Oh John, what a beauty, what's she called? Fabulous pic too, but I'm not climbing in the rigging, I'll stay on deck if it's all the same to you:-))

I shall make sure Johnjoe will be tied to the top of it,H.bird,and Ba..in a force ten gale ! ..may an Albatross fly across his path :o)))

8 Feb, 2014

 

Homebird, you're very welcome, but you have to grow a mustache:-))
Have you been at that plucking stick again Sandra? ......you know it's bad for you:-))

8 Feb, 2014

 

It will be Ba,when Johnjoe feels it across the back of his legs,.after that photo ! Lol.

B/A, You wont have to climb the rigging up to the crows nest, that will be bloomers job, she will just have to tuck her smock into her bloomers and pull herself up the rigging to the crows nest with her plucking stick.,,,Lol

H/B, after doing that lovely painting you can come any where with us and I think a little bit of spoiling is in order for you.

I'm sooo flattered I will be promoted to a higher post,Johnjoe..but in case you aren't aware from a previous blog,a long time ago...Ba,Pam Flori,and I,have our very own uniform..of a hand knitted,all in one, Tankini..designed by Ba fashions ..designed to cover all nether regions,even the feet,as it stretches ,should we have to jump overboard,so my much loved smock will render totally useless..tucked into anything..even my string vest..which will be an asset if I need to tie a reef knot,or sheep shank.or whatever knots sailors use ..or even to tie you to the mast.!.you had better get knitting,if you want to look presentable in our company,my lad..I will lend you my plucking stick,which will double as one needle..buy your own wool ..:o)

Bloomer, will you please stop it? I'm laughing outloud and getting some very funny looks from my OH.

Seriously, Johnjoe, that is a beauty. I'd be happy to scrub her decks anytime.

9 Feb, 2014

 

Oh dear, I forgot to tell you John, I've confiscated Bloomers plucking stick (it was going to her head) and swapped it for a banana. I see you haven't been keeping up on my 'missing table' blog which has somehow changed course:-)))
Bloomer have you broken into my cabin and retrieved your plucking stick?:-(

9 Feb, 2014

 

You lot are cracking me up....
Does homegrown muck work, I'm trying to grow mine like the grandad in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang...I know one of you bright sparks will come up with his name, my brains all awash, lol...

9 Feb, 2014

 

Waddy,welcome aboard..that's just what is missing from our Motley crew...a scrubber ! Lol...erm, will you still be meeting me on Tuesday ??? x

9 Feb, 2014

 

Well,Ba..I am profoundly miffed,that you decided to confiscate my plucking stick.(.sobs with head in hands.)..how on earth can I pick up muck without a muck plucker? I can see how a banana would be flexible enough to get in the corners..and the inside of its skin,is reputed to be good as a leaf shine..but somehow,I can't see there being many Rubber plants on board..mind you,when I've finished with it,I could always make a Banoffi pie ..mmm..
Excellent news,H,bird..your moustache will be down to your chin,by the time we set sail..just watch out for birds,it's almost nesting time..:o)
..
and Linclass,forget grandad fron CCBB,no,not CBeebies..you could always go for the Uncle Albert look,from Only Fools and Horses..now there was a man with tales of life at sea ! :o)

9 Feb, 2014

 

Bloomer, it takes a past scrubber to recognise a new one lol!
See ya, Tuesday x

9 Feb, 2014

 

Ha Ha,Waddy..nice one :o) xx

9 Feb, 2014

 

You lot need more citrus to cure that cerebral scurvy. ;-)

10 Feb, 2014

 

Avast,me hearty..We are in need of a Ship's Doctor,Mouldy..you coming aboard? Captain Johnjoe would appreciate some male company..:o)Thanks for the Citrus tip..the Head and Shoulders sure didn't cure it..Lol.

10 Feb, 2014

 

I can't join the crew, Bloomer, as I gave BA what was supposed to be my last eyepatch, in an out of court settlement (least said soonest mended), but neglected to inform her I had not only a spare, like any bucanneer worth his salt has...it's also brand new.
She'll go mental, if I turned up with it.
Incidentely, you're supposed to apply the head and shoulders externally! ;-)

10 Feb, 2014

 

Mouldy me dear. You are forgiven. How noble of me, but for the crew I would make any sacrifice. Actually it's that nice Dr Laithe we require, he can leave his nasty alter ego at home. You need to go on my last blog in order to enlist:-))
John yooo hoooo where are ye? The mustaches are growing nicely I have a few spare in a heated propagator on my window sill if any one needs one:-))

10 Feb, 2014

 

Oh hecky thump,Mouldy..but I have lovely silky skin,..beauty from within. (not) ..I wondered why the lump on my head resembled a lemon,and my balaclava never fitted right..you live and learn ,eh ?

10 Feb, 2014

 

Laithe has had a face lift, BA.
If you see him tell him I want that money back that he borrowed for the surgery. ;-)

Bloomer, have you been checking the grog supplies below decks, unsupervised, again? Lol.

11 Feb, 2014

 

Just been stocktaking,Mouldy..all in order..plenty of Adam's Ale for you !.:o)

11 Feb, 2014

 

Nah, fresh orange juice.
If I have to dilute my voddie it may as well count towards my five a day. ;-)

12 Feb, 2014

 

Lucky you.I have five a day too,only it's pills ! Lol

12 Feb, 2014

 

Plus a seasickness pill, too, don't forget. Lol.

14 Feb, 2014

 

That's one I don't need,Mouldy..seasoned Sailor ,n'all that..but in a lot more comfort :o)
