There is a certain thread that has taken over us all like some sort of mad addiction, has it killed the actually Banter section and taken over???? If so, I hold MRJP BUZZ 585 completely responsible ........general rant over, I'm off to play "This or That" ------------- Dennis Watson 49er GBR735 http://www.helensburghsailingclub.co.uk/ - Helensburgh S.C http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/home.php3?affid=560 - Boat Insurance from Noble Marine |

Spam with one "m" did you never go to school!
More punishments for bad spelling owe the first person to pick up on it 1 pint or there preffered drink. That is unless the word is over 6 letter because then it gets difficult for most of us sailors. ------------- Go Big or Go home or sail a 49er!!! |

I reckon this whole 720 on your chair thing is overrated. Those of us with spinning chairs have been doing that for months, just for fun, and now suddenly its a punnishment? Not having any of that... I put forward a proposal for harsher punishments for those of you not commited enough to check the rest of the thread before you post! ------------- |
