You need the services of our local marquee supplier, Alec! No sooner has he taken down the marquees for the County Show, then he's putting them back up for the politest rock festival in the UK a month later

if you could fill these supermarket bags with sand, tie a rope around each one and bury it wherever we need a peg, that would be a great help. They hold a lot better in this beach sand.
Nooooo.... Wait, its nearly sunset !!!
we've got to get over to Mallory Square to watch it go down and applaud as it dips below the horizon...there are hundreds of people there every night...it's THE place to be !!
We can take the Hummer, anybody want to drive??

*comes down from the ship... blinks at the sun, looks around and tries to remember what a beach was made for...*
*Looks for an umbrella and a deckchair... finds both and takes out book... opens coolbox and extracts some cold "Hefeweien"*
*Looks up and out to sea. Sees the ship in its glourious splendour and starts wondering, if this really is Margaritaville, or if that deckchair teleported him to some other beach, further east...*
This is unbelievable... can I really be in this place? What am I doing here? Holidays... I wonder...

erm...sorry caerwynn, i'm still trying to put the big tent up.
i think most of the other 'pirates' back on board are too busy
skipping blithely over the backlog to even realise where we are,
let alone actually come to the beach and lend a hand.
*picks up big wooden hammer that lizzy left here yesterday,
starts chasing tourists*
plenty of margarita mix left tho'
