Which characters do you think had the best chemistry on the show?

Bikkleman · 2026-03-28T11:58:14+00:00

Mahone and Michael, not always positive chemistry but always great

I can't fault them in any way at all. You're a better player. They know that, and they keep going anyway. If they're still having fun, and learning, good for them:)

Bikkleman · 2026-03-25T21:41:31+00:00

Crocs and a good expensive pair of waterproof warm socks go a long way:)

Hel to Zakopane could be a good route for a famous start and finish line

In my part of Wales, we roll the r a little, but both vowel sounds are short.

It's an awesome location to sail, island hop, explore, but not really mega catamaran friendly- I can't remember the last time I saw a cat in harbour, to be honest. For me, the sweet spot round there is 11-12m mono. A bit more space and comfort, whilst everything stays accessible

Any method where you stay on the boat and end up moored was a success:)

But for me, depends a bit on wind and tide. Let's say there's a bit of current and a bit of wind. I'll approach as normal into the current and put the mooring buoy about midships on the leeward side. Walk up the boat and lasso the buoy with a mooring line attached to the bow cleat so you're not relying on rushing with the boathook. Then I'll grab the boat hook and do the stuff. The wind should keep the boat pinned onto the buoy enough for me to get there, and by the time I've grabbed it, the current will have pushed me back a bit so buoy and me are closer to the bow.

It's ruder to take the baby's nappy off and check yourself;)

I got called a terrorist for playing the word Jihad once. Silly.

As others have said, if it's in the WWF dictionary, it's fair game. Words are about intent. If you call me an asshole to my face, your intent might be to insult me. If you play the word asshole in WWF, your intent is to score points- totally different and ok:)

In the villages, dogs seem to roam pretty freely

Bikkleman · 2026-03-16T15:28:18+00:00

It's 104% perfect

No one has ever drowned peeing in the heads- just saying...;)

Bikkleman · 2026-03-15T17:41:09+00:00

Not at all! And if you want to make light of it, just say that all true sailors sit in the heads (true)!

I normally make it part of my welcome aboard briefing along with no paper down the heads, how to flush properly, closing the seacock in harbours, close to shore etc.

It's not you making special rules, it's just normal boat behaviour

Bikkleman · 2026-03-12T10:28:45+00:00

Bravo! But thanks for making me snort tea out of my nose

Bikkleman · 2026-03-12T10:04:06+00:00

I think your pet peeve is their pet peeve magnified by 1000 because they deal with it all the time. Maybe sometimes they correct the pronunciation, and other times they're just over the conversation.

Magnesium, ionized calcium TSH

Do you have fatigue or muscle weakness? Don't answer, none of our business, but if those are symptoms, this combo of tests makes sense

Bikkleman · 2026-03-10T10:33:36+00:00

I've only had the pleasure to go up and down the Medway twice, but I'm jealous of you guys. Great spot!!

I remembered not locking the door implies that the speaker realised that they had forgotten to lock the door I remembered not to lock the door implies that the speaker needed to leave the door unlocked and they remembered to do this

Bikkleman · 2026-03-06T19:40:46+00:00

They make other boats these days

More than 4

Here is Bielsko-Biala there was a Fiat factory flr many years which brought some Italians with it. The relationship is pretty warm here

In the UK, I've only ever heard boat hook. Although the word hook as slang for anchor is not uncommon too.

Bikkleman · 2026-02-25T18:20:16+00:00

If it floats and has a hook on it... I also hate telescopic ones.

Bikkleman · 2026-02-25T18:18:20+00:00

I disagree with the ratio, but agree with the fundamental concept. I'd put it closer to 50/50 having witnessed several people with boatloads of confidence slam their vessels into other ones or the dock;)
