[Bouba]

Happy 80th Bruce!???

I didn’t dare hazard a guess at what being old on this forum meant??

 

[BruceK]

Thank you all.
Roy I'm not sure it's the done thing on the forum even though each year you persist.

Bouba, I've survived 50 but tbh never matured past 30. Old on this forum is when you pack boating in and never before

 

[Mr Googler]

wise enough to go boating somewhere sunny and calm...unlike me and Bruce ???

 

[BruceK]

Whaddaya mean by that? People pay good money to go on fairground rides. We get it for free in spades, plus it keeps the kids calm if you give each a bucket.

'Pen Blwydd Hapus' Old Boy!
If yar wanna know what 'Old' is like
Gis a shout!

[BruceK]

I know what old is Kwackers. It's when not all of your teeth are your own. ? But at least you dont scare the kids any more.
I have a full set of me own. QED I am not old.
I hope you're going to make more of an effort to join the mob shenanigans this year. Even Roy has invested in a wetsuit and paddleboard and I hear tell he is divesting himself of his dink's outboard in favour of something that actually starts. Personally I think it's so he can continue polishing his boat's sides while at anchor which I'm all for as we can raid his funbox while imparting advice on technique and spots missed.
Oh and we need more recruits. We took some casualties last year. Some couldn't hack the Welsh Med and traded in for a quiet life.

Don't tell anyone BUT
Plans are afoot
Something I can get My teeth into
Waterborne activities such as Cruises in Company and Treasure hunts etc
Using the wonderful area we boat in
Inc the Conwy estuary and the Strait
More as The Plan developes

This treasure hunt better be buried booze and BBQ stashes or we'll lash you to the bow as a new figurehead. An uglee one.

Happy 80th Bruce!???

Bloody hell farsco he has been telling porkies about his age he said he was 70 this time

 

[BruceK]

If I was 70 and fathered those kids of mine Id be in my grave by now. Im 40 with a bit of wear and tear from them

You might be 40 waist. , I worked out we would need 28 rubber trees to make you a wet suit.

or as we say here, 40 without the summers
happy birthday anyway, and Bruce, you should really take a bit better care of them (comeon a bucket???, something more fancy's needed there!) or they may not be v.generous when choosing your nursing home...

V.

 

[BruceK]

Thank you for the birthday wish.

I'm all out of ideas Vas. They seem to like the bucket. They sure has hell squabble for possession of it when things get rough. They know better than to puke on the cockpit carpets and leaning over the side is very definitely VERBOTTEN. I suppose I could get each a bucket, but that takes up space even though they are the collapsible silicon and plastic types. I'll let Mum decide I'm just the driver here

Happy Birthday Bruce, I will say 21, but not how many times.
