"YABBER-LINER" - ALL ABOARD

Hi crew, spent lots of time reading and watching all your beautiful posts, with so much goodwill heading in Charlie's direction, how could things not go right on Friday. Bought myself a bottle of Pink Champagne today, which I won't pop until I hear some good news coming out of the UK.

Harbourmaster I would have loved to be with you over the weekend, the available food made my mouth water, not commenting on the attractive lady, as I promised mismi I'd be good during her absence.

Izzie have a safe trip whenever you travel Essex way this week, is S-boy coming with you? Pets taken care of? Sun is out so I'm off for a stroll through the Aboriginal "dreamland" across the road.

Still hungry....

Hey Bazza. Love the carnival photos. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Morning world! Cup of tea in bed and woke up to lovely fb messages from so many wonderful friends. Thank you!
Got a sore throat and sniffles this morning which I need to shift before Friday, so have just dosed myself up with some painkillers! Yeehah!
Only 48 hours and Izzie will be here with S boy. Can't wait!
Have a wonderful day and enjoy your walk Bosun xxx

Hey sis - up early and thinking of you - how funny - Love you babe - and see u later xxx

Morning Izzie and F/Q, thinking of you both, long day Captain. Make sure you get a decent night sleep before heading of to Essex, wishing you a safe trip.

How is Charlie this morning, managed to get a good sleep? What an amazing girl is your "soul sister" despite her own problems she is there for you in your hour of need, bless the both of you.

I SO AGREE WITH YOU DUTCHY - She is the best Soul sister in the world and I wouldn't be able to do this without her - i have had an Izzie present every single day since I went sick, ranging from Bridget Jones big knickers to beautiful jewellry and a pink Booby Bird and candles and razors and and and - I am so so spoilt! - I love that girl.

My morning has been a bit morbid - I couldnt sleep and got up at 4.30 - I have just written my Will, which was long overdue as I only have a real basic one, and it was time to get my act in order - Phew - once job done - lets hope I can get it through and signed quickly!

Enough of that - I have asked all my colleagues at work to wear something pink on Friday - please can you guys do the same - even if it is hidden - pink thongs are good -men!!!

-Right - enough tears this morning - shower time and face the world - hubby at work, which is good for him - J girl off to the Photographers gallery in London Town for her Art project and I am going to get ready for Iz Liz to arrive tonight - Can't wait.
Have a great day guys
Love y'all

I will make it a point to wear something pink on Friday. I am sure the other guys on this thread are already wearing pink now.

Thanks Wandel! - I knoew I could rely on a real man!! - I DO love men in Pink though too!

Glad to see we have some good male support on board right now - It's much appreciated
