Finish work at Lunchtime today so my forum time will be strictly limited once I become ensnared in Dear Heart's christmas clutches
Thank you for your company over the past 12 months.
Have a Happy and Peaceful Christmas and the finest of New Year's


regards
Claymore

Re: Season\'s Greetings

As we used to say in the Army " If you can't take a joke you shouldn't have joined!"

But seriously, many thanks for keeping an eye on us all in 2002, and I hope that you will be there for us in 2003 as well. Merry Christmas.

Love your logo, but in the light of recent events (Prestige, Kariba/Tricolour/Nicola) all I can say is "If Only...."

Mining's scat
Fishing's scat
Ah! Well, back to wrecking

Re: Season\'s Greetings

Which installation are you on?...

I'll ensure a prompt response when the cook burns the xmas turkey and starts a GPA.

Safer lives, safer ships, cleaner seas.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Claymore. Indeed to any of you reading this thread.

I'll be out in (in, I mean "on" I hope!) the Solent on Monday - if anybody wanted to call me up on VHF.

Re: Season\'s Greetings from the Lord Chief Justice

I do like the 'present' your Lord Chief Justice as just given you all in the UK.
(Times 20-12-02) "Dont Jail Burglars" hes told his judges. Give them 'community service' ie free in the community to 'case' their next job(s) or just carry on, now with a day job?
Has His Lordship lives with security staff, so he is unlike to be burgled. So he as no worries. So its a 'Happy Christmas' for burglars. You lesser mortals can put up with the tormour.

Re: Season\'s Greetings

Thats the problem, no bloody turkey in Norway, smoked sheeps head and boiled cod! Ekofisk by the way!! We may even get smoked sheeps ribs and boiled belly pork again! It used to be wonderful food out here, but I'm afraid that is long gone now.

Re: Season\'s Greetings from the Lord Chief Justice

I hate to think that I might be being a bit prissy (Or ignorant), but what is "tormour?"

Whilst I'm in the business of stiring your stumps; What has the contradictory burbling of the Lord Chief Justice got to do with having a good time at Xmas or next year and what has his latest burbling got to do with sailing???

(I think his lordship is contradictory because it wasn't long ago that he was ranting about jailing every young a**hole that robs a person of a mobile phone.)

Re: Season\'s Greetings

Talking about turkeys :

A young wife called a newspaper office and asked for the food editor.
"Would you please help me?" she asked. "I bought a nine-pound turkey. Could you tell me how long to cook it in my new microwave?"
"Just a minute," the food editor said, as he turned to check his reference book.
"Oh, thank you," she said. "You've been a big help. Good-bye!"

Merry Christmas everybody. For us its Scotland and Ireland by boat ....(Stena).

To HMCG Could you warn people who are sailing in the fog north from the Scilly Islands ( in a submarine exercise zone moreover) that the cannon fire they hear is in fact Concorde.... It would save some embarrassing VHF calls. like mine...
