Scottish Guy vs Latinotop vs the rest of the world

Keep up the good work Nirish guy.

Wrong!

A 'derailleur" is someone whose job it is to rip up old railway lines. These are then recycled into all kinds of things, such as steel boatpens for parking speedboats.

There is a train derailer used to deliberately derail train cars. A necessary tool for all posters of this forum.

Call me pedantic but some pictures don't count. I can find no official reference (a dictionary or a genuine accredited boating organisation) that uses the word 'park' to describe a boat. Berthed perhaps? I look forward to being enlightened. So there, a big raspberry to you.

The Bard has a few thoughts that readily fit into this Much Ado About Nothing.
Latin: “For which of my bad parts didst thou first fall in love with me?”
All the Lotharios: “I had rather hear my dog bark at a crow, than a man swear he loves me.”
The Butterflies:
“Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,
Men were deceivers ever,-
One foot in sea and one on shore,
To one thing constant never.”

I love this thread. It is the best chuckle ever.

I've never been in a topic within which I've planted so many 'likes'. I hasten to add that, if I could, I would also fire in a few 'dislikes' as well.

Which sends me off-topic: why isn't there a 'Not Like' feature? Democracy is in big trouble when the Deplorables can't be 'Dis-Liked'. As my hero Mr Trump says all the time ... "fucking political correctness".
By the way, what was the topic anyway?

There you go again Scottish with your obscure 70s comedy references despite the fact that a certain member has quite clearly told you it's "wasting everybody's time." Whatever next? Charley Farley and Piggy Malone! I maintain my position on boat parking. And what about elephants, camels and horses. What is the correct way to describe them when they are stationary for a period of time? Tethered if they're tied up but what if they're loose? A right can of worms this, isn't it.

And being Scottish, I bet you like salty popcorn don't you? Yuk.

Alas if one is too lazy ( or being the insult thread - stupid - :-) to spent 30 seconds on google and find the plethora of websites and conversations where boaty people discuss parking their boat I fear I can be of no further help to you, you'll see on the link I posted both a video of boats being parked up and also editorial tech discussing said parking, if THAT Sir, is not enough for you then I'm afraid you're just going to have to die wondering, whilst hoping that God doesn't own a speed boat and asks you to go park it for him before granting you access to his home as you'll be SCREWED and THEN you'll wish you had of believed me !!!

I'm now off to mop down my brow from your disgusting spread of saliva as forced upon me during your aforementioned raspberry blowing in the safe knowledge that my boat will be safely parked should I ever need it to be, whereas YOURS on the other hand, well, the less said about THAT the better perhaps as yours will it seemed by moored or docked to the car park barrier as you drive off home .... !

NIrish. I have already BEEN screwed far too many times to be granted access to God;s beautiful home. Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go and park some water in the kettle, park some coffee in the cup, reverse in some milk and sugar and make a cup of valet parked coffee.

You said it - but just don't let the General hear your saying it otherwise you'll be off for a quick dose of re-education classes perhaps !

was[/I] the topic anyway

I have NO idea, isn't it wonderful !
