Hmm...yes. As your K-wing met it's match against Boddingtons, My Black Seas
Baracuda fell victim to the power of Guiness during the party of '91. I
wish I could retell the tale, but the details remain a little fuzzy to this
day. Ahem.
More recently however, one thing happened. Me mum and my lovely wife pooled
to deliver the ISD for Christmas. By the time New Years had rolled around,
I had completed the main hull and had yet to move on the bridge structure.
Safely (or so I thought) on a makeshift building table in the basement, I
figured that it wouldn' come to harm during our celebrations. Well,
apparently at some point during the evening, the lads found out about it and
decided it needed some ballast. A couple days later when I got back to work
on it, I smelled something a little 'hoppy'. Looking down into the hull, I
had discovered why the normal task of gathering up beer caps had seemed so
light in the rest of the house.
Bibiet emptor.
