The Bandar-Log.

Divided Destinies

"It was an artless Bandar and he danced upon a pine,
And much I wondered how he lived, and where the beast might dine,
And many many other things, till, o’er my morning smoke,
I slept the sleep of idleness and dreamt that Bandar spoke.

He said:—“O man of many clothes! Sad crawler on the Hills!
“Observe, I know not Ranken’s shop, nor Ranken’s monthly bills!“
I take no heed to trousers or the coats that you call dress;
“Nor am I plagued with little cards for little drinks at Mess".

(Rudyard Kipling).

"An' what you lookin' at ?"

(Not Rudyard Kipling)

"A possible Buccaneer pilot he may be, but if we can't cure him of getting over excited whenever he hears "Bananas Bananas" then he is chopped."

Over to you, Wensleydale!

Well, if you added enough lubricant the last time Nutty, we'd not be needed again!

Most girls made use of the fire extinguisher gas cylinder for amusement, but Big Bertha was in class of her own.

I don't know about you girls, but this is the second time I have had to push this bloody torpedo for this competition

Sorry chaps - if this has been used recently, then I can post another if the consensus is there. (My original photograph did not want to show so I went to an old favoured website). W

Glady's decided a battering ram was needed to get into the male accommodation.

In the Navy, you can sail the seven Seas
In the Navy, we have huge suppositories
In the Navy, it's enough to make you cry
In the Navy, just don't get it in your eye....

Dealing with the ship's mascot elephant's "time of the month" took some real determination.
