Shore leave.
Wayne.
We love it Wayne.
But the Poo Tin was forwarded/shared with a few of Dad's friends. It was a huge hit. We gave you cred. Hope you don't mind. We think it should be widely viewed.
Here's my sailor story:
I was telling my old condo's Prez (she was fairly well aquainted with Herbert Lom & Omar Sharif thanks to her older husband, a Naval Captain for 24 years - albeit as Chief Dentist on a Carrier & other large ships), and she told the story that every time shore leave came all of the sailors left the boat to go a-whorin' except her hubby and a few others.
Grandpa & 2 Peacetime-Navy Uncles of mine said the same thing. THEY didn't get involved...
So I said (and this is why you don't share a wine party with your betters and then speak) "Everybody I've heard from says they didn't do ashore a-whorin'! So if 90% did go, according to these stories, then somebody's tellin' fibs!"
They loved it.
God Bless the West and our way of Life - a way for Everyone who wants it
