Been a strange day for me, barney. Couldn't log in for starters, when I did, there were pages missing and some blanks. Had problems with Commsec too, going round in circles. Had a brain wave....changed it over to mobile data, and was better but still dropouts here and there.

Don't think you were thrown overboard? Can you see Captain's post? Thought I was kicked out, but apparently not?

Logging out now, have a great evening everyone. Good luck for tomorrow.

Crikey!
I only bannished Sea-Cadet Barney because he could not be Polite enough to Post a " GOOD or BAD or UGLY " Emogi in all these Years we have been on the ASF Forum

Go Figure! Is he One of the Trolls?

To me ABSTRACTION it's an Act of a Rat/ a Spy / 0r a Snake but I could be wrong

Welcome back On -Board The Good Ship "HMAS Ship of Fools " Sea-Cadet Barney
I have missed you Greatly and you are one of the Greatest Fools I have ever met

I hope you take this as a Compliment with Lots of Affection ?

Salute and Stay Safe

Thought I'll check if the site has hiccups or we were on a one way block ( I don't understand these things) well Thought maybe the Captain can see us and we can't see him, haha....I was wrong. Thought about what you said that he may have released the lifeboat and abandoned ship (that thought didn't cross my mind)

Well, the good news is, you have a reprieve from what I see. Captain likes emojis, you can give him a lick here and there, and all will be well, barney. Good luck

That's a good decision, Captain, well done, and you are capable of loving, even if you think they're fools, haha

Barney didn't mean anything by not showing emotions. Some people aren't emotional like us, :D

This is so true and some of us are still not yet up to speed with this computer stuff , beyond the basics , of course.
I did have a 10 year old technical adviser at one time but had to sack her as I grew increasingly worried about the eyeballs rolling way back into the know-it -all's silly head . Could go blind doing that !

I was told a different story....another cause for blindness!

So far, so good, looks like there's nothing wrong with the laptop now. Must have been the nbn.

That is a rather strange and quite inaccurate accusation el-Capitaan :confused:

A quick glance through a few recent pages will see many favorable acknowledgements .... For example: Posts 1043 1052 1053 1056

I must confess .... had fewer of my unfortunate scurvy ridden sea-mates been banished to the yardarm, the number of my "acknowledgements" would likely be exponentially higher ;)

Out of respect, I have to balance my appreciation of the Skippers ability to steer his ship, with the remorse of my fellow crew members who have been thrown to the sharks. I'm sure you can understand my dilemma. 😇

That being said, I am glad to be back on the ship ...... someone needs to keep the mainsail trimmed around here:happy:
 
Excuse me Young /Recalcitrant Sea-Cadet Barney,

This Captain has never thrown any Crew member to the Sharks
Sailing in Deep and Rough Seas often leads to "Man Overboard "Situations and Unfortunately Many are Lost at Sea

Far too many if you ask me

Anyway to Welcome you Back onboard I have organized a Tribute Concert for you that only the British can do

Enjoy but PLEASE Don't watch the ads on your First Run through as you will miss this hour long Gearge Harrison Spectacular tribute



Salute and Stay Well

For the record ... I am unsure whether I may have been banished from the ship ... or whether the Ship has sprung a leak based on the last couple of posts??

I cannot see any posts from the good Captain for a couple of pages back, so ... Perhaps I have finally been relegated to the plank? :(

OR ... has the good Captain released the lifeboat and left in the middle of the storm without telling all and sundry?? :oops:

No doubt all will be revealed in good time. :speechless:

@barney banished you are probably. If you can't see what the Mad Cap't is or has posted then you are now in that exclusive club. Last count 22

The good Captain has reinstated me for deck duties Farmer. My ability to crawl up the gunnel and trim the storm jib has been recognized :happy: I'm the guy in the blue wet suit, lol.

Apparently, I have been made to walk the plank too, for what reason has me a little bemused. I view it as a badge of honour, membership of an elite club of scallywags. :laugh:

That aside, it seems to prove my missus' contention that I could talk underwater :p
