I've had a few people say "so, what's your captain like?", well, here he is, Captain Ronald, at his very best.
He's great. This was taken at his 50th birthday party last night. People had to come dressed as their favourite cocktail and he was, yeah you guessed it, a Pink Lady. He was just hilarious the entire night, I have some seriously incriminating evidence against him now, some in the form of videos which I plan on posting quite soon, it would be selfish NOT to share them with the world.
It was such a great party and some of the outfits were hilarious. There was a big Scottish guy who appeared to just be in normal clothes... he looks at me and says "you haven't asked yet what I've come as" and lifts up his shirt revealing a big hairy tummy and inside his belly button a piece of wool taped down with some tape, aahahaha, I knew straight away what he was, I had seen the cocktail in my recipe book... a "Fuzzy Navel", classic. The next guy was a South African who came in with a Hello Kitty toy sewn onto his shoulder and a spray bottle attached to his jeans that he kept spraying the toy cat with... huh? He was a (forgive my language) "Wet Pussy", haha, here he is, the beaut...
I found a cute little chicken outfit in the basement so I was aaaaa Cockadoodledoo (it's a real cocktail, apparently)
Representing, with my SA flag and cleaning the floor, with my chicken feet, made of rubber gloves
I was in charge of the cocktails and, well, I think I did a WICKED job (if I MUST say so myself), we had Blue Hawaiian, Pina Colada, Pink Lady, Captain's Cocktail, Watermelon Mojito, Raspberry Rondezvous, Woo-Woo, Tropical Fruit Royale, Bees Knees and a Singapore Sling, here are some of them...
Captain: Cary, we have to do a washdown when we get back to the boat on Monday.
Cary: Um, are you KIDDING me, I've seen you do the can-can in a pink dress and frilly knickers, I officially do NOT have to do ANYTHING you say, so nuh-uh, no way not EVER.
