| Subject: BURRIED??? | |
Author: john strange (lost) [ Edit | View ] |
Date Posted: Thursday, December 13, 05:54:17am Saw a program about an artifact dig in U.K. They found the remains of a ship in which someone had been burried, but could not say who or why. Any ideas, two warm beers and a cold pie for right answer. happy daze [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: Friday, December 07, 04:17:29pm Well!!! I've just found this site as it was recommended to me but don't think I shall be a permanent vistor. Do any of you realise that you are ex-seamen and that all the cr+p that you're spouting makes no sense at all? What's with all this arguing and over the most stupid things? That poor Brian. He has a hard enough job keeping this site going and all you can do is bicker. I was on several ships during my time and have many pleasant memories but none that I shall share on here as there will be too many people wanting to have a dig for some reason or other.

Date Posted: Friday, December 07, 04:09:39pm I remember we were in new Zealand new years eve ,we were in littlehampton and the police came into this pub and demanded all the crew from the British holly to return to the ship. We had know idea why we were in our own time ,the police said there was a bomb on the ship ans as it was a tanker we were going to be put on board and we were going to sail out of port while the holly was searched for this !bomb" we sailed and we had around 30 police on board ,they found nothing so we partied on board and that is how we celebrate the new year. we found out that the girls we had palled up with had phoned the police and they expected us to stay in the town for the new years celebrations ,it was not to be as we were a tanked all crew had to be onboard to check for the device . any body out there remember this .

Date Posted: Friday, December 07, 09:41:59am I've had a message to my personal e-mail saying that I am "rambling" and should take more water with the gin. OK I'll do that but please no more insults on my e-mail. Please keep it to where it belongs-ON HERE. Thanks to all concerned who answered my message about finding a guy from years back who was in the Merchant Navy. Also-"LIONEL" can crawl back under the stone from whence he came!! Brian-can't you get rid of that person? You remove messages that offend you and others so is it not possible to remove messages from "Lionel"? That is some character!!!

Date Posted: Tuesday, December 04, 12:07:59pm No I am not too sore after my bollockings. But you don't have to worry-nobody will knock at your door saying "hello Daddy"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That made me laugh. The merchant seaman wasn't my true love-just a really great guy that I was very fond of and had some fun times with. Anyway here we go again but this info will be posted on the wrong site-upsetting Brian AGAIN!!!- his name is Mick Watson and he was on the HMTS MONARCH back in 1966 when I met him. He'd be 60 now and will have changed I know but back then he was around 5ft 5/6inches and had sandy hair and was stockily built. He was a cable hand. Ages ago someone on the OTHER section gave me details of where I could purchase info on him-I got that info-then guess what?- my flaming laptop crashed!!! But I won't go on because I don't want to take up too much space. Thanks again Sid and Merv xxx [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: Tuesday, November 27, 03:40:07pm Just been on a cruise, we left on 3rd Nov and Southhampton council had laid on a "Firework Display and Party" for the residents, the fireworks were on a tug anchored just off the docks, the Captain took us just off the dock placed the ship beam on to the display held it there with no tugs in the tide etc for 1/2 hour. Amazing what they can do nowdays, maybe thats why there are no proper "AB's around these days no tugs, no derricks etc. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: Sunday, December 02, 08:43:38pm While walking through Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, a man came upon another man hugging a tree with his ear firmly against the tree. Seeing this he inquired, "Just out of curiosity, what the heck are you doing?" "I'm listening to the music of the tree," the other man replied. "You've gotta be kiddin' me." "No, would you like to give it a try?" Understandably curious, the man says, "Well, OK..." So he wrapped his arms around the tree and pressed his ear up against it. With this, the other guy slapped a pair of handcuffs on him, took his wallet, jewelry, car keys, then stripped him naked and left. Two hours later another nature lover strolled by, saw this bloke handcuffed to the tree stark naked, and asked, "What the heck happened to you?" He told the bloke the whole terrible story about how he got there. When he finished telling his story, the other bloke shook his head in sympathy, walked around behind him, kissed him gently behind the ear and said, "This just ain't gonna be your day, cupcake..."

OK OK OK-I have learned my lesson and will be a good girl from now on. Shit-I'm 61-had a good life (which I hope won't stop)-had a Merchant Seaman boyfriend back in the mid 60's ( who I am still trying to find ) and want to stay happy. Now I guess I supposed to tell a joke or be funny? Sorry-that will have to wait until I've calmed down!! [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
