Re: Oh dear

was good.
obviously no boat so not my ideal ( that is in 5 weeks) but lots of food wine and sex which was okay by me. Lou tends to get a bit tired hauling ropes and it makes her hands coarse so that front was very much improved.


the opera was stunning in a women wailing sort of way.
the hotel was stunning in a hot and cold running staff kind of way

Re: Oh dear

cardiff
oh Cardiff

well i tootled down to the outskirts and duly rang up wakeup who agreed to pick me up frommy hotel and kindly warned me where the speed cameras where.
As i was trying to check in he duly arrived so i thought bugger this waiting for the desk girl to get off the phone guiding me mates in and hopped off with wakeup.

Outside was a smart car with an even smarter lady inside. A dark haired stunner of exquisite beauty who he laughingly palmed of as his wife. She must have been busy for the boat show weekend but imagine it wqas a slow tuesday in June so she was avialable at short notice.

The lady in question nagged him and ignored his directions like a real wife and even managed to cobbble together a convincing story about their wedding day.

We went to the sea front and had some beer. then to a fantastic restaraunt for more beer, some wine and some food. All superb. Had an ace time. No boating . but the weather was looking threatening all the time and i did not fancy a soaking. much more fun in the pub. plus i got dropped off back at the hotel.
only problem was i went to track my colleagues down in a bar in the centre.Both were very pissed, one had managed to pull. My boss had my room key and so i ended up drinking the night aweay and kipping in the car.

so my last weekend and last night out were with forumites.

if the story is to be beilieved and that WAS wakeup's wife he is a man of taste and decency
she is obviously as mad as a bucket of monkeys

Re: cardiff

Shit faced doesn't quite cover it, by the police records, you were totally paraplegic, a stretcher case almost, you apparently had four legs and couldn't control any of them, thats what the report of the video says anyway! Excellent bits of kit those low light surveillance cameras.

Re: aah

that was my colleague i was helping
he had gone straight out to the pub and started speed drinking stella
i helped him to a kebab shop and also got him back to the hotel
he has no recollection of this kindness
i am glad there is video proof.

Re: aah

If you got him back to the hotel, how come you had to sleep in the car and lets not use the old "somebdoy else had the key ploy", please! who do you think you're dealing with, this is the forum inquisition!! I don't have to get the physcological thumbscrews out, now do I? Somewhere in that guinness soaked brain there must be a glimmer of recollection!

It's all right we have that on video aswell, I was going to use that later, when he denies all knowledge!

Welsh Hospitality?

Was this REALLY the best way to introduce SWMBO to this forum? Thought she had a pathological 'fear' of internet nutters as it is. I suppose you could have got away with claiming That Husband of Mrs Sailworse (aka The Saint) was a raggie and just used in exemplum of what can happen if you don't keep motors on board.

I hope you cleared up the city after him.

TCM _ I got married in Cardiff once , well in Ribena ( Rhiwbina) actually. Everyone should try it once in Cardiff. Not the same place now as in seventies when a good night out included mandatory trip down The Docks (where I used to work)all very clean and proper, .....and afternoons off work on Weston paddle steamer ( Reardon line?) ... getting hammered.

I had a Hurley 22 once called 'Ignis Fatuus'.
Apparently it means 'Will o' the wisp' but an awful lot of peeps seemed to say 'eh?'

Re: Welsh Hospitality?

You're right I used Sailbad as an exemplar of what could happen if she ever thought about going raggie, i'd start to talk scouse, drink lots of guiness (ale) and wear shelleys and trainees.
