There is a sweet enticing place
Where noone ever sees your face
Where lights untangle as you dance,
It's not in Spain, it's not in France
It's here, aboard this pirate ship
shagbark pours himself more wassail and fills his plate
with goodies supplied by Mari-Rae.

*finds herself caught up in the tango, lights and all*
Oh no, wait.... slow down........ 
I'm losing my balance.......
*trips over 
lights and with her hands tangled in the lights still, can't grab hold of anything to stop herself falling.........*

I just saw Joe up in the crows nest and he was asking the same thing.
I think I will keep that my little secret

*shagbark reappears once more notes that the h2g2 upgrade does not seem to have hurt his high tech self heating mugs any.
pours himself a steaming hot mug of wassail and sings another verse Here I come a wassailing upon a pirate ship
Here along the foredeck we've many lights don't trip
Love and Joy come to you
And to you your wassail too
and God bless you and send you
A happy New Year, And God send you a Happy New Year
