Oh dear, there's an infection running though RIBnetters.

Congratulations Pete on your new purchase, dose that mean that your Ribbing days are over now that you have an Old Spice II

Pete

1) Congratulatins on a safe delivery of Viviennes Xmas Pressie.

2) Is Old Mice I still getting a Port-a-Loo fitted?

3) Welcome to real fuel prices.

4) Will the brolly fit under that awning?

5) Has it got a freezer?

6) How long before you plan to fit a new console, tow bar, bow thruster or re-deck her?

7) When will The Jackeens stop laughing?

8) Can you live with out the carbon cloud?

absolutely, providing some of them 'orrible little rubber boats don't to get in the way, and what about the smog coming out the back of them? awful. How do they keep Pimms cold ? , disposable BBQs and warm tinned beer, poor things.

Mark, its not for using, we are going to sit in the marina every weekend watching all the other boat owners sitting on there boats every weekend watching....... but don't worry its always entertaining watching peeps launch those little rubber boats at the slipway. I know our valuable comments to assist them will always be gratefully received

Pete

Mark if your offering, there is the small matter of the marine loo. It doesn't quite work at the moment. Being a former Yachtie you must have come across the problem before. So what happens when you take a loo apart after someone has pumped it like mad, only to find it didn't clear

It could be a full drysuit jobbie

Pete
Are your sea cocks open when flushing
Is it flushed via the freshwater tank
none of these get the suit on nipper

A useful sign to have above the loo

Only stuff eaten or drunk to be put in the loo.

Hahahahaha

Now where's Customs when you need 'em?

Dodgy-looking peeps importing from the wilds of Brixham! Probably had a job-lot of clotted cream on board.

Viv, we always thought you had good taste.
(Pete must've slipped through the net.)

Anyone notice 'Old Smokey' on E Bay yet?

Old yottie saying. "You block it, you clear it."
Experience with new born babies helps keep you lunch down during the experiance.

Marine loos never work. They are to be avoided like the plague. Tim is quite right, nothing down there that you aint ate. Get a nappy bucket for the loo paper.
Infact use the nappy bucket instead of the loo. The old 'bucket and chuck it' method never fails.

The only one I have ever met that worked at all was called a Lavac. It had an air tight seal on the seat and lid and a Henderson Mk5 bilge pump to evacuate it. Had many hours of fun with new crew. When asked how it worked, they were told to close the inlet, open the outlet and give 5 good pumps and then close the outlet. It could take anything up to a week for the vacuum to break before you could lift the lid.

The ones with the silly little handle and a lever for pump and flush should only be used for liquids, so I recommend a diet of hot curry and prunes for 3 days before departure.
