Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Saturday. Everything is wet, but it's stopped raining at the moment. No doubt it will start when I go out, some substantial shopping to be done today, if I can find what I want.
Have a happy day everyone.

Good morning Captain. I'm home but you'll see from my new thread, not right yet, just hope to get better here.

[waterboatman]

Morning TL. I've just read your report. It's not good reading, but our hospital staff are doing a grand job under the circumstances. There is a shortage of nurses of around 50,000 I think is the figure.

Its good to be back aboard the good ship Early Bird and hope for calmer waters :-)

[waterboatman]

It's good to have you back. :o}

[waterboatman]

Where is everyone?

[Theland]

I'll ring the ships bell :-)

[Theland]

Lots of zzzzzzzzz coming from the crews quarters :-)

[waterboatman]

They were in the canteen last night. Empty cans and bottles all over the place.

[Theland]

Ah yes! Saturday morning hangover! Ships rum :-)

[waterboatman]

Undiluted. Wicked stuff! ]hic

[Theland]

McMintys soup should be good today.

[Theland]

Spamberg alert!

[waterboatman]

Got them. Ta. :o}

[Theland]

You're a mean shot with that 'ammer Captain :-)

[waterboatman]

Something like that.

[Theland]

I need some zzzzzz myself. And of course need to knot a few ropes.
(Test track trace hands and face, repeat forty times before climbing into hammock - mutter mutter mutter mutter)
Speak later :-)

[waterboatman]
