[masalai]

Seasons salutations to all, may your year offer safe sailing, fair winds and calm seas

Neptune looks after me OK, I hope your gods are equally compassionate. (a trait I sometimes lack)

[Willallison]

It's only the bloody 13th...yer a bit early aren't you guys...?

Anyway - back at ya....:D

[masalai]

For what, Chinese New Year or 2008???

[charmc]

OK, it's early. So what. Good idea, longliner. I'll be busier than usual now through the end of the year, sooooooo ...

Merry Christmas to all of you, and the very best for the new year. :D

[artemis]

Merry Christmas and a Joyous and Prosperous New Year!

[masalai]

Artie, how did you manage to get all that foam to stay in place for the shot? There is NO WAY I would volunteer to go somewhere soooo cold! All yours my friend. I will happily enjoy the tropics.

[nordvindcrew]

Brother Dave and I will be rowing Sunday before Christmas and New Years' Day. We'll toast your health with an extra tot of Aquavit. Best wishes for a blessed Christmas and a bountiful new year. Jeff

[artemis]

Artie, how did you manage to get all that foam to stay in place for the shot?... I will happily enjoy the tropics.

Ah, I know it's summer in OZ and it never really gets too cold down there... What you think is "foam" is actually brought about by a cold weather condition and is called SNOW. Google it for a better description. Some of us acquainted with it (not me!) will deliberately go outside and "play" in/with it. :D

[Fanie]

I must say since I'm the new guy here, I've learned a lot... make that a LOT. I don't know why I haven't looked at sailing earlier on, probably wasn't ready for it, ignorance, whatever, I guess any excuse will have to do.

Thanks for your accomodation, hints, advice, the jokes good grief some filthy buggers here ;), and the personality you all bring to this forum.

Due to all of your inspiring advice like 'DON'T build your own boat :rolleyes:' I'm now building a little tri to get some sailing experience and get a skipper's licence. After that I'll tackle the Boxy Fisher which will be a sailing motor cat that catches fish, maybe even more fish...

Lastly I made some new friends. The nice thing about a forum is you can be friends without having to look at the ugly bugger's face while trying to concentrate on a subject eh !

For those hwo has the boat already... happy sailing, and to all, all the good things that goes with a great Christmas !

I'm going to stop here now before Masalai burst into tears (beat you to it, didn't I :D)

[masalai]

Geeeeee, You get stuff that falls from the sky???, I thought that was pollution?

[masalai]

Ahhh fanie, I was only wiping the sleep from my eye and then polishing my glasses (eyes that is - take em out to clean em.

Yeaaar thanks again Longliner for an excellent and appropriately timed thread. All the xmas light display houses are being judged, more than 100000 lights in some. Hell that is 10 bastards (10,000 fathers is 1 B).

[longliner45]

trust me on this one ladys and gents,nobody wants to be my twin,there isint enough room in this world for another jerk like me .with my ominous nature,,,watch your backs this holiday season ,,thiefs are out in full force,,someone tried to steal my mast for scrap.but couldent lift it ,,so I really chained it down now,,,they dont know how lucky they are,,be alert,,and good tidings to all of you ,,longliner

[masalai]

Any sales talk with "trust me" is telling inaccurate facts. But thank you for this thread. You know the usual crowd have infected it into being another drivel forum?

[Fanie]

I know exactly how you feel about thieves. I always had the perception to make it really easy and inviting for them to attempt... then shock the living crap out of them. Newspaper heading should read 'thieve identified by dental records' Sorry, off topic here.

On second thoughts I'll change my wishes for everyone -

For those hwo has the boat already... happy sailing, and to all, all the good things that goes with a great Christmas ! and may your thieves be eaten by sharks.... slowly :D

[safewalrus]

Fanie how can you identfy thieves by their dental records when all their teeth have been knocked out by a sledge hammer?

Apart from that (and them) have a good one fellahs, don't get too pissed (no mor'n once a day) for them as drink (them as don't unless it's medical go get one whilst your priest is looking the other way, in most cases share his!) And a fantastic New Year, better than the last couple

and rest assured I SHALL be taking the pee out of Frosty in 2008 and I bloody sure he'll be taking out of me - matter of principle! (also we'd be bored without it - you guys would too I guess!)

[masalai]

Spread yourself around Safie, my radar can follow if I'm bothered. Am enjoying the laughs though.

[Frosty]

Christmas fear have I none,--exept that walrus will probably be given a day off and so we might have him hanging around for the whole day.

