Captain Caveman 0 Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Well done everyone it was a tough choice as in my opinion everyone was a winner! But I finally made an executive decision and the winner of The caption the picture is ..... First the Bad news, it has taken us all week to get to this stage. The Good news is we have found that "Annoying Squeak". It was the co-pilots arm rest. . Over to you mike well done. I thought that annoying squeak was my back. And finally a bone to pick with Brett, I am an ex-stevedore worked at A.B.P in uk. Stay calm and have a cup of tea! Sorry about the long rant! Link to post Share on other sites
brett 2,310 Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Nice job Mike, I got a real kick out of that one too. @Glen-Stay calm, cuppa tea is on me No offense against the hard working stevedore's across the world. I used to live on the south shore of Long Island in NY and there are miles of docking areas for pleasure boats. Each Fall they(the dock workers) pull out all the boats and stack 'em on wood like in the pic or on big metal shelf racks. These dock guy's have no association with the Stevedore, dockworker, docker, dock labourer, wharfie and longshoreman that unload/load ships. It is my understanding that a stevedore works from the ship and the longshoremen is on the dock, is that right? BTW-Thanks for one of the shortest rants I have seen in quite awhile.

Captain Caveman 0 Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 No problem Brett I didn't take it personally. In the uk a stevedore is the general term for dock workers, I was unloading and loading both on ship and quayside. Its seems quite a rant when I use my blackberry to check-in on here to catch up on the goings on of Mutleys Hangar. I'm checking every couple of hours while I'm out and about!

brett 2,310 Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 It's good to know you have a sense of humor because I was wondering, you mentioned you were an ex-stevedore, you don't happen to be working at the airport where the above pic was taken now.........

Captain Caveman 0 Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 @Brett luckily no I don't work wherever this pic was taken @Alan that's correct we (they) are more commonly known as dockers but I prefer to call it stevedore! Each to their own! And nothing like a good skive!!! Link to post Share on other sites
