hiya,
There you go Dave would-be members wishing to pay their forum subs via the
Broon Ale system means if you accept the post of forum treasurer there could
be indefinite supplies of the stuff winging it’s way in your direction, of course
it all depends on the number of crackpots er punters who want to be involved
for that method to be profitable, don’t dig your glass out just yet.
thanks harry, long retired.
I am quite willing to be the treasurer of your fan club Harry. All would be members just send the Brown Ale in to claim membership of this exclusive club.
Cheers Dave.
Where is Bewick? 
Found him on roping & sheeting. 
I think hes been very busy roping-down and sheeting of every bench seat, pub tables/chairs , and old bingo dears` on the Promenade
in Morecambe before the severe storms . 
Well ,…he must have done a splendid job , because no storm damage was reported in Morecambe. 
Tin hat ready ,…and retreating to (sand ) bunker .
Cheers , Anon.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the old lothario (google it 
) is still recovering after wining and dining with his lady on Valentines day
Mr.Webb is refusing to pay the £50 annual toilet tax on the IOM,so he’s now “slopping out” every morning from now on,don’t ask where he slings it though Anon 1.
He was on Pointless the other night, did anyone see him ?
Cheers Dave.
hiya,
There’s a quiz programme on one of the tele channels called “Tipping Point”
my missus likes to watch this while I have a fiddle with the computer, but I
noticed one question regarding seamanship well as one or two on here
know I have a tiny bit of nautical knowledge, one question to a young fellah’
was “what do call the line around the hull of a ship” the options were slipper,
plimsoll or shoe now for just about everybody (except my wife) the answer is
of course plimsoll line the young fellah’ mi’ lad answered “slipper” OK that is
fair enough I don’t suppose everybody in the world would know and of course
he got it wrong, there’s a punchline here though the guy in question had just
served three years in the Royal Navy, why should Britain tremble.
thanks harry, long retired.

hiya,
He most likely did Kev I never once searched for it, OR entered the barrel.
thanks harry, long retired.
There is a book called " Why Should Britain Tremble " - A Submariner’s Tale, which can be bought on Amazon Harry.
Cheers Dave.
Harry I have just had sardines on toast, will that make me a mariner 
that makes you a hero norman . sardines ….ugh , nasty "orrible things , i would sooner eat my own boots .
Eat sardines and live near a lighthouse Norm, hardly a master mariner. You could join the sea scouts, as the sea is getting closer each year, after all the flooding.
Cheers Dave.

Hiya,
No Norm you’ve got to board the trawler and catch your sardines before you
can term yourself any sort of a mariner but if you’ve any sense and at you’re
time of life you’ll remain a landlubber and buy your fish from Tesco’s, .
thanks harry, long retired.

Us poor pensioners cannot afford Tesco’s prices, Aldi’s, Netto’s, and Lidl’s, the poor shop my son calls them. Before Asda gobbled up Netto’s a few years ago I pick up 6 litre bottles of Irish Mist to keep my wife happy at £10 per bottle, down to the last bottle, is my wife a alcoholic, I get given a drop when I have a cold, I think she don’t like my coughing.

With all your mechanical knowledge Norm, you could easily construct a still behind your shed and brew some moonshine. Be even cheaper than the poor shop.
Cheers Dave.

hiya,
There you go Norm, you’re good lady being of Irish extraction will have the know-how
to knock a drop of poteen up I’ve tasted a drop or two of the stuff in the past and it’s
very palatable but can be very potent and can knock you bowlegged very quickly.
thanks harry, long retired.
