Eight More Years, They Cried
Patrons are reminded that this rickety barge is kept afloat by the kindness of strangers. If you’d like to help it remain buoyant for a while longer, there’s an orange button below with which to monetise any love for this low establishment. Debit and credit cards are of course accepted. For those wishing to express their love regularly, there’s a monthly subscription option top left. Additionally, any Amazon shopping done via the search widget top right, or for Amazon US via this link, results in a small fee for your host at no extra cost to you. For newcomers wishing to know more about what’s been going on here for the last eight years, the reheated series and greatest hits are good places to start.
Again, thanks for the support, the comments, and the company.
Eight More Years, They Cried
Is that a demand or a lament?
Joking. Have a drink or two on me, Mr Thompson.
Is that a demand or a lament?
Depending who you ask, it could go either way. And cheers.
Tip jar hit. Eight more years!
Keep up the good work.

Consider the tip jar tickled – warm regards from chilly New England.
This is the only blog I visit where I always read all the comments.
Well worth some $
This is the only blog I visit where I always read all the comments.
The best reading is usually in the comments. It’s why this place is here. And thanks to all who’ve chipped in so far. It’s much appreciated.
Gladly. I must have spent hours here (lurking until now).
Tipped.
OT: Thought this was a joke and followed link.

Not a joke.
Thanks for running great blog.
Tip jar hit.
Just hit the Jar.
Well, I suppose Seagoing Lairs won’t pay for themselves:

Paypalled. Loving the ‘reheated’ series. Lots of stuff I missed.

I think it’s useful for newcomers and for people who have better things to do than read this blog every single week. And I’d like to think some of the points made in those posts, and in the comments by others, are still relevant. I don’t think of this place as a particularly ‘newsy’ blog, in that it isn’t dependent on what’s happening today or events of the week. It’s more about issues, attitudes, common conceits… that kind of thing.
And again, thanks to all the tip jar ticklers. It makes a big difference to how much time I can spend gassing with the likes of you lot.
I worked all through the winter
The weather brass and bitter
I put away a tenner…
Gotta have a talk with Stanley about these wages. I got blogs to support.

Even warmer regards from the unnaturally warm Wasatch Front, where my flowers are blooming a month out of season.
The spring bulbs can handle any cold that comes their way, but the roses, clematis, and honeysuckle, who have been cajoled into leafing out, cannot.
Yay.
Wasatch Front!!!
I’m headed there next week. Don’t you people be using up what little snow is still there to water your silly flowers. You’re supposed to get 5″ over the weekend. Do not touch. Us tourists pay a billion bucks of your taxes, you know.
Well, I suppose Seagoing Lairs won’t pay for themselves:
Calm Down, David, that is Not Jean-Luc Picard and you don’t get to play in the transporter room.
Instead rather, that’s oceanographer Jacques Piccard and astronaut Jean-Loup Chretien . . . .
Just keep your eyes on the prize.
Last I heard, the snow was “like buttah,” which isn’t as good as it sounds.
Seek out the resort with the highest altitude and you should be OK. They lie about their snow depths, BTW, so go with altitude.
More bad art, please. *hits tip jar*

Thanks for some good reads on boring train journeys.
Love monetized. Don’t tell the wife.
A token of appreciation, David.
Great blog, David.
Much overdue filthy lucre contribution finally dispatched. Hope one of these days I should emerge from the lurker chrysalis to mature commenter.
Kaching. 🙂
For making me laugh many times despite being on the tube at 7am.
Keep up the great work, David. I’d miss my weekly fix. *hits tip jar*
Thanks to all who’ve contributed. It’s what keeps this place here and is much appreciated.
