Since falling off , lost my nerve????
Rumours abound while not around
Head and nerve still intact,
No problems after the impact
Problem not upon the head, but
more when I'm seated, must be said.
Poetic pirates - on the run?
Only trying to have some fun!
Jake leaves the crew to find their way
only to find they go astray.
Fear not, Jake will soon be back,
if only to get things back on track,
<…Sounds like you are already the shape of a ship, looking forward to seeing the launch.Secret (not very) training noted, on top of Majorcan training camp.So.......
the Captains plan is to lead from the front?See you at 7 thenWhat time do we meet at the Tuns 7 or 7.30?Looking to go NorthDon't think the last half mile counts as '' all the work on the front''
- that is usually the lead out that most give you on any other day!!
and I note you do not give Phil the credit for taking lead for the 8 miles previous to that.Calm seas and plenty of room - sounds good to me , see you there.Fantastic ride in the sun today, 13 out (unlucky for some), 48 miles @ 17.2 when the Black Pig took a broadside on the Guilden road - carnage!! Put me into a run off ditch on the side of the road resulting in the need of a new helmet - saved serious…So ...... your land wife says - no!!!!!Too much grog or not, ships rules says no-one gets keelhauled or cast adrift from the Black Pig!7 hardy crew on the Black Pig today facing a raw easterly to Duxford, back with the wind in our sails,
Steady club run pace for second day running, 40 miles @ 16 mph.
Still waiting for the sunny, warmer days.

7 crew members basking in the early summer sunshine,
No crew keelhauled, cast adrift or marooned in unknown waters.

Will be checking the rigging and scraping the hull in dry dock tomorrow.
CTJ7 hardy souls out today,
Pugwash still in dry dock in need of urgent repairs and rejuvenation,
40 miles plenty in the cold weather.

40 - 45 miles normal rules apply.
9.30 at the Tunns
CTJBBC forecast says -2 and light snow,
don't intend to be eating tarmac,
go for the more steely alternative,
the turbo in the dry dock for me.
Anybody feeling hardy? - feel free to set sail at 9.3…Thanks Shaun for a great route & Cafe stop,
glad to find pirates welcome in your crew.
Got back with 43 miles @ 16.8, just the job to burn off the christmas pud.
Pity you couldn't make it Cap'n Pugwash,

Hope your chart reading is better than your calender reading,
or were you looking for a Back To The Future rde,
- whatever - will be there this week.
CTJAlso not carrying as much weight as wellHope you recognise I am the one on the right - gasping, but not as grumpy and complaining as Pugwash. JakeAhoy there Pugwash, will be there for the launch, with charts and lucky sou'wester.Book us a place at the Captains table for hard tack & grog for two.
Cut Throat JakeSorry to have missed you Mr Pearce
- but as all seafarers know, time & tide wait for no man.
As to plotting course , that is always always dependant on wind & weather, condition of captain & crew.
Only two things certai…Pugwash back from the land of pies & beer, additional load around the girth needs to be carried, so heave to at the tunns 9.30, more crew means lighter load, will be there to assist with the heavy load. Good to see Gandalf will be there - much m…Captain Pugwash again fighting off the effects of a run in with west country grog again puts me on the bridge. Weigh anchor at 9.30 from our home berth of the Three Tuns, heading south against the breeze and hoping for a good run with the wind back …
