine wenches Rosie Cox, Pink Lady and Goldie Delicious..... Pirate Mac, that leaves Maggotty Meg and Putrid Lil for you.......keep your eyes skinned for any apple thieving varmints.....we have a ripe fruity treasure on this ship (I don't mean you, Egremont) and those scurvy knaves are waiting out there to get their thieving mitts on our apples.....

    Ahoy me hearties...sorry a bit late in returning....was hijacked by this - soo dangerous!! Was so engrossed in it , had to quickly defrost tea before DH came home :o!!

    So how is every one tonight...any cider going?? At the mo this is the only way I can take alcohol, what with all the medication I am taking :D!

    Not sure how long I will be able to stick around as I am starting to flag tonight.

    Ooh...just noticed someone has mentioned Scottish Dancing...(mind you...that's how I broke my foot back in 1983...actually it was a sailors' hornpipe...and in a pub at lunch-time :o).....I could do this kind of dancing...won't affect my asthma!!
