+?? No I think that is Irish Coffee - but hey have a shamrock - I think it is that time of year?





!Sven! Get the barrel of Guinness tapped and ready for later on!

It is! I have seena couple of pubs offering the black stuff at a pound a pint for today!

(Blimey! I expect there will be a lot of merry tourists over here tonight then)

*puts on badge that reads " temporarily irish *

*drinks *

My wife was reminding me- St. Patrick used the shamrock as an illustration of the Trinity. But nowadays people mistake four leaf clovers for shamrocks so that wouldn't work.

Just throw the holy mother into the equation and Bob's your uncle

*gives Sven a boring job of tidying out the medicine cupboard*

He really should stop teasing the crew in the Bar...

Tidying out the medicine cupboard - er - you think that's wise

Yes - it only contains Smarties - the hard drugs are in my

Oh, all right then

Is it too late to visit the bar, you think?

Doctor Doctor, give me the news, I got a bad case of -

Being single again. All rather sudden and not particularly unpelasant (as these things go), but still, it's strange looking at posts I made last week and feeling like a completely different person.

Now, to help me recover I need him to be, ooh, at least 5'9" but I'd prefer him to be around 6'2". Not too slim but reasonably athletic, enthusiastic, quirky, confident, slightly arrogant but also sensitive and caring, willing and able to please and honest with an attractive face (well, attractive all over would be nice) and a nice coppery red please. All over. Yummmy. Oh, and with enough money for him to do the spending for once

Alternatively, well, you're the doc, you tell me.

Oh my dear Robyn - I have no idea why some men can't see a good thing when it is right under their nose. They must be blind, or commitment phobic, or some other silly reason...

I do know for a fact that there are loads of single men out there looking for a special girl - but in the meantime, maybe this sea cruise to Argentina will bring the colour back to your cheeks.


ps have you met Babette? She was last seen on the Bridge, ordering up pizza delivery boys by the pair. She made me smile!

Hands Robyn a and some special pick-me-up vitamin pills.

My personal reaction to being sort-of dumped, was to have my fringe cut and to buy more than one pair of new fabulous shoes!

Oh, to be honest, it was all for the best (and worst!) possible reason... He loves me to bits, we've been friends for nearly four years now for a reason! but he just wasn't falling *in* love with me, you know, that little bit of something extra that makes everything worth fighting for and nothing is so annoying or irritating that it cant be worked on...



It's best reason I've ever been dumped for and I've dumped other people for it too... Cant fight the facts and he's not betrayed me or anything. I had a very wobbly weekend but I'm back on an even keel, it's just a bit lower in the water than it was before. Sadness is lurking like a ready to take a bite out of me when I'm not looking, but hey, I'm swimming

Anyhoo, these pills look yummy and outside looks sunny (well, on the deck of the blood anyway) - I'll make sure we arrive at our destination in the morning and then I can go and watch some mean whippet-like men brutalising horses... I mean go and find some riding stables. I could do with a good gallop!

Dr Feelgood predicts that this young man will look back on this in years to come with deep regret.

Oh well! Don't let the sharks bite you though Robyn - enjoy the gallop, and maybe check your passport is up to date. Maybe fly out and see me sometime?


Hands Robyn a compass and whatever that other instrument is called that sailors use to plot their charts.

Hey! Everyone! Check out Mercury! It's just to the West, next to Venus Brilliant or rather planet!

Pass-port... pass-port... I think mine expired around seven years ago!! I might have to try this travelling thing though, could be nice for a change! X

Hey Robyn! Did my prediction come a little bit near to the truth?



Let's celebrate! all round please Sven -


Where has that naughty Sven got to?


Ah! he was last seen practising new hairstyles on the Hula girls

Let's go look for him pronto then!

With a bit of luck we may also find some of the hula s

Oh hang on Captain I think I fitted him with an automatic return device.


Now where is that button


Here he comes right now!

What? Alone? No hula-s?

Here they come Sire - all twelve, present and correct!

(and there hair styles all look much improved don't they?)