Stuffed with Turkey if he manages to stuff it then kill it and stick it in the washer to boil it. Thats what they do in Cornwall, Best not mention it to him,-- he gets a bit embarrassed about it.
Then down the town hall for free beer for the pensioners before paddling in the river for snails. All jolly good fun ----if your Cornish.

Back to the house for the queens speech at three and then settle down for Morcambe and wise Christmas special followed by the Two Ronnies.

" I want 4 candles" "have you got any O's'

Sorry sepo's its an English thing. Your better off not knowing --really.

But wait a minute youlle be getting "its a wonderfull life" with oh what is name Bert Lancaster as the angel 'Clarence'

and then Mr magoo followed by 'I love lucy with Desi swatsnager Arnes, Mr Edd the horse,--one of my favourites, 'Dennis the menace',--- Helloooo Mr willson???? Oh Oh and that witch with the twitchy nose.

Finally my all time favourite Jed Clampet, Granny and elly May Clampett in the ceeement pond Yeeeeeha.

Bit of insest there but never mind,--its American.

everthing white, cristmas nightsky (http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007/20dec_christmaseve.htm?list54216) may be looking cool too

[masalai]

We , according to the weather forecast will have

"Blue sky's, nuttin but blue sky's, up above...."

[Frosty]

Dont know what I shall be doing for Christmas yet, When is it by the way?

It was on the 25th last year?

What ever I do It will be really boring, I love boring Christmases, I might go for a ride round the island on my bike 75 Kms ,--that should take my mind off it.

[masalai]

I think it is Tuesday, not the same day as last year. Round in the water? - a water bike! built for two.... Ho Ho Ho.

Prosperous new year and later Kong Hee Fat Choi.

[Frosty]

I suppose I could do what I did last year, walk round to the Westin Hotel Used to be Shereton. Walk up to the hotel from the beach and tuck into the lunch.

Its the swimming trunks that do it. No one expects a con man in swimming trunks wiping his hair.

You ask permission to eat with trunks on , when he says no, you come back with clothes on and he smiles and says good morning sir and pushes the seat in for you.

He wont ask for your room number because you are chatty with him by this time. If any one else asks you say "he knows me"

Damn I suppose I will have to pay for my own beer. I hate these penny pinching hotels.

Unless I can find some ones key on the beach.

[westlawn5554X]

yips... Haaaaaaaaappppppppppyyyyyy Xmas guys, roasted deer anyone, been hunting and yummy... cheers :D:D:D

the girls pic is to tell u Asian girls are nice... He... He... :cool:

[Frosty]

Bit over the top Westy --its not till next week you will have burnt yourself out be then.

[DanishBagger]

Even if I am a heathen and an atheist, and that the christians stole the jul (yule) from us, a merry christmas to all of you! :-)

[DanishBagger]

yips... Haaaaaaaaappppppppppyyyyyy Xmas guys, roasted deer anyone, been hunting and yummy... cheers :D:D:D

the girls pic is to tell u Asian girls are nice... He... He... :cool:


Westlawn, how old are you? Because either you're a very dirty old man, or you're a normal young man. I'm asking because those girls look little more than, say, 16 years old to me.

[safewalrus]

Roasted Dear anyone? bit expensive ain't it? think about it........naw forget it tooooooooo complicated!

[masalai]

Yes deer, Oh sorry walrus, on the Japanese menu are we? Although.... naaah wrong thread

[Frosty]

16 is old enough Danish especially in Denmark. Dont worry they wont be virgins either.

If there old enough to put them on they are old enough to take them off.

I do prefer an older mature woman myself.

I admire a woman that walks around with a mattress on her back in case she meets any one she knows.

[DanishBagger]

true- 15 is the "pants-age". Unless you're their teacher or otherwise can be said to abusing your position of power.

[Frosty]

Oooh Im glad Im not you Danish. You wait till some of those Septics get up out of bed . They don't like talk like this. Ive already been in trouble for this kind of talk.

Ahh lovelly day today the sky is clear blue, not a cloud in the sky. The sea is sparkling and boats are being washed. Theres a boat just trying to get into a dock accross from me but she is a woman so get the fenders out,--Oh ****, Oh no I gott a go, Oh no crash Bump scrape bag.

[longliner45]

not too cool,man

[masalai]

Frosty, I hope she hit the jetty and not your boat.

Danish, you dirty old man, I've got grandchildren older than that! But I was about that age when I did it.

[Frosty]

Told you !!!

[masalai]

What? "...so get the fenders out,--Oh ****, Oh no I gott a go, Oh no crash Bump scrape bag...." Where is the "...silly beech she hit my boat!..." bit?

