PLEASE BRING A BIT OF PICNIC STUFF FOR SAILING YOUR FAVORITE TIPPLE & CUTLASS🙂 Skipper x

So me hearty sailors ...after our infamous "Ooh Arrrrs" of 2 years ago, I have planned some lively entertainment on board (once a few drinks have been downed)! 😋😋😋...start getting excited mateys 🙂🙂🙂

KateB : thah tongue is very quick for such a virgin reggaer. Life on board is not the picnic you seem to assume K unless of course you survive your induction....I have taken your "sunk" inshult to heart and retribution will be savoured when least expected...🤔😋😉

Carpe Diem!: we are all sunk then..?? 😋

Carpe Diem!: As if.

hillmale: I represent the future of the fleet 🙂🙂🙂

Bionic Man: my helmsman's skills are ready to shine...
hillmale: ..talking of shining hullmule, thah spouting belongs where the sun don't do it. I think you will find that our venerable and courageous Captain knows talent when he sees it and is ready to make the long-awaited shake-up in the ranks which will recognise my loyalty and devotion to his attire and his standing. My new uniform is testament to my commitment and I have passed all of my helmsman's exams with flying colours. I rest my case and look forward to smirking in your direction once I receive my well acclaimed promotion. Your mention of Deka is further evidence of your miserable judgement - he's yesterday's man (see next...)

Can I be clear all decisions on promotions are only made by the senior officers of the Admiralty.
Carpe Diem! will have to prove this Helmsman skills before I can make any recommendations.
Skipper🙂

Deka: Thah wit is of the same dubious level as yuh ability as an EX-admiral. Put yuh feet up D...

Carpe Diem!: "rising Star" thas just retired.

Deka: thou hast more than overstretched thy usefulness to the Admiralty and should now step back with dignity to let a rising star show you how the job should be done

Carpe Diem!: How dare you question my command bilge boy and then insult a senior officer responsible for secret commando activities. Behaviour like this will see you scrubbing the decks for the rest of your NEW career.

Bionic Man: I am bitterly disappointed that Deka has been named as "Admiral" in your thread above. Please. please confirm that this is a sloppy error so I might take up my richly-deserved position this year. My unerring patience should now be rewarded with due haste kind, well-fettled sir and Deka consigned to the history books...😉

hillmale: thah's all hot air Hullmule...thah says that ev'ry year but I turn up ev'ry year an' impress with my distinguishness as do ma hearty boatmates. ....Ah 'ope thah's smartened thahsel' up since las' year's debacle 😋

Yes all bring swim wear in case you are to walk the plank.🙂
Please bring deck shoes or light trainers plus light cloves (bike gloves ideal) for rope duties.
No flip flops! Skipper x

Shall I bring my Day Skipper (tidal) or short range certificate, or just my snorkel in case we sink?

Bionic Man: you're a star Chris! Also more time to develop my nautical skills as befits someone who is climbing up the boat's rankings, so to speak (I'll leave that in your highly capable hands fine sir...).
