Actually, it is a load of bother. So why not not bother and find a crazy single girl. Much better, you still get bother but your in the right. And you can with confidence cutlass them all because they haven't got any rights matey. Everybody is happy .... except that chaps who I cut his head off; but who cares.

a single girl? you mean like ONLY ONE

nah, this could never w*rk for a sailor

Only one at a time.

ah, that's better - if only a little

Couldn't work for a sailor? What if someone arranged to have the transferred to each port the sailor will be in, so she's there waiting for him every time he disembarks?

this might w*rk with a very special

Of course it might.

Captain Pugwash and Master Bates? We all remember the cartoon series from our childhood - UK centric - they were very influencial on my sense of humour. Anyone recollect the other characters?