[DanishBagger]

LOL, You guys are too much! Seriously, I'm referring to what the law says. That you're considered an adult when you hit the age of fifteen. When you're that age, you can have sex with anyone 15 and above (no limit). That's it. The only exception being, that if you work as a teacher or somehow are a person with "power" over someone, that age is raised to 18. That's how it is here. I really don't care if americans think that is rude to say or are otherwise offended, as I am only referring facts. I really can't take it seriously if someone thinks that I shouldn't tell anyone about that, because they have moral issues concerning it.

If they have any problems with that part of our law, they should become a danish citizen and raise the issue. Otherwise - I really can't be bothered.

[longliner45]

I dont think anyone will bother you ,,long as you stay in denmark;)

[DanishBagger]

I didn't say I would go for a sixteen-year-old. I agreed with frosty when he said "16 is old enough" – and according to our laws, it is. I prefer mature women my own age give or take five-six years.

Are we done now with this moralising vomitting?

[masalai]

So? don't get testy, similar laws & conditions in Aus, But yanks, total wankers & bigots when anything sexual or anal is mentioned. **** I have been through this before, no telling some people. what's a powder room got with having a **** or piss, or a bog the list goes on.... Powder rooms are for storing explosives. Although the atmosphere in the toilet can become explosive of occasion - a methane fire is amusing if for others.

Blast, just warming up, not Drivel, sorry adjourned see drivel.

[DanishBagger]

I know, Masalai. I guess I am a bit testy. But I really hate it when people get their metophorical index finger out and start pointing – especially when what I say has little to nothing to do with morals.

Off to the drivel thread, as this has nothing to do with wishing people a merry christmas - quite the contrary, in fact.

[longliner45]

sounds just like a liberal....says one thing ,,,,means another,longliner

[masalai]

Enjoy septic baiting. That is the key.

[DanishBagger]

Hmm, Longliner – apparently you're dead set on misinterpreting what I wrote. I guess a victorian moralising mindset often results in reading all fears into everything. You know – projecting one's own fantasies.

[longliner45]

not misinturpreting,,,, what you wrote,,,,,you wrote it,,,just responding ,,I mean if you can state something ,,why cant I ,,are you that liberal? liberals are always ok with everything,,,,,until someone disagrees,,,,buy the way I live in todays world ,,I have no fears ,,,,but maybe a few fantacys,,,,,,,,still love ya ,longliner

[masalai]

Keep to thread function, please go to drivel.

[longliner45]

this is my thread ,,,,,Ill say what the hell I want,,,,,longliner

[masalai]

Oh Fcuk so it is. do I get points for staying here and abusing your intellect?

[DanishBagger]

Thank you for emphasising my point about prude victorian mindsets, Longliner.

This is what frosty wrote:
16 is old enough Danish especially in Denmark.


Now, this is what I wrote as a reply to the above:

[true- 15 is the "pants-age". Unless you're their teacher or otherwise can be said to abusing your position of power.


This is in fact true. Here in this country we do call it the "pants-age", because the law actually states what I just explained. Recently that age has also become the cut-off age for buying alcohol and tobacco.

Now, where did I say what you insinuate, and now reenforce with your latest comments? Please do point me to it.

[westlawn5554X]

Westlawn, how old are you? Because either you're a very dirty old man, or you're a normal young man. I'm asking because those girls look little more than, say, 16 years old to me.

Gee... that 2 girls are my girlfriend on the net,... they are not EVEN in my country, Their philipino one is 17 another slightly older.

Yes I am a dirty old man at age 36 yrs ok.... I am currently staying together with a girl 21 yrs old and the whole city knew about it but couldnt bother to disturb me with the fact she look somewhat younger.

Girls in Asia at older age look young anyway... god's gift to look cute... :rolleyes:

[DanishBagger]

not misinturpreting,,,, what you wrote,,,,,you wrote it,,,just responding ,,I mean if you can state something ,,why cant I ,,are you that liberal? liberals are always ok with everything,,,,,until someone disagrees,,,,buy the way I live in todays world ,,I have no fears ,,,,but maybe a few fantacys,,,,,,,,still love ya ,longliner

Oh, I see you added quite a bit.

I know you're "just responding" – aren't we all? You're making a logical leap here (and in fact a strawman argument): I never said you couldn't respond, nor did I infer it. So when you pretend I did, you're not being intellectually honest. And that leap you make of accusing me of being liberal –*I guess you want to know, so you can complete the other strawman you seem intent to "prove": That if I agree, I will also agree with your claim that I said what you think (and continue to claim) I said.
I'm not jumping onto that train, Longliner. Try something else, if you want to drag me down.

