Black Hearted Pearl Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 Last time me mate went to London, he brought me back a Tall Ship. Alas it be a nice prize, but I can get a crystal of the "Mayflower" in the states. He has an extra day this time, so I be lookin to send him on a short adventure and bring me back some treasure. Any suggestions? ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails.

Maraudin Sparky Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 A whole tallship? That must have been difficult to fit in his suitcase! Tho seriously, I guess you could always send him along to the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, I'm sure that could have something good... So long as he doesn't buy one of those oafish t-shirts that says "My XXX(insert relation) went to London, and all he bought me was this lousy t-shirt"... I really hate those. Makes me feel like running the person through! You never know what is enough unless you know what is more than enough.

Black Hearted Pearl Posted May 29, 2004 Author Share Posted May 29, 2004 Me mates been there and back since the first post. He did bring me back a tall ship again. This time a glass ship in a glass bottle called the "Mary Rose". It is again from the Mayflower glass company in London. Glass ships in glass bottles and a house filled with 3 rowdy boys. ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails.

Charity Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 LOL, those things make beautyful collectables though. I have a small model ship, but nothing too special. It's supposed to be the Bounty, but whatever it is, it's nice :) My golen Aztec coin will go nicely with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
