Nope, I am stone cold sober which is a real disappointment after 6 pints of cider and am about to walk home from the pub with my defrosted shopping (could you point out the word WALK to Bernie in case he misses it )
And just to make myself feel good I left all my extra-large jeans oin the chairty shop today and ordered more slim ones from someones tax return money


And Bernie, FFS get your arse over here, its 9pm on a Saturday night and I am the only one in the flipping pub! What is it with this place :scaredhair

They aren't stupid are they!! Mind you its a bit insulting to think that only the young nubile ones would cause ----errrr------ liaisons on board! Surely after a few months at sea even us old dogs would be in with a chance?

Yup but that's what bootnecks are for, keeping us married men safe from their evil intentions

This came up when they first went to sea and some wives were up in arms.
One was in the SUN as her hubby had left her for a WREN, claiming they were all gorgeous floozies The wren in question was a dog and we recognised the wife as my mate Charlie had pulled her the night before

Remember, Wrens are only attractive outside the 12 mile limit/breakwater
