I think I might have a terrrrrrrrible confession to make... just I don't know how to put it words... do I have the courage and risk Scuttlebutters flak????

Hope you had a fun Christmas and NY

 

[Clive_Rigden]

Oh! DO tell . . .

 

[jimi]

You gort a MacGreggor for Xmas!!!!

 

[Ohdrat]

It hasn't happened yet

 

[tcm]

[jimi]

Aha .. is the happy event due in September?

 

[Clive_Rigden]

Fine - but it doesn't tell me what's been occuring . . .

 

[Ohdrat]

much worser... even worser than TCM's poll option....

 

[jimi]

Must be getting married then .. tough luck. You know in this day and age you can give birth to triplets without being married?

Jimi has found religion and lost his marbles (again)

The forum went through a brief Morse Code frenzy

Hardly anyone has had an argument about AWBs versus traditional design

Everybody has moaned about the new forum software

There hasn't been a "Blasted stinkies and their wash" posting for weeks (but everybody's out of the water)

Several Antipodeans have posted smug comments about the weather in their part of the world. The lynch mob departs on Friday

tome has discovered that, when you're moored up, size really matters


I think that's about it. How about you? Is your yacht safely ensconced in the Beaulieu River yet, or is she still marooned in the mystic Orient? /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

You missed:

Comprehensive detail of Pauline's sailing wardrobe...

A varied quantity of abuse aimed at Jimi

A minor concern over the comfort or otherwise of sailing shoes...

Several major forays into poetry... usually (but not always) sailing related, and generally decidedly average..

More abuse aimed at Jimi

A significant quantity of Friday funnies, usually on a Wednesday or Thursday....

Detailed advice on rigging babystays, emergency forestays, stays and more stays...

Abuse aimed at Jimi

You've seen the light, and are going to buy a motorboat, and spend the summer badgering the raggies by pretending you don't know colregs and whizzing past them at high speed generating huge wash??????

 

[beancounter]

Worse than that - she's buying a caravan...

Stavano ancora parlando al popolo, quando sopraggiunsero i sacerdoti, il capitano del tempio e i sadducei,

irritati per il fatto che essi insegnavano al popolo e annunziavano in Gesù la risurrezione dai morti

<font color="white"> O Christ! Whose voice the waters heard
And hushed their raging at Thy word,
Who walked'st on the foaming deep,
And calm amidst its rage didst sleep;
Oh, hear us when we cry to Thee,
For those in peril on the sea!
