USELESS

[byron]

I was once told that the two most useless things on a Yacht is a Wheelbarrow and a Royal Navy Officer. I agree with the former but only partially agree with the latter, I once knew a young Officer who made excellent coffee.

I think a wheelbarrow would come in useful on this forum at times

However wheelbarrows are very useful on cross channel ferries! When I was a deck boy on Townsend Thoresen Free Enterprise ll, summer job many years ago, I discovered if I carried foot passengers luggage they gave me money. I borrowed a wheelbarrow and my income shot up dramatically. Those were the days!

Re: USELESS ???

If it weren't for the wheel barrow, how is the crew supposed to get me back on board from the pub?

I do believe theres a couple of young officers looking for a job right now, after some incident or another down south, involving rocks and frigates?
