Chentleman's Cruise 2005

Re: Chentleman\'s Cruise 2005

No not really - there just seem to be a couple of them each day and its handy for Para as he doesn't have to go down too steep an incline to get onto the boat then. It also coincides with his morning ablutions and we really could do with those taking place ashore
 
Re: Keys

Thanks for the advice. The boat comes with a built in conservatory/greenhouse so we should merge with the crowd. The diet sounds interesting, cauliflowers and supermarket mackrel, is this recommended fare for west coast sailing? Might just stick with barley and wheat based products.

Re: Keys

If this diet doesn't suite you never fear.. if you donate them to the Good Ship Claymore you will I think earn many browny points and preferential treatment by the commodore... These items will probably make for a slightly more peacable atmosphere aboard Claymore.. Oh another thing bring a torch and a map (no not a chart) as there was a reported incident of late night rambling.

Thank you Long John for the PM about this thread - I'd missed it while away on my travels.

Sounds good and would like to be there. However, having had her bottom scraped prior to re-epoxification, Shard is still registering 17 on Ardrossan Roger's soggyboatmeter, so it sounds as though she'll be still be drying out by that time.

I'll sit tearfully by the shore while you all sail off.
 
Re: Chentleman\'s Cruise 2005

There could be room - i think if we sort out expressions of interest first then see who has a boat and then divvie oot the crews?
 
I\'ll never again refer to Claysie\'s pink fluffy slippers!

That would be much appreciated. On the social/political front, being a household committed to moving towards equal opportunites, how do I break the news of a chentleman's effent to Mrs Sgeir?

I won't get away with "I'm chust away to Ardrossan for a few days to redo the deck fittings".

Any suggestions?

Give her £1000 and tell her to have a girly week end in New York

Aye yer richt .. didnae get much change oot o' a K fur that bit o diplomacy .. ah'm tuffer noo
 
Re: I\'ll never again refer to Claysie\'s pink fluffy slippers!

I have some pink fluffy slippers if you wish to borrow them....

Plus having realised I have made a pigs ear of my 2005 diary I think I may be around for the 29th if of course you will accept my late entry for this event.. It aint half going to be chilly on Seun tho.. If of course I can get the deck fittings water tight... otherwise will be a case of very wet bunks urrgghh.. If so I could offer a bunk (preferably dry) to someone who is short of a worthy craft.. bearing in mind there is zero head room and apart from full length bunks not much else!
 
Re: I\'ll never again refer to Claysie\'s pink fluffy slippers!

Ah'm a dreadfull bodger and never been a blacksmith ... does that make me short of a worthy craft?

I cannot use "The coalman's horse bolted and tipped its load over the tram points so I'll be a bit late. About four days." Cos I've already done that one. Mind you, it was a while ago, but the teacher didn't believe it either.
 
Re: Worthiness...

I can hardly speak .. Seun at the moment is most uninviting...

Are you and Mrs Jimi chartering from Dunstaffnage again?

Re: Worthiness...

How so...? Was assuming the Noble Craft Glen Rosa would be preped for major voyage to Southern Ireland down on the Souf Coast..
 
Re: Worthiness...

erm yes .. however Claysie has declared Mrs Jimi not to be a chentleman and therefor ineligible fur ra cruise plus she thinks itll be too cold and wet based on the laws of probability
 
Re: Worthiness...

How comes I'm OK and Mrs Jimi isnae.. Have to say that I am inclined to agree with Mrs Jimi too.... have feeling that Seun will be cold and wet too....
