Shagbark takes the whiskey and pours some into his Flask which he carries. He then Puts the bottle in the dumb waiter and sends it down with a note from our friends ashore. He then starts swigging on the whiskey and watching the northern lights as they play across the northern sky.

Back on F615?thread="smiley - steam" title="steam" class="smiley" src="http://www.h2g2.com/h2g2/skins/Alabaster/images/Smilies/f_steam.gif"/> so to dramatise my displeasure I have instituted a one month boycott and encouraged other members of the SATS to do likewise. Shagbark pours a little whiskey from his flask into his smiley - coffee. It has been a long campaign but one I pursue over at community soapbox(the box on the left) and at the Society for theAddition of a Towel Smiley.

Back on F615?thread=126132 the powers that be acknowledged that h2g2 lacked a towel smiley and said that one would be given. This was way back in July. Since then they have given us DNA and a host of other things but no towel smileysmiley - steam so to dramatise my displeasure I have instituted a one month boycott and encouraged other members of the SATS (A592102)to do likewise.

*Climbs back up the rigging to the Crow's Nest.*

Hi Floh! Hi Shagbark! Shaggy, I brought you some single malt whiskey. Somehow I knew you'd like some. smiley - winkeye

Yes Floh, The Captain has declared a return trip to France is necessary. I forget why. Probably something to do with food. Or with wine. Probably something to do with both. The Navigator has appropriated lots of bottles of white-out, so we should be ok getting there.

I'm hungry for a big cheeseburger with everything, and an order of fries. Does anyone else want one?

Let me guess. Not enough calvados, eh?
Cheeseburger sounds great.
