Sir Galahad

Well, how does cutting his balls off & feeding em to the cats sound? In all seriousness, I'd play it devious. Hacking into his e-mail is going too far, but I'd join & start flirting with him & see exactly what he does. If he tries to arrange a date, go with it, then turn up 10 mins after your arranged time to let the games begin.

Mmmm, interesting theory. Though it's very hard to tell sometimes. I guess we'll find out soon enough.

So the honeymoon is over, Travers & Granger are parted once more. I'm sure they will have a little get together now & again since they seem to be in the same stretch of water, but probably not as often as each other would like. On the plus side, Travers seemed to get away with his wee ploy with the American ship, I think the Admiral approved! It certainly didn't take Georgie boy long to find a new f*** buddy, in the same day he got on board no less. These Navy boys don't seem to waste any time do they! Devlin does seem a bit strange though, maybe he just does it for release, who can say. I expect there's a story there somewhere. :2hands: Mutiny on the Desperate & our boy has got to go in & sort the whole bloody mess out. Very interested to see who the ringleaders behind that were. I wonder if the officers may have egged the men on a tad. I guess we'll find out in the next chapter. Bloody marvelous Mark as always.

If other comments hadn't been made then I may have swallowed that point, grudgingly. However, points have been made by religious right wingers before voting for the final even commenced. Then suddenly we have the biggest upset in idol history. Let's not mince words about this, Adam was the clear favourite from the beginning, then suddenly it's turned on its head. That certainly looks suspicious to me. That said, the real poll starts now in CD & download sales. Lets see who the real winner is 12-24 months from now. I know who my money's on!

No necessarily, but in this case it was so blatant even the normally straight laced media are hinting at it. Mmm, lets think about it, you have flamboyant, make-up wearing Adam or you have Allen's Christian picket fence lifestyle. Which one are the holy rollers going to vote for? They are after all, the ones that have made an issue of Adams sexuality, which is why now people are screaming homophobia. This is a singing competition, and by a long distance Adam was by far the best and most original of the entire series. Trust me if Allen had been the better contestant I would have no problem with the result, but he wasn't even close. He has a pleasant enough voice I suppose, but he is Conference division to Adam's Premier League.

Yeah, I can only echo that, result doesn't air here until Friday!! This is a shocking result, but as other people have said it's not surprising. We were debating this on another thread two weeks ago, and the consensus was that Adam wouldn't win due to the holy rollers voting! Shock-horror, what happens? But like Chris Daughtry before him, make no mistake, Adam is going to be hugely successful IMHO.

Maybe he wore it for a bet!

That's what I like to see, lots of gratuitous sex. It looks like the honeymoon is still going, and what a surprise that Travers wanted Granger to play hide the sausage! That was certainly a turn up for the books. Travers still gets quite defensive when George pays him a compliment, even when he was admiring the way he handled his ship. I guess he just not used to receiving them. It was nice gesture on Grangers part to go out of his way and talk to Chilton the way he did, not many guys in his position would do that for someone of lower rank. And inviting him to a dinner party no less, I just wonder if the young bit of totty will become part of the main course. That was quick thinking to seize the American ship and fly it under British colours to protect it from the Algerians, nasty little buggers they were if my history serves me right. Great chapter Mark.

Normally yes, but this one's a bit of a hottie. So I just stroke his.....erm...tail!

Believe me, there are a few things I could say here, and I have no problems being rude! [Pats DragonFire on back] That said, what's it gonna be like in here when she does have a baby? WWIII?

It's not for anyone here to judge you. But personally, I can't see that you did anything worng, certainly nothing to be ashamed of. So don't sweat it. Anyways dude, it's not Wednesday yet!! Stop fretting

Happy Birthday, Myr! ENJOY YOUR DAY!

When I predicted wedding bells I wasn't expecting it in the next chapter!! Ok let's see if I'm on a prediction roll, um, I'm gonna win the lottery & be swept off my feet my a hunky guy with a big willy! Will keep you updated on the progress! Ok, a surprise wedding, a quickie with his new bride then back to sea for Georgie, never a dull moment in his life eh? And who should be the captain of his transport to Gibraltar, but another Wilcox, they do get around these guys don't they? Looks like our lieutenant managed to put him in his place though, particularly liked Grangers departing line to Capt Wilcox! This Roberts sounds like a bit of a hunk, I wonder if we'll be seeing any more of him in the forthcoming chapters. Good to see Travers making a surprise appearance, hope to see more of the hunky captain in the near future...hint, hint!

Well, whatever next? Fancy cruising the Royal court! It's just not done in civilized society. It certainly didn't take Granger long to find a hot piece of ass, and his father inadvertently encouraging him was too funny! It seems as if the feud with the Wilcox's continues, but at least it was spotted before he was assigned back to Barracuda again. Flag Lieutenant in the Mediterranean, George has picked up a plum job, wonder if he'll bump into anyone familiar! Caroline is a little minx isn't she, though far too much detail for my innocent eyes!! But it looks as though she got what she wanted, and no doubt there will be wedding bells in the not to distant future. Gotta laugh at his parents being pleased, only in England.

Happy 46th Birthday, Graeme!

:2hands: Excellent first chapter Mark & we're in the thick of the action straight away. I thought Ballvin would be Grangers' latest conquest, but alas a cannon ball had other ideas! On the other hand the captain seems more than fond of our lieutenant, but again he's to be posted to another ship, leaving Georgie high & dry...for the moment! So Granger has his first battle scars, you gotta feel for him. Having his Mother hovering around all the time I'm guessing, is not exactly what the poor guy wanted!!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, Tom!

Happy 50th46th Birthday, Mark!! Maybe it's time the clock started going backwards!!

Well I love to take my time on the appetiser, before enjoying a nice meaty main course!

I love my surprise Of course Sir Galahad is the most valiant of all knights, and would go out of his way to save any hottie in distress! :2hands: Do you think modesty is my forte? Aside from the obvious, excellent chapter. Who would've thought Max's parents would have stooped so low, to manipulate a situation like that? I have no doubt they would never have stepped in if Marcel & Robbie weren't there. Both his Mom & Lark got what was coming to them. It was good of JP to keep his word, I thought he might get a bit funny with Marcel seeing Max, but the man was as good as his word. Excellent story as always Mark, just a shame it's come to an end. No doubt we'll be seeing this dysfunctional family again. Look forward to it.

Hi Indigene, and welcome to GA,

Happy Birthday, Kevin!

Happy Birthday, Tom!

I'm talented, but NOT that talented!
