Remember Niamh only has room for 49 bods max. so no passengers I'm afraid.

I wouldn't hold my breath on that one if I were you,,,

Dear Cmdre Lynch,

If you could kindly include Damo to the invited guest list for the forth coming foreign trip to Chile.

Although retired for some years now you might remember damo for such things as pulling L/Sig Paul Newman through the vent of the cabin door the night of the ships Christmas party and then throwing him in the shower, being the DPO the night Eithnes ceremonial life belt went over the side the night of Frankie Troys 50th Birthday, sleeping through the fire of Oct 1987 on Eithne, telling the then president to **** off back up to the ward room while the president was pissed, and for breaking a sea rider engine while carrying a load of Garda and then asking them to paddle back to the ship.

Amongst his better attribues would be his wit, wicked sense of humour, charm and good looks although these may have faded a little over the years.

His dress sense has been open to question however so s suitable uniform would be required...a simple shirt a tie with suitable amount of chevrons, should be a few spare lying about due to the moratorium on promotion.

I would consider it a personal favour if you should consider my request as lest face it the place hasn't been the same without him

If your ever in hospital in kilkenny I'll fix you up witha clean bedpan in return

Your mate

HPT.

PS...he is small and doesn't take up much room..but is abit giggly when pissed.

Cheers pal........
They will have to take me now.
Will send postcards ............if I don`t get too pissed & forget

**hptmurphy** · 25th February 2010, 21:33

I do try...but I reckon they just wouldn't be able for us old timers given we were so politically incorrect, probably cause an international incident of some sort,

I take it Frank Lynch hasn't contacted you then?

Have bags packed & waiting by the phone.....should be any minute now
Really hope that I will be involved in a international incident....looking forward to it....

I'd say the delay is due to the civil servants not using phones as part of industrial action.

You may have to wait a bit more...

**ZULU** · 26th February 2010, 15:35

Or the non-issuing of passports !

Not worried about waiting .......was trained in the HURRY UP & WAIT !

Or the non-issuing of passports !

Maby I can get one of the Isreali ones ... they seem to have more than enough of them

i believe that trip down to south America is gone for this year . damo u will have to do with killybegs instead ...

**Goldie fish** · 2nd March 2010, 00:08

There was a comment passed during the trip by Niamh to Asia that most of those who were after visiting Hong Kong and transited Suez with the Irish Naval service had yet to see the beauty of Rathmullen...

**golden rivet** · 3rd March 2010, 22:21

fine gael says its a waste of money.. has cowen said anything yet.... the crew are in limbo at the moment... flanagan from fine gael as that fellow called it a BOAT he has to be reprimanded....

**blaisec** · 3rd March 2010, 22:39

Bombard Bernard Allens office with letters of protest, and let him know that he is fcuking with other peoples personal lives, while trying to score political advantage. Fcuking Blue Shirt!!

**Goldie fish** · 3rd March 2010, 22:56

His arguement actually holds no weight. The South American trip is just as important to the state as Fisheries protection, and probably costs less...
