It was never more than one side of an A5 ( or the imperial equivalent, quarto ) card printed (typed ) on one side. The food was average, at best. It was haute quinine what the fuck are you rabbiting about JW, some peeps really dont have a clue about quality even I as a sixteen year old know the fine food the racket served up.

The Old Git Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 19 hours ago, quilp said: A diver mate of mine reckons there is a trail from Douglas bay all the way to the Bar Light Ship created by passengers and staff lobbing teacups and saucers overboard from the tens of thousands of journeys made over the centuries. I picked up a few bits over the years. One dive at the back of Douglas Head I found a big stainless steel mixing bowl. As there were quite a few boats passing close to our SMB I wore it on my head as we surfaced. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
