I'm gladdened because one of my contributions made it into the Yachting Monthly Scuttlebutt "highlights" /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I think you're wonderful as well. No doubt your contribution was a timeless piece of literary endeavour.

Why thank you Chris, my already bright and wonderful day has just got even happier. I may celebrate with a portion of mushy peas with my fish and chips.

Aah. I feel the flush of happiness too. May your mushy peas be devoid of all lumps.

Jimi, may i say what sweetness and light you bring to this forum, for it would be dark without your Dali'esque observations and wittisisms!

Hello chaps!
jimi and Co.
What fine fellows You all are.
Such prose
Such praise
Such eloquance
Such Scuttling good stuff.
However Chaps ,You must try and be a bit more Gladdened.
As I type it is Saddened 21 ish and Gladdened 18 inc this one
Can't be having that now .
Next Happie Chappie please.
Oh! and thank You so kindly Jimi.
"Persipacity" I have learned a new word Today.
Shall have to practice with it.
After several knudgers I might struggle with it.
"Knudgers", might be a new word for someone else?
Derived from "Knuckle and "nudge".
When asked "What are You having"?
One may reply "Cheers I,ll have a Knudger"
So that's a measure the depth of which is about equall to three knuckles worth.
About three nudges of the Optic, maybe four depending on Knuckle size and Optic dispencing volume.
Not really good form to request a Large Knudger.
That could sometimes lead to Knuckles being used for another purpose
