Having come over to M.B a couple of times, Basicly to take the mick,
But having noticed what decent and respectable peaple you really are,
I sincerly apoligise, And would like to stay if will have me here,
Promise never to bring up the subject of sails or col-regs or any other serious
topic,Which brings me onto the next matter,Serious stuff now! Sorry
CHOCCY BISCUITS.
Totally addicted to them, Don't care what they are,As long as they are covered
in chocolate, It all started last winter, When out shopping with my good lady
noticed,Buy one get one free ad. Good idea I said to get some in for the summer
on board the boat,Bought half a dozen packs,Started storing them on board so they would'nt get eaten,Trouble was every time went shopping bought more,
Different makes different fillings,Just kept throwing them in the locker,Come summer,Hundreds of them, Decided to put a good selection in a box,With in reach of the cockpit,Absolutely fatal,Could'nt pass without grabbing some,Come dinner time,make a sandwich,no,Just grab another handful of biccy's,Even the dog drools at the sight of them,Is there a cure? Does anyone else suffer this addiction? If so ,what do you with the wrappers when at sea? Do you roll them into little balls and flick them over the side where by anyone comming up astern ,Think's its a paper chase .Or do you stuff them in your pocket,count them up at he end of the day,And promptly sit down in shock, The boat is laid up now, All the choccy biscuits are gone, How are the dog and I going to manage?
I can feel myself sinking into the depths of depression,All advice gratefully
accepted.
Mike

When you get as fat as me from eating chocolate cookies you are welcome to borrow my Blazers, Cravats and Dinner Suits. I have them by the Cargo Ship Hold full in various sizes ranging from Bulky, Fat, Fatter, Bleedin' 'ell and strewth.
Incidentally... welcome to the Forum of the lost souls /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

Chocolates: Serious subject

eating them is what makes them hear develop the need for b***** great engines.

Secondary suggestion , another fridge for Med, prevents melting behaviour and unsightly stains on white shorts... ( or excellent excuse depending upon age)

...I wanna boat please..

Re: Chocolates: Serious subject

Au contraire.
My widening girth means that I can no longer negotiate the pipes and manifolds in the lower regions and have to rely on strings from above.

Some rules of forum

Welcome Mike. I understand the choc biccy problem. I manage it by restricting myself to plain choc, not milk or white. That cuts intake by 67%. You are allowed to mention raggie/sailing stuff on here now and again (I think) as several of us are ragflappers as well as stinkies. Just avoid saying in massive detail how to rig a gybe preventer, or other PBO type dull stuff. Colregs, in the context of raggies failing to observe them, is an OK subject now and again. Certain detailed subjects, like toilets, are the preserve of specialist contributors (suitably qualified) hereabouts

AAH, SOLES. Sounds as if, like me, you have lost yours to the demon choccy biscuit. If you ever meet up with any of the loonies on this forum take a sneaky peek for tell tale signs of choccy bic crumbs around the gob or back of the hand (where we've wiped our gob), or brownish smudges on lapells.
Your not alone Mikey, I once saw a whole packet of McVities chocolate covered wholemeals fall out from between Byron's chins!
Welcome aboard.

Thanks for the rules and the welcome.
Shame about the toilet humour thou,
I don't profess to be an expert in this field,
But have dumped on a few in my time,
It ought to be rule No.1!
Cannot become full member unless able to spout s--t ,
When called upon to do so!

Hey Syd, you were the one that stored them in between my chins... you said they melted when stored in your panties and you were getting a bad reputation because of it.
