10/24/2009 Bash On the Boat (I'm with B.O.B.) -Thread #6

[GOS]

Back home (Louisiana, not Alabama--we've got all the same toothless wonders and village idiots, but we've got better food. .) we use "sot" as another name for a drunkard.....

So everytime Heather calls Rick a Grumpy Old Sod, I think of him guzzeling (sp?) beer. I giggled to myself when I saw him at the beer tasting. If he saw me, he probably thought I was crazy.

Don't worry...he was probably drunk and didn't notice.

 

[GOS]

What kind of business trip?

Inquiring minds want to know.

He won't answer Jeff...he is so elusive.

 

[GOS]

Jeff it's s a freebie mate,i was going to have drive 6/7 hours and after yesterday's drive so i rang a mate and he helped me out....

I'd like a mate like that.

 

[GOS]

Good morning Heather

Is it sunny or did Andy steal your sun too?

Nope....he stole it and swapt it for RAIN

A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in their
bed.

She puts on her robe and goes downstairs to look for him.

She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee in
front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall.

She watches as he wiped a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee.
'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps into the room, 'Why
are
you down here at this time of night?'

The husband looks up from is coffee, 'Do you remember 20 years ago when we
were dating, and you were only 16?' he asks solemnly.

The wife is touched to tears thinking that her husband is so caring and
sensitive. 'Yes I do,' she replies.

The husband paused. The words were not coming easily. 'Do you remember
when your father caught us in the back seat of my car making love?'

'Yes, I remember,' said the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside
him.

The husband continued. 'Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my
face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I will send you to jail
for
20 years?'

'I remember that too' she replied softly.







He wiped another tear from his cheek and said......'I would have gotten out
today.'

A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him. The Waitress asks for their orders. The man says, "A hamburger, fries and a Coke," and turns to the ostrich, "What's yours?" "I'll have the same," says the ostrich.

A short time later the waitress returns with the order. "That will be
£9.40 please," she says and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact amount for payment.

The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man says, "A Hamburger, fries, and a coke." The ostrich says, "I'll have the same." Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact amount.

For a while this becomes routine until the two enter again later in the
week. "The usual?" asks the waitress.

"No, this time it's a treat, so I will have a steak, baked potato, and
salad," says the man. "Yep! Same," says the ostrich. Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, "That will be £32.62." Once again the man pulls the exact amount out of his pocket and places it on the table.

The waitress can't hold back her curiosity any longer. "Excuse me, sir..
How do you manage to always come up with the exact money from your pocket every time?"

"Well," says the man, "several years ago I was clearing the attic and
found an old lamp. When I rubbed it a Genie appeared and offered me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything, I would just put my hand in my pocket and the right amount of money would Always be there."

"That's brilliant!" says the waitress. "Most people would wish for a
couple of million pounds or something, but you'll always be as rich as you want for as long as you live!"

"That's right. Whether it's a pint of milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact
money is always there," says the man.

The waitress asks, "But, sir, what's with the ostrich?"

The man sighs, pauses, and replies, "My second wish was for a tall bird
with a big **** and long legs who agrees with everything I say."

Good morning Andy - have you got my sunshine by any chance?

 

[Verandah Man]

Good morning people

Andy - where did you put my sunshine? - did you steal it while I was sleeping? Its cloudy today - my one day where I DONT have to stay in for deliveries or backdoors and the blooming clouds have arrived and scuppered my plans for sunbathing by the gym pool

That means I might have to work out instead

We have a lot of clouds here this morning as well, with a chance of showers..........

I'm dissing when I should be putting down weed barrier and mulch, or at least I should be in the gym .......I'm doing neither

 

[CRSNDSNY]

Happy Thursday everyone!​

 

[CRSNDSNY]

Well, since Big Red lives in Mike's mind (kinda like a split personality), it would be Mike performing. And we all know what that looks like in a bra and lipstick.

I think you'll win hands down Melody.

 

[CRSNDSNY]

You are limited to 10 hours before you get on the ship and then depending how many kids they have and how booked up they are you can add additional hours. We added 4 extra hours when we boarded and they said if we wanted more than that we would have to be waitlisted.

We picked her up early on two nights (but they still charged us the min 2 hours) and then on Friday night we called them at dinner time and asked them if they had room for her so we could watch the farewell show and they said no problem. They did a great job, I didn't mind paying the $6 per hour


Night all, off to watch some reality tv

We had two scheduled slots for Amelia and Ernie so it was $11/hour. One of the times my sister picked Ernie up early but they still charged us for both kids for the two hours.

We were able to get Amelia in on the last night during dinner at the very last minute after a waitlist. We kept Ernie with us that evening at dinner.

 

[CRSNDSNY]

Melody how about I put you on the "maybe" list and you'll have up to 6 weeks before the cruise to get it all figured out and get them your deposit. You would want 1 room?

Melody (2 adults, 2 children 1 room)

If it's not too much trouble, that'd be great.
Thanks!

 

[CRSNDSNY]

Maybe I saw you guys in the parks and didn't even know it

You probably did! The day we got off the ship, we checked into SSR and were able to make it briefly to all 4 parks. LOL