[masalai]

Danish septics are renown for shooting first. Which can make baiting fun, especially from the stories of some friends on Nam.

Our boys would only shower in hot water in prep for a patrol, no smoking, no bubble/chewing gum, no body powder etc & no "boom boxes & chatting whilst "out walking". Come close to US activity, throw a couple of stones or sticks, and all hell breaks out in a fires-torm, our guys walk around that, straight in & ask if any help is needed.

[longliner45]

danish,,stop .your right ,its that english bastard frosty that the lynch mob should be after,,I went back and read some more,,by the way ,,,,,,whats intellect and where can I buy some ,,,perhaps the hardware store?

u can get some in ToyRUs:P

[masalai]

Just gimme the points & ill tel you

[DanishBagger]

I guess this has run it's course for me, so I need to say something:

There is absolutely nothing wrong with americans per se (nor anyone else, for that matter). They are a pretty big (not a pun) target for jokes and "dissing" – simply because they're everywhere and they matter (and they have an idjit for president).

However, when someone tries to shove their personal set of morals down my throat simply because they read things that are not there into what I write, I find that act offensive by itself.

Just before posting this I refreshed.

Thanks, Longliner.

[masalai]

Alls well that ends well, good entertainment for a while, bless all your little pumping hearts.

We have a line of (hopefully) squalls developing some 150km away and a NNE breeze of 19 knots pushing moisture in towards them. Maybe a good drop of rain to put some water in the (drinking water supply) dams.

The next version of my boat is starting to develop. Couple of months and another model.

Seasonal salutations all, don't drink or eat too much, enjoy all your days and nights as I intend to do with enthusiasm as usual.

Thanks, masalai

[Frosty]

I havnt heard that Simon and Garfunkel track called the 9o clock news for some time now

It was bloody fantastic ,--singing Silent night to the back drop of Americas 9 o clock news. More contrast would be difficult to imagine.

sorry bad english, meaning deer should be dear mean expensive... pork roast actually... if I can get my piggy bank open .Mmmm... I still need to brush up my language.:)

[safewalrus]

Westlawn remember buddy your English is better than my Malay / Indonesian whatever! Also remember that most of the guys on here English (or a version of) is their 'mother tongue' if this forum was in another language we probably wouldn't be on it - you and 'Danish' would be bored to talking to each other! Never feel that you need to appoligise for your English, it's pretty damn good! And seasons Greetings to you! No matter your religion - that is between you and your God(s) the rest ? you will do for me friend!

[lazeyjack]

hell you lot must be bored to live in here and post this muck,
HAPPY XMAS longliner
Sure the days are short and nights are long up in the NH, but cant you get off the pc and go make something in your basements?
And Masalai , don't insult my learned friend else I will come over and belt you over the head with a dead cane toad:))

I feel cozy already... u really make this xmas special... what's for dinner honey?:p

[masalai]

Main: Roast chicken (Emu road kill), special sauces, spuds (from Victoria), pumpkin (home grown) & beans (from the freezer) with of course a cheeky white wine.

Next: pavlova, fresh diced strawberries, icecream and home (me - not from packet) made custard. local coffee roasted and ground to my order, with scotch and a port for afters.

Just simple fare.... Happy eating.

wow... dont tell me u cook all these? impressive sir... enjoy... now where is my freezer dinner...:p

ps. I prefer milk tea with a tad of brandy in raining season... cheerz

[Frosty]

No holidays here. I will probably have to go to the bank on the 25th. Even if I don't I get a kick out of doing so. Might buy the misus a new bicycle ,her old one is a bit knackered she puts a lot of miles in going to the market.

Monkey brains is popular here in Malaysia, eaten right from the still live monkey that is braced in a special table with thumb screws that hold the skull. The top of the head is removed like boiled egg. The brain is eaten with a spoon and I am told the monkeys eyes go round in their sockets as the brain is eaten

Cananbalism was popular at one time too, but that also is frowned upon now.

I don't know what I will be having,-- probably a Big mac,--Im sure they are open.

I know what I am having tonight though,-- Thai food

[westlawn5554X]

watch out mcdonal is good for storing up fat to brace the winter... beautiful skinny will spend their holidays in tropic :D :D :D

[masalai]

Westie, That type of exposure is locally (around where I live) called "plumbers arse" - not the display of nickers, but the exposure of bum cheeks.

