Seriously, is it any wonder the NHS is on its knees - surfing on prescription. Or to more accurately describe it - another fecking DFL strap hanger milking the system to provide themselves with a hippy second career / semi retirement activity under the guise of charitable activity. 

 

More than happy to acknowledge the character building attributes of a demanding and physically challenging sporting activity but provision of such is the role of the PARENT not the fecking state or charity sector.

The shed draggers and the roof box brigade - you’d think they’d never seen a single track road before ?

For the amount of work you do you might as well buy a holiday home in the South of France and move out while the holidaymakers are on your patch.

It never seems to amaze me that "locals", half probably moved from London, living in tourist hotspots, moan like buggery about visitors spending money in their idyllic area. I lived in Dorset for 31 years, the same there, moan, moan bleeding moan. They'd soon moan if the money dried up. I've been out on the piss so don't care if I get abuse. I thank you in advance.

And he was a sodding matelot.  I am now preparing to repel boarders.

I've a feeling we both might get a verbal kicking when he gets back from mincing around, or whatever it is retired sailors do. It certainly isn't a lot of work.

Ex matelots usually sit in a quay side pub sporting an unkempt beard that nesting birds live in, saying wise words like lubber, avast and other gems. They especially like the well worn phrase " pass the cabin boy to me."  They often have a knackered old fishing net on their knees that they pretend to mend to impress the tourists. Vast amounts of free ale and rum are consumed by the said net mender, all the while talking in the manner of Robert Newton playing role of Long John Silver. Very impressive to witness. I am now progressing to Champagne, so will be spouting more crap. I apologise in advance .

Out of interest what do you think is the most impartial online news service? I was brought up with the BBC and used to consider it fairly balanced but those days seem to be long gone sadly. 

I may have been mistaken. Perhaps some of them are prepared to tell the truth:
