How do we attract the waitresses attention?
Do we have to kof ti get a kebab?
... or give her a 
(cous-cous)?
(Sorry about my sense of houmus ... er humour - I feel awful (felafel) about it!)
Who is this Al Doucan, anyway? Some relative of Al Gore?

*Interrupts the awful pun that is looming by coming onto the Bridge with a very full shopping bag. She is wearing a new baseball cap with a bright feather stuck into it.*
Hi! I just got back from raiding the shops while we were in port. I have acquired new black tee shirts for the crew. *Rummages in bag and begins to distribute tee shirts to everyone.* See, they have the name of the ship in big bloody letters on the backs and on the front is a sweet little

Oh please, I don't want to wear it now. It's much too hot.

*Tries on T-shirt*
Something wrong with mine! The name of the ship is on the front, and the emblem is on the back!!!!

*After listening to a request from the Pelican's Nest, conveyed via the speaking tube, Kes opens the chart table drawer and looks around for a chart with something called NORWAY on it.*
Change of location anyone? I hear they do car tours of the scenery (using a fjord escort?)

The printing on this chart is abit faint ...
*Holds up a chart of YAWRON, then quickly flips it over, hoping nobody has noticed*
No ... the ink's fine now ... So, Cap'n, shall we head for the land of ice water? It is summer there, so if it doesn't snow, it'll rain, dear ...
