moored outside the Prince Madoc, large research vessel and recognised mooring, at the crack of 10am Saturday, knock, knock, knock, knock. Out of bed and "what do you want", told, we want to talk to you. Time wasters I thought, advised "I'm not dressed" & ignored them. Anyway it went on a bit, eventually after knock, knock, whilst I was trying to get dressed, went out & they had disappeared. Got wet in the rain & they eventually came back with knock, knock. We NEED to bring a boat here in 2 hours. & I must be understand being moored outside another boat that I/we already had asking something of another boat, so I should be accepting of the boat arriving in 2 hours. "If you were on your own berth we would not bother you".

The boat arriving in 2 hours time, no problem, problem is the Tw@ts going on about it 2 hours before it arrived. Basically they were just trying to get rid of us. By a French accented git.

Ah feel better for that.
 
get a microphone on the loud hailer, and ask Henry to practise a few growls, and shout "for God's sake, Haydn, don't let the dog out, he's not been fed yet."
 
You could always ask them if they are the registered berth holder, and do they have documentation to prove it........if not, drop anchor and use the dinghy.
Some people just try it on.
 
To transulate. Bloke banging on roof, Wife screeming had pride of place, a yacht trainer no doubt. Like piss off I want to come here.

Ive found yacht trainers to be the lowest of the land, Just scum .I hope thats not all of them.
 
I know what you mean about Yacht instructors. It reminds me of a time we chartered a yacht in the Solent. Because none of us crew were qualified we hired a skipper to keep an eye on us and to hopefully learn a thing or two. The Friday night we bedded down, he decided to go clubbing. The next day he was good for nothing and slept most of it, leaving us to sail around the solent in a F5 going 6. On the Sunday SWMBO threatened to ram the kettle up one of his orifices if he shouted at her to put the kettle on one more time.

He was an odd chap, perhaps they're not all like that.

Couldn't agree more. Scruffy trainers are always an indication of a lower form of life. A good pair of well-polished deck shoes, that's what you want!

How big was the boat that was coming in........ if it was another research vessel and bigger than Mucky then it would be prudent to shuffle up.

Now about the French accent..........always been a sucker for that, was she good looking...... not that it would really matter. :)

they, man and woman, both with French accents, we NEED to bring a visiting boat here, so why weren't they on it themselves ?? they were probably bringing in a training boat. They were so, so persistent you would not believe it.

Nothing to do with the Prince Madoc, or anything they knew about. Just 2 tw@ts trying to get rid of us.
