Mark One Posted December 13, 2020 Author #1926 Share Posted December 13, 2020 But after a hard nights intake of your cash it's so relaxing to dwell within the silence of the Harpy. The gradual settling of bilge water, the stubborn surrender heard coming from the sludge tanks with the occasional splash outside as a keen canal rat fancies his chances. But you know what really soothes my humble soul? That harmonious clicking sound which the hull makes as it settles into yet another swaying night of rest. Bobby Bolster asked me if it sounds anything like this. I told him nah, it's just the boat creaking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark One Posted December 14, 2020 Author #1927 Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) Menu update onnhim Look at this bad boy! Bacon, fried egg, cheese un dripping burger with beer batter onion rings (drowned in dripping) and Harpy chips. Tempted? Then why not check out our menu because you'll not find this onnit. No, get stuffed because Ive cooked this for myself. Oh and for anyone who is confused as to what dripping is think melted lard with HP brown sauce and black pepper.

She feels the soft touch of his hand as it caresses her shoulder before falling softly along her arm. He moves closer, the warmth of his breath upon her ear as he begins to explain. "My new whistle (whistle and flute=suit) was meant to be a surprise but I needed to try it out before I presented it to you.

Mark One Posted December 17, 2020 Author #1937 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Well here I am inside weeveltons Quik-Save Supermarket doing my bit for the children. A special thanks goes Mindy here, who assisted me by keeping the kiddies in line. I quite naturally gave her my business card and offered her a free drinkie in the Harpy. Such a splendid lady, she's even offered to clean the windows at the Dragon, before Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, I'd been hitting the babyshams all afternoon but had forgotten about breakfast or dinner beforehand. Anyhows I ended up assisting some guy with his guitar singing outside Boots. I kept shouting out, " where's my Christmas presents, Santa?" Got quite emotional before some bod from the salvation army shop came across and had me admitted into hospital. Got me stomach pumped before the 25th that year! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
