Things said to YM examiner

[jimi]

During my YM exam I was asked what 7 short hoots meant. My response was "F#@k off! I'm turning to port!" The examiner then had a fit of the giggles, don't think he had really recovered from the "Have you a medical condition or do you always stand like that?"

And no looking up ... Could it be a pilot vessel operating astern propulsion? A pilot vessel in underway not making way in fog turning to starboard .. the possibilities are endless ..

Re: seven toots

Absolutely right .. the five toots signal is at least 5 toots so it could be more than 5!

How did you know about the suspenders? You aren't one of these hackers that defrauded over 53,000 brits of £1.2bn last year are you?

You don't fool me with all that talk of tugs not under command.
