Diving- The good- Freah Sea food, keep fit. The possible bad shark bite, Free diving a bit to deep, ...
Working- Significant risk of bashing my own head against the wall with new old boring conspiracies or Bureaucracies

Is that a Friday? It'll give me some time to save up for a nice Floral Arrangement.
Will we all have to muster at the Maritime Museum to see you tipped into Davey Jones Locker from beneath the Aust flag of course, from the Quarter Deck, while your old Skipper says a few nice words about what a wag you have been. He would probably start by saying "James who"?

Oi loiks a bit of tradition, me.



BTW. it is a Friday. How is that for good luck? God willing, I may still be able to make it. I bet you haven't even got a Funeral Time yet. Typical.

I gather you're not left handed, Ron!
Left handed people can read and write upside down, in a mirror, backwards a lot easier than a right handed person.
Try writing SWIMS and MOW on a piece of paper and then turn it upside down. but you're right about NOON.

Oh no, so no Xmas presents for you either in 2050. The longevity calculators can ask some funny questions besides the usual about health, diet, exercise, medical history, strange things like, how you deal with stress, how many friends you have, how positive you are, one actually said I'd live one year less as I hardly drink alcohol, apparently a few drinks a week are a good thing!

That'd be very good actually because I can't even sail.

Actually you can singlehandedly sail around the world in 74 days 3 hrs and 35 mins, so you really can go "Around The World In 80 Days".

Party Pooper.

Naaaahhh ,I've lost interest in that rand. I think I may do Everest, South Pole & the Spanish Volcano instead, on the same trip.


I don't believe they have all been done by one & the same bloke.

Red Wine drinkers are supposed to last longer, summat to do with the heart.

Why the **** would anyone take steps to live longer these days defies logic.

All are welcome to my funeral, apparently the 10th of December, 2038. No flowers, but donations to the Mount Mee Yacht Club will be appreciated.

Is that the same bunch of Yachties affiliated with the Mount Kosciuszko V-Jays?

BTW, you'd better hurry if you wish to see "The Friends"/the good olde boys, who turn up to your funeral.
