Whilst sailing is temporarily curtailed, perhaps a maritime ditty will fill the gap?

A sailor meets a pirate in a bar. The pirate has a peg leg, a hook, and an eye patch. "How'd get the peg leg?" asks the sailor. "I was swept overboard in a storm," says the pirate, "shark bit off my whole leg," "Wow!" said the sailor. "What about the hook?" "We were boarding an enemy ship, battling the other seamen with swords. One of them cut me hand clean off." "Incredible!" remarked the sailor. "And the eye patch?" "A seagull dropping fell in me eye," replied the pirate. "You lost your eye to a seagull dropping?" the sailor asked incredulously. Said the pirate, "It was me first day with the hook."

DARTS

Last Friday's practice session was very well attended, with Terry Evans taking all the honours resulting from the evening's competitions.

As well as demonstrating his prowess at darts, Terry, accompanied by Blake Shaw, fed the masses with the expected high standard of cuisine which included his legendary 'real chips'.

Members of the darts team are reminded that we are away this evening to the Crown Inn, Penally - always a difficult fixture, so we will have to be at our best!

ST. VALENTINE'S
