2006 RAN Skilled Hands 4th Sydney Rocks Xmas Pub Crawl...

Chippy Ned · **Posted:** Mon Nov 27, 2006 5:31 pm

Well guys and gals the time has come for another culture run around the rugged rocks. :wav:

The date is the 16th December starting at "Jacksons on George", which is very near the corner of George Street and the street that runs along Circular Quay, at 1100.

I realise that we have given you short notice and I apologise for that, but I suggest that you break all previous engagements and muster your bodies beautiful along, for a day that delivers heaps of laughs and distorted warries. :blah5:

To top off a momentus occassion, Tricky is going to show us his sailing skills :badgrin:

(thank God the sails won't be up) and motor us around Rushcutters Bay for a "get wellers" on Sunday. [-o<

So come along folks, let's have some names and chatter, for a day that is so much fun, it's talked about for the next 12 months. :occasion5:

On the contrary Gary, we've become very proficient at all aspects of motoring, anchoring, manouvering, navigating and mooring over the past 12 months... :notworthy:

We've also become particularly good at emergency repairs...!!! :violent1:

And now that Ralph has repaired the headsail, we might even get a sail in as well... $\:D/$

Mind you, sailing is not overly conducive to cooking bacon and eggs, not having a gimbal stove...

How long since the sails have been up and used fellas :?:

'Bout 4 weeks ago Gaz... :-k

We'll post some photos next time we've got them up... :thumbright:

The Rocks Run sounds like a fitness event! We'd better dispell that rumour early in the piece and get the beers underway asap.

Been a while since a beer passed these lips, and Pusser Kelson and his cohort in crime, Mobes Mobley, will need a great deal of qualified supervision.

So I guess you'd better count me in.

Really looking to another flush out of the kidneys!
