Chris And Mick Returning To The UK
November 21, 2009 – 2:27 pmChris and Mick will be arriving back into Heathrow Airport, London, on Friday 27th November. Their flight is Virgin VS220, which arrives at Terminal 3, landing at 11:05am.
Airport Welcome Party
For those of you who can make it to Heathrow, meet in Terminal 3 Arrivals in AMT Coffee from 10:30am onward this Friday (AMT Coffee is red number 11 on this map). If you’re not sure then call Phil Simmons on 07885-107254 who’ll be there and coordinating things.
Beers At Molesey, 7:30pm
For those of you who can’t make the airport, Chris and Mick will be at Molesey Boat Club from 7:30pm on this Friday evening. Come down, give them a great welcome home, and hear all about their stories.
More Parties
After the success of the post-Atlantic party Chris will I’m sure be organising a full welcome home party at Molesey in time. And Mick assures me that there’ll be a good bash at his family’s place, The Cowbridge House Inn in Boston, when he makes it home. Watch this space for details.

Mrs Miggins has baked you an enormous commemorative pie, in the shape of an enormous pie!

can we have some music hall to celebrate? I was thinking of the 3 silly twerps, only there are only two really since Corporal Cartwright is too dead to be very funny.
The slug balancer was always good but never quite got the costume right.
There was something crowning in the waterpipe - what was it again … ??

We’ll have a bit of a quiet do in Lagos for Mick’s return. Usual rules will apply: gum shields optional, incontinence pants compulsory!

Ah Bob, get Blackadder to fill your pipe for you. I’ve heard he does a good line in rough shag.
By Typical Lightweight Matelot on Nov 25, 2009
TLM it is an honour to partake in Blackadder script recitals with you!!
Are any of you guys going to come over the UK for any parties…?
By Biff on Nov 25, 2009
Biff
and you too sir.
Sadly, I’ll be here in Lagos, (the St Tropez of West Africa) til Christmas, then I’m heading off to drink myself to a standstill in Thailand. Next time I come to Blighty, I’m coming down to MBC to show all you Typical Lighweight Civvies (TLC’s) how to celebrate.
Cheers
TLM

Hi Guys
Hope Chris and Mick have a safe journey home (bet they’re glad they don’t have to row across the Atlantic to get to E.Molesey!) - and that they are given a really great welcome when they arrive. Sorry I won’t be able to be there - am in the thick of packing ready to move house soon, so am unable to come up to London/Surrey.
With kind regards - S from C

Bob Parkhurst: I want to see how a war is fought, so badly.
Captain Blackadder: Well, you’ve come to the right place, Bob. A war hasn’t been fought this badly since Olaf the Hairy, high chief of all the vikings, accidentally ordered 80,000 battle helmets with the horns on the inside.

Private Baldrick: oh look the pigeon’s got a message tied to it’s leg, now there’s a novelty.
Lt George: Oh really, is there a paper hat too?
