EX-cuse me

The pheasant-killer was at work. Keeping the economy of Pompey going.

But the Last of The Summer Winos were up to no good. I didn't know they were into harpooning though

We were discussing the fiscal economy, and what effect it might have on global warming.. Plus there might have been one or two reference's regarding the barmaid, tho I wouldn't have been involved in those..

I nearly said 'wotever floats yer boat' but it's a bit too near the (low water) mark

Anyway these mid-week cruises are a great idea. Cap'n Halliday is planning a venture out in Costa Del Solenta with you all quite soon.
