A Boat

Stricken with urgent need to go to Chertsey so here's a boat to be going on with.

  1. Chertsey - what an absurd name, I feel I must have made it up.

  2. Bryan changes tack, now lands at Scampton.

  3. on the seventeenth day of the second month—on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. And rain fell on the earth, forty minutes and forty seconds. And Noah said to God, ''You got me to build a boat for THAT! I'm 600 years old for Christ's sake!!''

  5. ''turn right at Baffin and proceed along the Northwest Passage'', is it?
    Right, as soon as we get home, Margaret, the Sat-Nav's going back to Halfords!!

  6. The riddle of the 'Mary Celeste' solved at last; the crew had simply succumbed to that irresistable urge to go to Chertsey!

  7. You won't get to Chertsey in that old tub, Bryan. Best look for an overland route...

  8. Old tub! How very ungentlemanly. She's a well-found, sturdy-looking lady with a bow just made for trouble. Steel hull? Love sails of that colour.

  9. That boat looks like it's run aground. You won't be going anywhere until the tide comes back in, just ask Cap'n Aubrey.
