Missus calves the turkey, as apparently, I to it too thick..
Really, Spoon? That would be quite a sight!

Anyway, have a great day, all of you!

Best present was a £100 screwfix voucher from my daughter...she's a star!

Dinner for us is:

Smoked salmon, caviar and Cava

Beef Wellington with sprouts and Yorkshire puddings and gravy

Chocolate mousse and brandy

(We had the pigs in blankets for breakfast, with scrambled eggs and Prosecco)

Thus, a cold starter
a pause...
hot main
a pause...
cold dessert

Dishes done between courses, of course!

Now, here is your Christmas Quiz!

Examining the song The 12 Days of Christmas, in total, how many individual items did my true love give to me?

The first correct answer will win a handful of Wagos!
and a "bonus" present!

You have to show your working, though!

Waiting...

Have a great day!

When Mrs Pirate comes to life tomorrow and looks at the rum store I expect I'll have to walk the plank and get keel-hauled too!

Tel, it's Laphroaig, so a good try mate!
Doomed, you are right! PM me your address and I'll send your prize, the handful of Wagos and the "bonus" gift!

Crikey, what a busy day here on the old ship! We've spliced the mainbrace so many times it looks like a macrame basket...

I've slipped into J&B mode now...just mellowing...
Mrs P has slipped into "normal" mode...just bellowing!

Oh well, it's been a good christmas, I guess...but time to slip the mooring...

No wind, so I'm going to ask the Yamaha girl if she can help out...

My daughter gave me a new mug to sip my Navy Rum from, with that Italian guy on it...
"What's 'is name?"
