Ah, that's a bit of old news, someone put it on the forum some weeks ago. They were training apparently! Been past there quite a few times since, it's gone now

And just to finish off the good kicking Phil gave you, [PEDANT MODE] It's not a RIB. It's got a squishy bottom. [/PEDANT MODE] 
I was watching them, the fire brigade, training in the Strait last week. Strangely enough they kept well away from the the Swellies.

I'm not normally a visitor to these parts, being a raggie. I put it here on the motor boat forum thinking you motorised folk could relate to it......................................

Kicking not intended, I was just saying it's been on before, behave yourself Major.
Anyway, some of my best friends are raggies, nice to see you here, Searush visits regularly.

Hi SSD,
Welcome to the North Wales unofficial Forum, where friendly teasing is only slightly less than in the lounge . . .
Errm, oh, perhaps I'm not helping after all?
Take no notice, mate, but Philliz shouldn't have given my secret away. I wouldn't want proper Raggies to know I enjoy the company of MoBo'ers.

You might think that, but I couldn't possibly comment.
Anyway, I wasn't ready to be "outed".

Naw, that's rubbish, Tom. I can't stand cabinets, all that fancy woodwork & glass panels needing cleaning. Altho I must admit I have not yet had the opportunity to study yours.
It's the drinks I like! And I keep mine in the bilges where it is nice & cool & dark - plus the weight is good & low when sailing.

On the last visit I made to PD, We had to bring our own booze.
Not to mention when we got there they where all in kip.
There was only the Magor up an about and I think he had a hangover.