Exposure at the other side is called delightful anticipation?

[safewalrus]

Frostie - wouldn't your eyes go round if somebody was eating your brain.....no maybe not! No sense no feeling

Happy Christmas you cruel senseless bar****

[masalai]

Frosty's not a barmaid? & monkey brains for dinner is a test of your intestinal fortitude, or, are you pissed enough not to notice. A rite of passage?

I don't see where Frosty said he partook? Nor have I? But it is a local delicacy, & plenty of monkeys. Other cultures prefer dogs, cats, snakes, rats, locusts, snails, frogs legs, whale flesh, dolphin meat, dugong, turtle, (all of which I would not necessarily eat as the idea is offensive), but the best meat for the health of the eater, minimal environmental impact for the farmer (no where near endangered or diminished in numbers despite European cry-babies protestations), is kangaroo.

Mary was the barmaid. Xmas greetings on this eve.

[Frosty]

Im not a barrester either!!

Poor ole Walrus, yet another year nearer the ole peoples home. How the hell he holds down a job --jeees. A brainless monkey must be able to work in uk now then.

As a travelled mariner ( you said it) and having the opportunity to have vistied Malaysia and shot a few locals (you said it) you must have been aware of this act of eating live monkey brains.

What are you eating tomorrow a dead turkey. Oh you dirty Bas@#$%

[Frosty]

Its getting pretty close to Christmas now. The date line will be having tomorrow in about oh 5 hours or so.

The missus is out buying some cheese slices for dinner. Shes been laughing all day because she said I can have tomato in my cheese sandwich because its christmas.

Im off for a shower in a minute and going down pub -- well the yacht club actually.

So have a merry Christmas you bastards.

I feel happy today --sod it-Im going down pub right now.

[masalai]

& I just got 6 bottles of good WA plonk?? & the car is misfiring soo bad it may as well be running on 1 cylinder. Bugger no mechanic till - - forever. Who cares, all groceries and booze stock is in. I'm OK till about the 6 Jan. I'll have to eat & drink it all myself!

[Frosty]

Ha ha my cars always broke down at Christmas. I remember once spending all the christmas holidays putting a new piton in a Volvo. I had to fix it I had to go to work.

Jeees that was a long time ago.

Going down pub--- NOW

[Fanie]

westlawn5554X, you left out the SA picture... ;)

Frosty, why on earth a VOLVO ! Even the Toyota's last longer... no wonder you have troubles my dear fellow.

[Frosty]

Im going down pub.

[masalai]

Westie, I think he may know where to scratch to play with his gun? But wearing leather wristlets & black, probably a reel gay boy?

[westlawn5554X]

westlawn5554X, you left out the SA picture... ;)

Frosty, why on earth a VOLVO ! Even the Toyota's last longer... no wonder you have troubles my dear fellow.

Nah... never fired a gun before and never had a tatoo... In hunting, I always have my blowpipe and become the driver... enkoy driving and get the biggest share...:D

[Fanie]

Well. seeing your girls sitting on the pavement makes me think of how lucky our wives are. There are these poor woman we have here, barely enough money for clothes... my heart so goes out to them :D

[masalai]

Sorry westie, mis-posting again. Yo Fanie! she may as well be naked, Actually she should be!

It's quarter past midnight & Santa has delivered all his presents on the Australian East coast

Merry Christmas All.

It is supposed to be to celebrate the anniversary of the birth of Jesus 2007? years ago. Don't see much of that in shops nowadays? crass commercial bastards we've become!

[charmc]

Man, I get busy and stay away for a bit and everything here turns to drivel!!

Westlawn, thanks for reminding us that young women are one of life's pleasures, any time of year.

Bagger, methinks you were just a wee bit sensitive. Longliner's comment just seemed, to me at least, to register disagreement with the Danish law legalizing sexual rights at 15. No more out of line than you disagreeing with activity permitted in the US ... which has happened now and then, if I recall correctly. :)

One of the delights of this forum is the range of opinions expressed. Divergent, often conflicting, but nearly always in good faith. Hell, if there's a better definition of a forum, I haven't heard it.

I know the day is nearly over for some of you, but it's just beginning in an hour here, sooooooo, Merry Christmas to you all.

[Frosty]

Where the hell is Danish anyway. He hasnt spit is dummy out has he?

[masalai]

Being obscure is not persona non gratia, as far as this little thrower of lots of communist herring knows. Arrrh my Latin is deteriorating. Danish will just have a lot of reading to do to catch up to recent "news"
