Dragons on a Boat

Well, dragon at least and the boat is that fine mistress of the seas the Stena Holladica. Yep Dracunculus os off to The Netherlands for the weekend to visit some of his friends and indulge in the local beverage (which we only let you haff when it is ready).

Mind you I picked a choice weekend to go. Here is the shipping forecast:


THAMES DOVER WIGHT PORTLAND SOUTHWESTERLY 6 TO GALE 8 DECREASING 5 FOR A TIME, THEN BECOMING CYCLONIC SEVERE GALE 9 OR STORM 10, LATER BECOMING NORTHWESTERLY 4 OR 5. MODERATE OR ROUGH, OCCASIONALLY VERY ROUGH IN PORTLAND. RAIN OR SHOWERS. MODERATE OR GOOD


So the crew have been putting the multilingual sickbags out. Rather charmingly they have the nice message "Do you want..." on the front. "No, what I want is to finally stop puking my guts up and then I wish to curl up and die."

No I bloody don't


I have decided to at least have something to eat (see below), oh and 0.3mg of Hyoscine Hydrobromide for good measure (which probably means I'll be snoring in 20 minutes or so).
Dragon's Din-Dins
Stay tuned for more grumblings from the land of marijuana and horseporn where no-one wears a veil - assuming we don't sink.
