Straw Markets and Beaches
How much longer before we reach our destination? I feel the need, the need for some shopping, sunshine and the odd Pina Colada.

If the wind doesn't freshen soon, it will be "out sweeps" next.
Mr McC, please see that your best oarsmen are ready when needed. If we don't have any sweeps, do we have a big yuloh to rig at the stern? Any Chinese cutouts? |

Can I be of any assistance Butterfly? Rowing is a favourite activity of mine.

Fear not, oh ye of little faith! Have ye not remembered the lead lined box on the Monkey Island? We can bypass the Black Bush header tank and feed that liquid through the Uranium 238 rods in the box. Fed to the engines it should improve our efficiency to the point where Sir William will not need his launch to go waterskiing on bare feet. Fed to the boiler, we can quardruple our production of whisky for the next 36 million years.

Injuns are in fine fettle if any water skiing is required, I on the other hand shall relax with a good book.... "The Boys Own Book of Screws and Lubrication Orifices"

Tom, you are a great man and I appreciate your thoughts, but your short term-ism is a worry.

Think I might have missed something ES? Can you translate for me please? It looks a little Gaelic to me but, of course, I have been known to be wrong, sometimes.

All fast and FWE at the pre-booked cruise ship berth in downtown Nassau. Short walk to town, or short swim to Paradise Island. (Short walk across the bridge.) Time for post trip de-briefing on the pool deck.

Well there is a bar in Batam that I have been to - Lucy's Oar House!
It is well known in the offshore business where one can drop in and have a pull at the oars and (if one is not careful) end up being the cox for a pulling pair! This was of course in my past before I was appointed to responsible positions (such as Master at Arms on the GD). In my new, responsible role however I feel that it is incumbent upon me to venture ashore and check out the local establishments to ensure that I can provide a list of safe and suitable bars. Now I know that there is a beach trip going on and indeed a shopping trip, but if anyone else wants to help me in my duties to check out suitable bars, please let me knoe. Meet you for a livener in the bar before we undertake this difficult task. McC |

Absolutely, much discussion and plotting, I mean planning to be done.
Such as who is going to debrief Red17 before she shares a beach towel with Engine S? One has to be so careful with one's choice of words, doesn't one? |
#2573

I think two of us should be just as careful.

Until informed otherwise ES and I will meet up at the beach and discuss the aforementioned differences in the Gaelic Languages. Isn't that right ES?

A bit further along theres a private beach we can use. We can swim without the restriction of swim suits, the wonderful fresh air feeling. cant beat it.
